Key Capabilities
Fast Face Recognition
Hikvision specifies face recognition in less than 0.2 seconds per user with an accuracy rate above 99%. The recognised working distance is approximately 0.3 to 1.5 metres, supporting quick touch-free entry at compatible controlled doors.
Face, M1 Card, PIN & QR Authentication
Multiple authentication methods allow users to enter using facial recognition, 13.56 MHz M1 cards, PIN codes or QR credentials. QR codes can be read through the dedicated QR module or camera according to the configured system.
4.5-Inch Touchscreen Interface
The 4.5-inch LCD touchscreen provides 480 × 854 resolution for credential entry, prompts and terminal operation. The QRE1 version does not use a separate physical call button, helping keep the front panel compact and focused on touchscreen access control.
3,000 Face & Card Capacity
The terminal stores up to 3,000 users, 3,000 facial templates and 3,000 cards, together with up to 150,000 access events. This provides suitable capacity for homes, offices and small-to-medium commercial sites.
Ethernet, Wi-Fi & Bluetooth
The terminal supports 10/100 Mbps wired Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, providing flexibility when integrating the unit into a supported Hikvision access-control environment. Wired Ethernet can also be used with PoE for a combined network and power connection.
Door Control & Intercom Integration
Lock control, exit-button input, door-contact input, alarm interfaces, RS-485, Wiegand and two-way audio support allow the terminal to operate as part of a complete access-control and intercom installation rather than functioning only as a standalone credential reader.

Why Choose the DS-K1T344MBWX-QRE1
The DS-K1T344MBWX-QRE1 combines several access technologies in one compact terminal, reducing the need for separate face, card and QR readers around the same doorway. Fast facial recognition, anti-spoofing, M1 card support, PIN entry and QR authentication give administrators flexibility when assigning credentials to staff, residents and visitors. Standard PoE can simplify cabling, while Wi-Fi and Bluetooth provide additional connectivity options where appropriate. Door-lock, exit-button, door-contact, alarm and Wiegand interfaces allow the unit to participate directly in a complete access-control installation. Available through Security Wholesalers, this model is particularly useful where a weather-resistant terminal with flexible authentication methods and straightforward single-door integration is required.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: The DS-K1T344MBWX-QRE1 uses 13.56 MHz M1 cards. Confirm the existing credential technology before ordering, particularly if the site currently uses 125 kHz EM cards or another card format that is not interchangeable with M1.
Buyer Tip: Plan the electric lock and power arrangement together with the terminal. PoE can power the access terminal and supported door lock arrangements, but lock voltage, current, fail-safe or fail-secure behaviour, cable length and emergency-release requirements must all be checked as part of the complete door design.
