The iButton reader is a device designed to read and communicate with iButton tags. It allows for the retrieval of unique identification data stored within the iButton tags, enabling various identification and tracking applications.
The iButton reader typically consists of a probe or contact surface that makes direct physical contact with the iButton tag for data transfer. The reader is connected to a compatible system or device, such as a computer, controller, or access control system, via a wired connection.
The reader harness, also known as a cable harness, is the wiring assembly that connects the iButton reader to the compatible system or device. It ensures secure and reliable data transmission between the reader and the connected system.
