📚 What's a SAM?

SAM stands for Security Access Module — think of it like a tiny, ultra-secure computer chip that acts as a digital vault. Just like your house might have different keys for the front door, back door, and garage, a SAM holds different "digital keys" for various security functions. Government agencies and secure companies use SAMs to make smart cards that can authenticate users, encrypt sensitive data, and create digital signatures that can't be forged.

The S10175 adds three separate security vaults to your SpringCard encoder. Instead of having one key controlling everything, you get three independent security domains that prevent single points of failure in government and enterprise applications.

Why Three Security Slots Matter

Layered security architecture: Like having separate keys for your house, car, and office safe — each SAM slot handles different security functions independently. One manages authentication, another handles encryption, and the third provides digital signatures.

Government-grade compliance: Federal agencies require compartmentalized security where different classification levels use separate cryptographic domains. Three SAM slots let you meet FIPS 201, Common Criteria EAL4+, and DoD security standards.

Failure redundancy: If one security module fails or gets compromised, the other two keep working. Critical for organizations that cannot afford security system downtime.

Perfect for High-Volume Operations

Eliminate production delays: Government agencies, universities, and large corporations can produce student IDs, employee badges, and transit passes without stopping to reconfigure security modules.

Support diverse security needs: Healthcare systems can encode cards for different access levels, payment systems, and HIPAA-compliant applications all in the same production run.

⚠️ Important: SpringCard Crazy Writer HSP Required

The S10175 is an extension for the SpringCard Crazy Writer HSP contactless encoder only. Your printer must have this encoder installed before you can add the S10175 expansion kit.

🏭 Production Efficiency

Organizations processing thousands of secure credentials monthly see immediate ROI through eliminated production delays and reduced labor costs. The S10175 transforms batch processing into continuous production capability.

    Common Questions

    From our experience with multi-SAM encoding installations, these are the questions we get most often:

    What does the Evolis S10175 extension kit do?
    The S10175 adds three Secure Access Module (SAM) slots to your SpringCard Crazy Writer HSP contactless encoder. This lets you use multiple cryptographic keys simultaneously for secure smart card encoding, eliminating the need to manually swap SAM cards between different credential types.
    Production insight: Organizations typically see 3-5x productivity improvements in multi-application credential production by eliminating manual SAM swapping bottlenecks.
    Is Specialist ID an authorized Evolis dealer?
    Yes, we're an authorized Evolis distributor with direct access to genuine products, technical support, and warranty coverage. This means you get authentic S10175 kits with full manufacturer backing, professional installation support, and genuine warranty protection.
    Authorization advantage: As authorized dealers, we provide comprehensive security implementation support and can handle complex multi-SAM configurations that require deep Evolis system knowledge.
    Which Evolis printers are compatible with the S10175?
    The S10175 works with Evolis Primacy, Primacy 2, Zenius, and Quantum printers, but only when equipped with the SpringCard Crazy Writer HSP contactless encoder. The encoder must be installed first before adding the S10175 extension.
    Compatibility tip: We provide complete system compatibility verification before ordering to ensure your specific printer model supports both the SpringCard encoder and S10175 extension.
    Why would I need three SAM slots instead of one?
    Three SAM slots allow you to encode cards for multiple applications with different security requirements without stopping production to manually swap SAM modules. This eliminates bottlenecks in high-volume environments that produce multi-application credentials.
    Efficiency advantage: Government agencies and large corporations processing thousands of credentials monthly see immediate ROI through eliminated production delays and enhanced security management.
    What's included in the S10175 kit and what do I need to buy separately?
    The S10175 kit includes the 3 SAM slots extension board, mounting screws, spacers, and installation guide. You need to purchase SAM modules separately, and you must have the SpringCard Crazy Writer HSP encoder already installed in your printer.
    Procurement tip: We help customers identify the correct SAM modules for their specific security applications and can coordinate complete system delivery to avoid compatibility issues.
    Is professional installation required for this product?
    Professional installation is strongly recommended and often required to maintain security certifications and warranty coverage. This ensures the hardware integrates correctly with the SpringCard module and preserves compliance standards.
    Security compliance: Professional installation includes security validation testing and compliance documentation that's essential for government and financial applications.
    What types of security modules work with the S10175?
    The S10175 works with SpringCard, NXP SAM AV2/AV3, and Infineon SLE78 security modules. These are the same modules used by government agencies and major corporations for their most secure credentials. Your IT security team will know which ones you need based on your specific compliance requirements.
    Module selection: Government applications typically require FIPS-certified SAMs, while enterprise applications may use commercial-grade modules depending on security requirements.
    Why do I need three separate security slots instead of one?
    Having three separate slots prevents security failures and meets government compliance requirements. Instead of one key controlling everything, you can have separate keys for authentication, encryption, and digital signatures. If one fails or gets compromised, the others keep working independently.
    Security architecture: Federal agencies require compartmentalized security where different functions use separate cryptographic domains. This prevents single points of failure in critical security systems.
    What security standards does the S10175 support?
    The S10175 supports government-grade security standards including Common Criteria EAL4+ and FIPS 140-2 Level 3 architecture. This means it meets requirements for federal PIV cards, military CAC cards, TWIC transportation credentials, and other high-security applications.
    Compliance advantage: Professional installation includes security validation testing and compliance documentation that's essential for government and military applications requiring audit trails.
