iCLASS

13.56 MHz contactless smart cards and readers make access control

more powerful, more versatile and offer enhanced security through data encryption and

mutual authentication between the card and reader.

iCLASS readers are user-friendly, delivering the same convenience and reliability of HID’s

world-renowned Prox technology, with state-of-the-art features, driven by evolving industry

requirements.

Upgrading from Prox to iCLASS technology has never been so simple. All iCLASS readers

provide the same wiring connections, low-current consumption and 5 to 16 volt operation

as our Prox readers. Additionally, you can transfer your Prox format and user identification

numbers to iCLASS credentials, making the change completely transparent to your access

control system.

Key Features

w Format Portability - Upgrading is completely transparent since the same Prox format and

user identification numbers are brought across to your iCLASS credentials, including HID

Corporate 1000 formats. Also, Elite custom key program is available for a higher level of

security.

w Secure - All RF data transmission between the card and reader is encrypted using a

secure algorithm. By using industry-standard encryption techniques and advanced key

management systems, iCLASS reduces the risk of compromised data or duplicated cards.

w Interoperability - iCLASS is based on ISO interoperability standards providing

compatibility with many popular card technologies (ISO 15693, ISO 14443A and ISO

14443B).

w Optimal Read Range Performance - An auto-tuning feature automatically adjusts the

reader for optimal read range performance on any mounting surface.

13.56 MHz Contactless Smart Card Readers

Plug-n-play with new and existing access control systems

w Simple Upgrades - iCLASS readers have the same wiring

connections, same low-current consumption and same

5 to 12 volt operation as our Prox readers.

w Multiple Applications - HID Connect offers over 70

technology partners which have embedded iCLASS

technology into their products providing a single card

solution for all your application requirements.

w GSA approved - Included in the U.S. General Services

Administration (GSA) FIPS 201 Approved Products List.

Features Security 64-bit authentication keys are extremely secure. Readers and cards require matching keys to function. All RF data transmission between the card and reader is encrypted using a secure algorithm. The key management system reduces the risk of compromised data or duplicated cards. Elite Custom Keys Custom keys provide the highest level of security, where cards and readers are uniquely matched to individual sites or customers, and are non-interchangeable.
