Proxmark 3 RDV2
Introduction
The Proxmark 3 is a dedicated, highly-capable multi-tool for RFID analysis.
Since its original creation in 2007, there have been huge leaps in the electronics field. The Proxmark 3 RDV2 is a fully revised, modernized version of the already powerful tool.
mRedesigned from the ground up to be more capable, portable and stable, the Proxmark 3 RDV is the ultimate RFID testing toolkit.
Overview
The Proxmark 3 RDV2 is a powerful, complete RFID platform providing reading, writing, analysis, snooping, replaying, emulation, modulation, demodulation, decoding, encoding, decryption, encryption for any RFID system operating in the 125KHz, 134KHz and 13.56MHz frequencies.
Backed by a strong community of active development, it is regarded as the ultimate tool for RFID study.
Notorious for its complexity in manufacturing, calibrating, tuning and upgrading, the Proxmark 3 RDV represents a stable, reliable, affordable and all-in-one solution to get onto the Proxmark platform.
