SIM-sized smart cards. Carry the reader
with your credentials in your pocket or on
your key ring and plug it into your PC via the
USB port to access your sensitive data. The
reader is based on the same technology and
drivers as the OMNIKEY® desktop product
family and is therefore just as easy to
integrate into your application.
The OMNIKEY® 6121 is designed to meet
all major standards like ISO 7816, USB
CCID, PC / SC, HBCI (Home Banking
Computer Interface) and many more.

standardized interfaces like PC / SC. The
USB CCID support makes integration into
an existing system simple by connecting
host and smart card reader without
needing additional drivers.
