About this card
The HID iCLASS 2000 is a 13.56 MHz contactless smart card carrying 2k bits (256 bytes) of memory divided into two application areas. It is a standard PVC card with a smooth print surface, so one card is both a door credential and a photo ID badge. Every card is programmed to order to match your readers.
iCLASS differs from proximity in one important way: it is keyed as well as formatted. The recommended configuration programs the card with a Secure Identity Object (SIO) and the standard iCLASS access control application, which works with standard-keyed iCLASS and iCLASS SE readers. You can also order the standard iCLASS application on its own, or take the card unprogrammed and encode it in house with an iCLASS SE encoder.
To order programmed cards, give us three things: your card format, your facility or site code, and the starting card number. They are printed on the box your current cards came in, or on your original HID paperwork. We encode every card in the run in sequence from your start number. Not sure what you have? Send two or three of your existing cards and we will read them and match the encoding. Printing on a laminating or retransfer (high definition) printer that runs hot? Choose the composite version, iCLASS 2100, which resists warping.
