The Grandstream GDS37XX-RFID-RD is a desktop USB reader that reads 125kHz EM4100 cards so you can enroll them in GDS Manager. It suits IT or security staff handling cards for many users across GDS3710 and GDS3705 door systems.

====

The Grandstream GDS37XX-RFID-RD is a small USB reader that sits next to the administrator's PC. It reads 125kHz cards and passes their numbers to GDS Manager, so you can build the card list for GDS3705 and GDS3710 door systems without standing at each door.

Grandstream GDS37XX-RFID-RD key facts

One card or a whole batch

For a single person, open their member profile in GDS Manager, click Start Read Card and swipe.

Cardholders can then be sorted into up to 50 groups.

When it pays off

Issuing hundreds of cards at a hospital or an office park in Riyadh, or managing several entrances from one security room.

Reader, card or in-wall kit?

The GDS37XX-RFID-RD stays on the desk; it is never mounted at the door and cannot release a lock. The GDS37XX-CARD is the credential staff carry, and the GDS37XX-INWALL flush-mounts the intercom. If the LED is on but a card will not read, it is most likely a 13.56MHz NFC card, which is enrolled on a GDS372x unit directly or through the SecureAccess app.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the GDS37XX-RFID-RD read NFC or MIFARE cards?

No, only 125kHz EM4100. NFC 13.56MHz cards are enrolled on a GDS372x unit or through the SecureAccess app.

Is the reader installed at the door?

No. It is a desk reader for enrolling cards in GDS Manager; the intercom reads cards and opens the door.
