ACR40T SIM-Sized Smart Card Reader
← View all smart card and RFID readers
The ACR40T is ACS's compact, high-speed USB contact SIM-sized smart card reader with a sliding smart card entry slot. It supports ISO 7816 Class A, B and C smart cards, T=0/T=1 protocols, and a wide variety of memory cards, and is compliant with CCID, PC/SC and Microsoft WHQL. Unlike the full-size ACR40U, the ACR40T has a single SIM-sized (2FF) card slot, making it suited to embedded and kiosk-style integrations rather than general desktop use. It's available in Standard and Premium (with a built-in button) configurations. BSD Infotech supplies both across India with bulk-order support — request pricing.
Overview
The ACR40T's competitive advantage lies in its compact size and sliding smart card entry slot, allowing for hassle-free integration into terminals and custom hardware. It supports firmware upgrade and connects via both USB Type-A and USB Type-C.
