HID 2100PG1AN Composite iClass 2K/2 Programmable Credential
When you need durable, high-frequency credentials that can withstand daily use in industrial or high-traffic commercial environments, composite construction delivers where PVC cards fail. The HID 2100PG1AN combines iClass 13.56 MHz technology with ruggedized composite materials, offering programmable 2K bit memory with two application areas for installations requiring logical and physical access on a single credential.
Key Features
- iClass 13.56 MHz contactless smart card technology for reliable read range and data security
- Composite construction provides superior durability compared to standard PVC credentials
- 2K bit memory configuration with two application areas for multi-function deployments
- Programmable architecture allows customization for site-specific access control requirements
- Compatible with HID iClass readers and existing infrastructure
- Suitable for harsh environments where standard credentials experience premature wear
- Standard CR80 credit card form factor for universal compatibility with card printers and holders
Composite credentials solve a specific problem: premature card failure in environments where thermal stress, frequent handling, or exposure to elements degrades standard PVC. Manufacturing facilities, warehouses, outdoor gates, and high-volume office buildings see measurable ROI from the extended credential lifecycle. The programmable memory structure supports scenarios where a single credential must carry multiple permissions—building access, workstation login, time and attendance, or parking—eliminating the need to issue and manage separate cards per function.
The iClass platform's encrypted communication between card and reader provides stronger security than proximity alternatives, important for installations with compliance requirements or elevated threat profiles. Deploying programmable credentials gives you flexibility to modify access levels and add applications post-issuance without reissuing physical cards, reducing long-term credential management costs. Standard form factor ensures compatibility with your existing card printing equipment and accessories.
