HID 2050CNNBN iClass KF 2K/2 Configurable iClass Card - Black with Blue HID Logo
When you're standardizing on HID's iClass platform for access control deployments, you need credentials that balance memory capacity with field programmability. The 2050CNNBN delivers 2K-bit (256 byte) iClass technology in a standard CR80 card format with dual application areas, giving you the flexibility to encode site-specific data structures while maintaining compatibility with existing HID infrastructure.
Key Features
- 2K-bit (256 byte) memory with two independently configurable application areas for multi-credential deployments
- 13.56 MHz contactless smart card technology with read/write capability for field programming
- Standard CR80 dimensions (credit card size) with slot punch for attachment to lanyards or badge reels
- Black card body with blue HID branding for visual identification in mixed-credential environments
- Configurable format allows encoding of custom facility codes, card numbers, and application data
- Compatible with HID iClass readers and multi-technology readers supporting iClass protocols
- Mutual authentication and encrypted data transfer for secure credential presentation
- Durable PVC construction suitable for daily use in commercial and institutional settings
The configurable nature of this credential makes it particularly useful for integrators managing phased migrations or multi-site deployments where different facilities need distinct numbering schemes but share a common reader infrastructure. The dual application areas allow you to partition the card for access control on one area and a secondary application—time and attendance, cashless vending, or print management—on the other, reducing the need for multiple cards per user.
The black card stock with blue HID logo provides visual differentiation if you're running parallel credential systems during transitions or need to distinguish between user classes. Programming requires an iClass encoder (sold separately) and appropriate software to configure format, facility code, and card data before deployment. The 2K memory capacity accommodates standard access control formats with room for additional site-specific data fields.
