  1. What is the ISO standard for PVC Proximity Cards? PVC proximity cards, commonly referred to as Proximity ID Cards, play a crucial role in modern access control systems. These cards use embedded antenna technology to communicate with card readers through radio frequencies, enabling secure and efficient access management. Understanding the standards that govern these cards ensures they meet the requirements for security, compatibility, and performance. What Are PVC Proximity Cards? These cards are widely used in access control systems due to their durability and convenience. Made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) the proximity ID cards are embedded with a copper circuit and antenna. The antenna allows the card to communicate with a card reader using radio frequencies (RFID). When the card is within range of the reader, it transmits its stored data to grant access, typically unlocking a door or gate.

They are durable and flexible, making them suitable for everyday use and compatible with most ID card printers. Composite Cards: These cards are made from a combination of PVC and polyester. The added polyester makes them more robust, especially suitable for environments that require frequent use and printing. They are ideal for high-wear applications and provide better resistance to heat during the printing process. Clamshell Cards: Thicker than standard cards, clamshell cards consist of two layers of rigid plastic. They are more robust but less flexible, which can make them prone to breaking if bent. Due to their thickness, they cannot be printed on directly and typically require adhesive-backed cards for customization. Magnetic Stripe Prox Cards: These cards combine proximity technology with a magnetic stripe, allowing them to store additional data. This dual-encoding system is beneficial for multifunctional uses, such as access control and payment systems within the same card. Printable Prox Cards: These are designed to be compatible with standard ID card printers, allowing for easy customization with photos, logos, and other identification features. They offer a high-quality printing surface and are commonly used for creating employee badges and secure ID cards.

  3. ISO Standards for PVC Proximity Cards What is ISO? The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent, non-governmental international organization that develops and publishes standards to ensure the quality, safety, efficiency, and interoperability of products and services across industries. ISO standards are recognized globally and are essential for facilitating international trade by ensuring that products and services meet consistent criteria regardless of where they are produced. Relevant ISO Standards for PVC Proximity Cards ISO PVC proximity cards, often used for access control systems, must comply with several key ISO standards to ensure their reliability and compatibility: ISO 7810: This standard specifies the physical characteristics of identification cards, including dimensions, thickness, and durability. For instance, the ISOProx II card from HID Global is compliant with ISO 7810, with dimensions of 2.125" x 3.370" and a nominal thickness of 0.030" inches. ISO 7816: This series of standards pertains to electronic identification cards, covering aspects such as contact and contactless interfaces, electrical characteristics, and card identification. This ensures that PVC proximity cards can securely and reliably store and transmit data for identification and access control purposes.

  4. Features and Specifications of ISO PVC Proximity Cards Physical Specifications ISO PVC proximity cards have dimensions of 2.125 inches by 3.370 inches (54 mm by 86 mm) and a nominal thickness of 0.030 inches (0.76 mm), making them the same size as a standard credit card. They are typically made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or a composite material combining PVC and polyester for enhanced durability and heat resistance, especially during the printing process. Technical Specifications They operate at a frequency of 125 kHz, a common standard for RFID technology used in access control systems. These cards can support various data encoding formats, such as 26-bit, 37-bit, and 35-bit Corporate 1000, to accommodate different security needs and system requirements. The read range of these cards can vary based on the reader type, typically ranging from a few inches to about 20 cm. The cards are designed to be programmable and can be customized with external numbering, custom artwork, and company logos for added security and identification purposes. Durability and Usability ISO PVC proximity cards are engineered for durability, making them suitable for daily use in demanding environments. The materials used, such as composite PVC, offer high resistance to wear and tear, ensuring that the cards remain functional over time. These cards are also compatible with a variety of card printers, allowing organizations to print custom designs, photos, and logos directly onto the card surface. This flexibility is crucial for creating personalized and secure ID cards that meet specific organizational needs.
