The multi-technology CEM S610e IP card readers installed at Khalifa Port are IP 66 rated to protect against dust and water. The S610e reader displays meaningful user messages such as ‘Wrong Time-Zone and ‘Card Expiring’ and features a keypad for additional PIN code security. The S610e reader also offers the highest level of reliability as it features an internal database for offline card validation. The reader’s database holds up to 200,000 card holder records internally and up to 8,000 records offline. This means that should communication be temporarily lost at the Khalifa Port, staff can still validate cards throughout the port at all times.
