Ceiling-Mounted RFID Access Control Reader | Developer-Friendly API & SDK

 When you’re building an RFID access control system, hardware shouldn’t dictate your architecture. You need a reader that installs cleanly, integrates fast, and stays reliable when people are constantly moving.

The Cykeo Ceiling-Mounted RFID Access Control Reader is designed exactly for that kind of environment — crowded, sensitive, and always active.

Built with RFID Access Control Developers in Mind

This reader is not just a “tag detector.” From a software perspective, it behaves like a clean, well-documented access control endpoint that fits naturally into modern systems.

Ceiling RFID Access Control Reader with Developer APIs

API Interfaces That Don’t Get in the Way

Cykeo provides both RESTful APIs and native APIs, making it easy to integrate the reader into:

  • RFID access control platforms
  • Building management systems (BMS)
  • Personnel tracking software
  • Security and authorization backends
  • Enterprise IoT systems

Whether your system is cloud-based or deployed on-premise, the interface stays consistent and predictable.

Java & C# Support for Cross-Platform Development

Most access control software still lives in Java and C# environments, and this reader aligns perfectly with that reality.

  • Java for backend services, microservices, and cross-platform deployments
  • C# for Windows-based access control software and enterprise security systems

This makes it easier to reuse existing code, SDKs, and development habits instead of adapting to niche environments.

High-Traffic Access Control Tracking

Secondary Development SDK: Control the Logic, Not Just the Hardware

For developers, the real value comes from the Secondary Development SDK.

Instead of fixed behavior, you get a full development toolkit that allows:

  • Custom access rules
  • Event-triggered logic (entry, exit, dwell time)
  • Integration with proprietary identity or authorization systems
  • Custom firmware or application-level behavior

This is especially useful when access control is more than just “open or close a door.”

Designed for Crowded & Sensitive Environments

Ceiling installation isn’t just about looks — it directly improves system reliability in busy spaces.

Ideal Deployment Scenarios

This reader works particularly well in:

  • Fitting rooms (track who enters or exits restricted zones)
  • High-end retail stores (discreet access & staff-only areas)
  • Office buildings (employee flow and zone-based access)
  • Security areas (archives, labs, restricted rooms)

By staying overhead, the reader avoids physical interference, reduces tampering, and keeps entrances visually clean.

Passive, Automatic Tracking

Once deployed, the system can automatically track:

  • Personnel movement
  • Document or asset circulation
  • Entry and exit events

No card swiping pauses, no visible reader interaction — just continuous data flow for your access control logic.

Developer SDK for Custom Access Control Logic

Stable Wired Communication via RJ45

From an infrastructure standpoint, the reader keeps things simple and reliable:

  • RJ45 Ethernet ×1
  • Stable wired networking for 24/7 operation
  • Ideal for fixed installations and secure networks

For access control systems, wired Ethernet remains the preferred choice for stability and security — especially in offices and restricted areas.

A Ceiling RFID Reader That Fits Real Access Control Systems

This ceiling-mounted RFID reader is built for developers who care about clean system design:

  • Friendly APIs
  • Java & C# compatibility
  • Real SDK for secondary development
  • Discreet installation for high-traffic areas

If you’re developing RFID access control, personnel tracking, or asset movement systems, this reader integrates smoothly without forcing compromises on your architecture.

Can Android NFC Read RFID Tags?

图片
Android NFC and RFID Tags: Technical Principles and Compatibility NFC (Near Field Communication) is a short-range, high-frequency wireless communication technology operating at 13.56 MHz, with a typical transmission range within 10 cm.  RFID (Radio Frequency Identification), on the other hand, uses radio waves to transfer data wirelessly for identification purposes, with a broader frequency spectrum including low-frequency (LF), high-frequency (HF), and ultra-high-frequency (UHF) bands.   From a technical standpoint, Android NFC devices mainly support high-frequency RFID tags (13.56 MHz) that comply with ISO 14443 and ISO 15693 standards—such as MIFARE tags.  However, most Android devices cannot directly read low-frequency (125 kHz) or UHF (860–960 MHz) RFID tags, which are common in warehouse management. Reading such tags typically requires external UHF RFID modules or specific SDK integration for Android compatibility. Real-World Applications of Android NFC Rea...

Make Inventory Management Easier with RFID Stickers

图片
More and more businesses are turning to RFID stickers to streamline inventory management.  In this article, we’ll explore the value and practical applications of RFID stickers in modern inventory systems.   RFID Stickers: The Smart “ID Card” for Inventory RFID stickers are compact, flexible RFID tags made up of an antenna and a chip. These stickers store key product information such as unique ID, production date, batch number, and specifications.  By using radio frequency signals, they communicate with RFID readers. Once within the reader’s range, the RFID sticker automatically transmits data — quickly and without manual alignment. Unlike traditional barcodes, RFID stickers can be read without line-of-sight, allow for bulk scanning of multiple items simultaneously, and work effectively even in harsh environments.  This greatly improves inventory accuracy and operational efficiency. Key Advantages of RFID Stickers in Inventory Management Fast Inventory Checks Tr...
