DOD Compatibility: Memory Card Reader

I work for the US Department of Defense, specifically the Air Force, and I need a replacement for an old failed CAC card reader. It works out. Access is allowed. plug and play; and of course the adaptation of the service-related software.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Flimsy

For the military: Don't waste your time with other card readers

I've tried other card readers but am having trouble installing the drivers. This card reader works very well on Linux and Windows (haven't tried it on a Mac). This is the same card reader that all the IT people in my hospital use.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Pros
  • Nice looks
Cons
