HID iCLASS Readers operate at 13.56 MHz to allow fast communication of larger amounts of data than is possible with traditional 125 KHz proximity technology in the time it takes to present a card to a reader.
iCLASS was the first 13.56 mHz contactless smart card technology designed specifically for physical access control and offers the choice of standard keys to protect the card ID data, custom keys which are managed by the system supplier, or iCLASS Elite which is controlled by the end user and managed by HID as an additional secuirty measure
iCLASS readers are available as "read-only" for simple applications or as "read/write" versions for more complex applications where card data may need to be changed when a card is presented. For example, cashless trading/vending applications will read from, and write to, the card in order to update an "electronic purse" to remove or reduce the need for cash handling on site.
For a transition strategy, HID's MultiCLASS reader models combine 13.56MHz iCLASS and HID 125KHz Prox technology within a single reader housing to enable a smooth transition of technology from prox to iCLASS.
iClass SE readers form part of HID's next generation SIO (Secure Identity Object) enabled access control platform. To learn more click HERE
