Secugen Unity 20 Serial Fingerprint Scanne Description

The Unity 20 Serial is an affordable, fully programmable standalone fingerprint recognition system designed for seamless user identification and verification. Equipped with a rugged, industry-leading fingerprint sensor, it ensures secure and reliable fingerprint capture, enrollment, matching, and storage—all within a single, compact device. With RS-232 serial connectivity via a 9-pin DB-9 connector, the Unity 20 Serial easily integrates into various applications, including Point of Sale (POS) terminals, time and attendance systems, and other devices that require serial communication. As part of the versatile Unity family, this all-in-one fingerprint module offers complete biometric functionality, operating autonomously without the need for external host systems. Perfect for a wide range of industries, it provides a robust and cost-effective solution for secure biometric authentication.
