Abstract: A modular identification card reader is provided which includes a bezel sub-assembly to be secured to an enclosure such as a gaming device cabinet and a card reader and controller sub-assembly. A releasable connection is provided between the bezel sub-assembly and reader and controller sub-assembly such that, in situ, a defective reader and controller sub-assembly may be disconnected from the bezel sub-assembly and replaced by any card reader and controller sub-assembly which includes an adaptive connection to mate with the bezel sub-assembly. Therefore only the defective reader and controller sub-assembly need be replaced rather than an entire card reader assembly. Further the bezel sub-assembly and reader and controller sub-assembly may be outsourced to multiple vendors to reduce costs.
