HID 2100PG1RN Composite iClass 2K/2 Programmable Proximity Card
When you're managing a mixed-technology access control environment or planning a phased migration from legacy 125 kHz proximity to iClass, the HID 2100PG1RN delivers both credential types in a single composite card. This dual-technology card reads on both iClass 13.56 MHz and HID Prox 125 kHz readers, eliminating the need to issue multiple credentials during system transitions or in facilities where different zones run different reader technologies.
Key Features
- Dual-frequency composite construction supports both iClass 13.56 MHz and HID Prox 125 kHz technologies
- 2K bit (256 byte) memory with 2 application areas for flexible data storage and segmentation
- Programmable memory allows custom encoding for multiple applications on a single credential
- Standard CR80 credit card dimensions with composite PVC/PET construction for durability
- Compatible with existing HID Prox readers and iClass contactless smart card readers
- ISO thickness slot-punch ready for use with standard badge clips and holders
- Supports secure identity data plus additional applications like cashless vending or print management
The 2100PG1RN's composite construction bonds the 125 kHz Prox coil with the iClass contactless smart card chip in a single credential body. This architecture lets you maintain backward compatibility with your installed 125 kHz reader base while deploying iClass readers in new construction or high-security zones. The programmable 2K memory divides into two application areas, giving you the flexibility to dedicate one segment to physical access and reserve the other for logical access, time-and-attendance, or other cardholder services.
Deploy these cards when you need simultaneous support for legacy and modern reader infrastructure without forcing end users to carry multiple credentials. The composite format maintains consistent read performance across both frequency ranges, and the standard card dimensions work with your existing badge printing equipment and accessories. This dual-technology approach protects your investment in 125 kHz readers while enabling a controlled migration path to the enhanced security and multi-application capabilities of iClass technology.
