Product Details
The Hikvision DS-K1201AMF is an IP65-rated fingerprint and Mifare card reader that holds up to 9,500 fingerprints and connects to a Hikvision access controller over RS-485. It can authenticate by fingerprint, by card, or by requiring both together, and its slim upright body fits a standard single gang box. For Egyptian offices, factories and clinics it solves the oldest problem in access control: a card tells you which card went through the door, while a fingerprint tells you which person did. Order the DS-K1201AMF today from Speed4Trading with genuine Hikvision stock, official warranty and fast delivery across Egypt.
Why Buy the Hikvision DS-K1201AMF?
Card sharing is the quiet failure of most access systems — one employee taps two cards, and your attendance and security records stop meaning anything. The DS-K1201AMF puts a fingerprint sensor on the door, so a credential cannot be lent, lost or left at home. With a 9,500-fingerprint capacity it scales well past a single office, and because matching is handled in under a second even at busy shift changes, the queue keeps moving. The IP65 housing and -40 °C to +70 °C rating also mean it survives positions that would kill an indoor-only reader.

Perfect For
Factories and workshops where shift attendance has to be honest and card swapping must stop. Offices and finance departments protecting archive and server rooms. Clinics and laboratories where only named staff should reach medicine or sample storage. Warehouses and distribution centres on staff doors and stores. Gated compounds using fingerprints for residents on a pedestrian gate. Schools and training centres restricting labs and administration areas.
Easy Installation & Compatibility
The DS-K1201AMF mounts to a standard single gang box, which keeps installation tidy on both new and refurbished doors. It takes 12 VDC power and reports to a Hikvision access controller over an RS-485 link at 19,200 bps. Enrolment, cardholder records, fingerprint templates, schedules and reporting are handled through the controller and Hikvision software such as iVMS-4200 or Hik-Partner Pro, so this door's events sit in the same log as your card-only doors. Note that this model does not provide a Wiegand output, so plan on an RS-485 connection to a compatible Hikvision panel.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can it work without a controller?
No. It is a reader, so it must be connected over RS-485 to an access controller that holds the rules and drives the lock.
Does it have a Wiegand output?
No Wiegand output is specified for this model — it communicates over RS-485, so pair it with a compatible Hikvision controller.
How many fingerprints can it store?
Up to 9,500, which is unusually high for a door reader and suits large factories and campuses.
Can I require both a card and a fingerprint?
Yes. Card, fingerprint and card-plus-fingerprint modes are all supported, configured from the controller.
