HID Proximity is a technology used in access control systems to identify and authenticate individuals or objects without requiring physical contact. It operates at a frequency of 125 kHz and uses magnetic induction to transmit and receive data.

Key features:

  • Contactless technology: No physical contact is required between the card and the reader.
  • Low frequency: Operates at 125 kHz.
  • Simple and cost-effective: Ideal for basic access control applications.
  • Durability: Cards are typically made from durable materials like PVC.

Common applications of HID Proximity:

  • Access Control: Granting or denying access to buildings, rooms, or restricted areas.
  • Time and Attendance: Tracking employee attendance.
  • Event Management: Controlling access to events or venues.
  • Asset Tracking: Monitoring the location of equipment or assets.

It is a widely used technology for basic access control needs due to its simplicity, reliability, and cost effectiveness.
