Identity
verification.
Simplified.
The GC2500e is an embedded, network-connected identity capture appliance. It scans both sides of an ID card at once, with no need to flip it, reads passports and chips, and needs no dedicated Windows PC at the scan station.

What Makes the GC2500e Stand Out
-

Simultaneous duplex scan, no flip needed
Front and back of an ID card, captured at the same time. A passport's data page is captured on its own.
-

Light-Passthrough Testing
Light transmitted through the card detects and validates micro laser perforation.
with the corresponding APX-Verify licence -

Multi-light security validation
Hidden text and security fields are read under UV and IR light.
with the corresponding APX-Verify licence -

Document template detection
Unknown or new ID formats are identified from their layout and field patterns.

Network appliance or workstation scanner
The GC2500e and GC2500u use the same advanced imaging approach for ID cards and passports. The important difference is where the computing happens, which changes how each device fits into your environment.
Choose the GC2500e when you want a self-contained, network-connected appliance. It has embedded processing, browser-based configuration and remote scan initiation, so a dedicated Windows PC is not required at every counter, kiosk or branch.
Choose the GC2500u when a Windows workstation or kiosk computer is already part of the deployment. It connects to that host over USB and gives your application direct access to premium document capture.
Compare the two models

The IDSnap range
IDSnap GC2500e
The GC2500e is an embedded, network-connected identity capture appliance. It is configured from a browser, discovered on the LAN, triggered from your own software, and it does not need a dedicated Windows PC at every scan station.
Input An ID-1 card or a passport book, presented to the scanner by a person at a counter, a kiosk or a branch desk.
Output For an ID card: duplex images of front and back, captured simultaneously with no need to flip it, under visible, UV, IR and light-passthrough illumination. For a passport: the photo data page, plus any RFID or chip data. The blank back cover is not captured. Delivered to the APX-Verify cloud service or to the customer's own backend.IDSnap GC2500u
The GC2500u shares its imaging engine with the GC2500e: simultaneous duplex card capture with no need to flip it, light-passthrough, multi-light security validation, template detection and chip reading. The difference is deployment: it connects via USB to a PC, or over the network, rather than running as the GC2500e's standalone embedded appliance.
Input An ID-1 card or a passport book, presented to the scanner at a workstation or a network-connected scan station.
Output For an ID card: duplex images of front and back, captured simultaneously with no need to flip it, under visible, UV, IR and light-passthrough illumination. For a passport: the photo data page only. Delivered over USB or the network.IDSnap 960CDX
An ID-1 card scanner only: it is not a passport scanner.
Input An ID-1 card, optionally with a magnetic stripe.
Output Duplex images under visible, UV and IR illumination, plus magnetic-stripe data.IDSnap 850DX
Front and back of an ID card, in one pass.
Input An ID-1 card.
Output Images of both sides, captured in one pass under visible light.IDSnap 2000
A camera-based simplex scanner, powered over USB: the entry point of the range.
Input A driving licence or ID card presented to the scanner.
Output A captured image of the document, one side at a time.
