HID 2050PNNRN iClass Keyfob 2K/2 Programmable
When you need reliable proximity credentials for multi-application access control deployments, standard mag stripe cards and basic proximity tokens create security gaps and administrative headaches. The HID iClass keyfob delivers secure, encrypted 13.56 MHz contactless technology in a rugged form factor designed for credential programs requiring both physical durability and cryptographic security.
Key Features
- 13.56 MHz contactless smart card technology with secure, mutual authentication between credential and reader
- 2K bit (256 byte) memory provides capacity for multiple applications on a single credential
- Two programmable application areas allow segmented access for different systems or security zones
- Durable keyfob form factor withstands daily use on keychains and lanyards in demanding environments
- Compatible with HID iClass readers and multi-technology readers supporting iClass protocols
- Read range up to 3.75 inches depending on reader configuration and mounting
- Supports standard 26-bit formats and custom formats programmed at time of order or in the field
The iClass platform addresses the fundamental limitation of legacy proximity cards: lack of encryption. Every read transaction uses mutual authentication and encrypted data transfer, preventing credential cloning and replay attacks that compromise older 125 kHz systems. The programmable memory structure allows you to deploy the same credential for building access, elevator control, time and attendance, and secure print release without issuing multiple cards.
The keyfob format suits users who prefer pocket carry or need credentials that won't interfere with existing corporate badge programs. The sealed construction protects the embedded electronics from moisture, impact, and repeated flexing. For integrators migrating clients from legacy proximity systems, iClass readers support simultaneous reading of both iClass and standard prox credentials, enabling phased transitions without forklift upgrades. Program credentials with facility codes and card numbers matching your existing access control database structure for seamless enrollment.
