HID Fargo iCLASS Smart Cards

HID® iCLASS 200x iCLASS

iCLASS® smart card technology was specifically designed to make access control more powerful, more versatile, and more secure when compared with legacy 125 kHz frequency technologies. iCLASS 13.56 MHz read/write contactless smart card technology provides versatile interoperability in applications such as access control, network log-on security, cashless vending, time and attendance, event management and biometric identification.

iCLASS® smart card technology enables mutual authentication between smart card and reader, encrypted data transfer, and uses 64-bit diversified keys for read/write contactless smart card capabilities. However, these techniques alone are no longer sufficient to protect card data from modern hacking techniques.

The iCLASS® smart card meets ISO standard for card size and thickness for use with direct image and thermal transfer printers. It features a graphics quality surface optimized for Photo ID printing, and is available in standard PVC construction, or a composite polyester/PVC construction for more demanding high wear and tear environments. The smart card can be produced with visual security and anti-counterfeiting features such as holograms, ultra-violet fluorescent inks, micro-printing, or a custom logo to quickly and easily identify genuine smart cards.

Key Features:

• 13.56 MHz read/write contactless smart card technology provides high-speed, reliable communications and powerful access control.
• Meets ISO standards for thickness for use with direct image and thermal transfer printers.
• Offers the ability to add a magnetic stripe, barcode, anti-counterfeiting features, custom artwork, or photo ID.
• Available in 2k bit (256 byte), 16k bit (2K Byte) or 32k bit (4K Byte) memory configurations.
• Supports all existing HID card formats, including Corporate 1000.
• Supports field programming of any existing HID format into the HID access control application area on the card.
• Provides versatile interoperability in applications like access control, network log-on, cashless vending and many other areas.
