RFID Modules and Card Readers｜The Best Choice for SI, OEM, and ODM Integration

The rise of smart buildings, factories, and self-service devices has accelerated demand for RFID-based access and authentication. Traditional standalone systems are no longer sufficient. System integrators (SI), equipment manufacturers, OEM, and ODM need flexible building blocks to quickly embed RFID into their products and solutions.

Pongee's RFID modules, card readers, and reader/writer devices are designed to shorten development cycles and reduce integration costs.

Challenges in Integration and Development

• Multiple standards: EM / H.I.D. ,  Mifare, and FeliCa coexist, making compatibility difficult.
• High development costs: Building RFID hardware from scratch requires heavy R&D.
• Legacy compatibility: Existing devices are hard to upgrade to support new standards.
• Limited enterprise integration: Traditional access logs cannot connect to ERP, WMS, or HIS.

Pongee RFID Solutions

• Multi-frequency support: Modules and readers support both 125kHz EM / H.I.D. and 13.56MHz Mifare/ FeliCa, solving compatibility issues.
• Modular design: Standardized interfaces enable embedding into access devices, kiosks, vending machines, and industrial controllers.
• RFID Card Readers / Reader-Writers:
  • Card Readers: Installed at doors, gates, or checkpoints for instant authentication.
  • Reader/Writers: Support card issuance, updating, and deletion.
  Together with modules and controllers, they form a complete chain from components to end-user devices.
• OEM / ODM services:
  • OEM: Clients adopt Pongee modules or readers and market them under their own brand.
  • ODM: Pongee customizes modules or devices for specific industries.
• Flexible development: API-ready, allowing SI, OEM, and ODM clients to customize applications.
• Data integration: Supports ERP, WMS, and HIS connectivity for attendance, asset, and personnel management.
