The Aratek A600 is a single-finger optical scanner for identity authentication and verification systems. Aratek announced that the A600 achieved MOSIP SBI 2.0 (L1) compliance and is listed on the MOSIP Marketplace as an authentication device. It also carries FBI PIV, Mobile ID FAP 20, and STQC certifications, according to the manufacturer.
The scanner captures a fingerprint image at 500 dpi and supports a 300 × 400 pixel image size. Aratek lists USB 1.1/2.0 connectivity, 5V operation, and compatibility with Windows, Android, and Linux. Its Live Finger Detection (LFD) helps screen captured fingers for liveness, while an AES-256 encryption option is available for fingerprint data in transit. Confirm software, security options, and integration requirements with the supplier for your intended deployment.

Specifications are from Aratek’s product page, announcement, and published datasheet. The datasheet is an older document; confirm the current hardware revision and supported software stack with BME before purchase.
Feature availability depends on software, configuration, and product revision. MOSIP compliance does not by itself certify an entire customer application or deployment.
Aratek identifies these application areas for the A600:
For Bangladesh projects, suitability depends on the target identity platform, local requirements, SDK integration, and the customer’s security architecture. The product’s MOSIP compliance is relevant where the solution is built around MOSIP specifications; it does not imply automatic compatibility with every national ID or e-KYC system.
Consider the A600 when a project needs an optical single-finger scanner with FAP 20 capture and verified MOSIP SBI 2.0 (L1) compliance. Its documented capture parameters, LFD, USB connection, and optional AES-256 provide technical points for evaluating it in an authentication solution. Final suitability should be confirmed against your platform, SDK, security, procurement, and certification requirements.
Contact BME Bangladesh to confirm local stock, current pricing, product revision, included accessories, warranty, delivery, and integration support. For a project purchase, share the target operating system and identity platform so BME can help check compatibility and whether the required SDK, encryption option, or other components are included.
Is the Aratek A600 compliant with MOSIP SBI 2.0 (L1)?
Yes. Aratek announced the A600’s MOSIP SBI 2.0 (L1) compliance, and the device appears in the MOSIP Marketplace as an authentication device with compliant status.
What does MOSIP compliance mean for a buyer?
It indicates that the device is listed as compliant within the MOSIP ecosystem for authentication-device integration. It does not guarantee that every application, government system, or deployment is automatically compatible; the complete implementation must still meet its technical and program requirements.
What certifications does the A600 have?
Aratek lists FBI PIV, Mobile ID FAP 20, and STQC certifications. Verify current certificate documents and applicability for your procurement before ordering.
What is the A600’s fingerprint resolution?
Its published datasheet specifies 500 dpi and a 300 × 400 pixel fingerprint image size.
Does it have liveness detection?
Yes. Aratek lists Live Finger Detection (LFD), which screens the captured finger for liveness. Actual security depends on configuration and the wider system.
Which operating systems does it support?
The datasheet lists Windows XP, 7, 8, and 10, Android, and Linux. Confirm compatibility with your current OS version, hardware, and application before purchase.
Does it support encryption?
Aratek lists AES-256 encryption as an option for data in transit. Confirm that this option is included and supported by the application and SDK in the supplied configuration.
What is the A600’s weight?
The Aratek datasheet reviewed lists dimensions but does not state the scanner’s weight. Ask BME Bangladesh to confirm the unit and packaging weight for shipping.
What is the price and warranty in Bangladesh?
Current Bangladesh pricing, stock, and warranty terms were not verified from the manufacturer sources. Contact BME Bangladesh for the latest local offer and service details.
Current Bangladesh price, stock, warranty, delivery, included cables/accessories, exact hardware revision, current OS support, SDK licensing/access, AES-256 option availability, and device weight were not verified in the manufacturer documentation reviewed.
