Notice

1. Confirm the electric voltage (DC12V) and differentiate positive anode and cathode of power supply

2. When external Power is used, make sure sharing the power with Controller Box or using the same GND

3. When the distance between card reader and controller is more than 50m, please use Power Line with at least 1.5 square cm Dia, or using several parallel Network wires.

Product Overview

The J103 is a professional waterproof touchscreen RFID keypad, positioning itself as a premium choice among RFID readers for high-reliability access control in both indoor and outdoor environments. Encased in a durable silver zinc alloy housing with a sleek ABS cover, this compact 86×86×18 mm device balances aesthetic appeal with vandal-resistant durability, meeting rugged standards similar to our industrial RFID Laundry Tags. The integrated backlit touch interface ensures effortless operation in low-light conditions, supported by a dual-color LED indicator and an internal buzzer for immediate visual and audible user feedback.

Versatile Credential Management

Engineered for versatile credential management, the J103 primarily supports 125KHz (TK4001/EM4100) proximity cards, including standard ABS Clamshell Cards, with an optional 13.56MHz configuration available for Mifare-based security projects or applications compatible with Google Review Cards technology. The reader delivers rapid authentication with a response speed of less than 0.2 seconds and a stable read range of 3–8 cm, ensuring smooth pedestrian throughput for high-traffic entrances.

System Integration & Power

System integration is streamlined through standard Wiegand 26/34 outputs, while RS232 and RS485 interfaces are available as optional configurations to suit specific controller requirements. The device supports flexible wiring distances—up to 100m for Wiegand and 1200m for RS485—making it adaptable to various building topologies. Operating on a wide DC 9V–16V power range (12V typical), the unit maintains a low power profile with a working current of approximately 70 mA.

Installation & Environment

Built to withstand demanding climates, the J103 operates within a temperature range of -25°C to +75°C and up to 90% humidity. Installation is straightforward: the motherboard is secured to the wall using the provided plastic expansion plugs and screws after loosening the panel with a standard Phillips screwdriver. For long-distance deployments exceeding 50m, it is recommended to use power cables with a diameter of at least 1.5 mm² to ensure stable voltage delivery.
