The ACR38F USB reader from ACS is based on the popular ACR38 electronics, housed in a lightweight frame that fits comfortably into a standard PC 3.5" drive bay. This reader is fully PC/SC, CCID and EMV Level 1 compliant and supports all ISO 7816 microprocessor-based smartcards as well as many popular memory cards.

Ideal for many smartcard-based applications on desktop PCs, the reader comes complete with WHQL approved Windows drivers, as well as support for other operating systems such as Linux.

The ACR38F is a cost-effective way of incorporating a smartcard reader inside a PC for added convenience and security. This model has a smart black fascia and comes complete with a captive cable designed to connect to a standard external USB port.

Note that this reader has the very latest V112 firmware - non-PC/SC software written for older versions of the ACR38, or applications using low-cost memory cards may need to be updated slightly.
