HID 2001HPG1NN iCLASS 16K/2 SR Programmable Card with Magnetic Stripe
When your access control deployment requires dual credential technology with magnetic stripe compatibility, HID's iCLASS 16K/2 programmable card delivers the flexibility to bridge legacy mag stripe systems while implementing secure 13.56 MHz contactless technology. This card addresses the common integration challenge of migrating from magnetic stripe to smart card infrastructure without requiring complete system replacement or forcing users to carry multiple credentials during transition periods.
Key Features
- 16K bit (2K byte) memory configuration supports multiple applications on a single credential
- Standard read (SR) range optimized for typical door reader installations at 2-4 inches
- Integrated high-coercivity magnetic stripe enables backward compatibility with existing mag stripe readers
- Glossy finish on both front and back surfaces provides professional appearance and durability
- Programmable format allows customization for specific access control system requirements
- 13.56 MHz contactless smart card technology operates on secure mutual authentication protocols
- ISO-compliant CR80 form factor (credit card size) fits standard badge holders and lanyards
- No printed numbering or slot punch allows flexibility in facility badging workflows
The dual-technology design makes this card particularly valuable in phased migration projects where you're transitioning from magnetic stripe to contactless readers across multiple buildings or zones. Deploy new iCLASS readers in high-security areas while maintaining mag stripe functionality for secondary access points, all using the same credential. The 16K memory allocation provides sufficient capacity for storing multiple facility codes, building access zones, and ancillary applications like cashless vending or print release without requiring additional cards.
The unpunched, unnumbered configuration gives you complete control over your card personalization workflow. Whether you're printing cards in-house or working with a badge vendor, you can implement your own numbering scheme and positioning without working around pre-existing holes or printed series. The glossy finish on both sides accepts dye-sublimation and thermal transfer printing while providing resistance to normal wear from daily handling and badge holder friction.
