XceedID offering HID compatible prox cards

Tuesday, November 4, 2008

Golden, Colo.-based XceedID Corp. has announced a new 125 KHz proximity card series offering compatibility with HID prox technology. The cards, produced in cooperation with HID Global Corp., are comparable to HID Global’s own proximity cards and offer compatibility with HID Global’s complete line of HID proximity card readers.

XceedID’s new offering is the result of cooperation with HID Global and creates a new source for HID Global’s proximity technology that has proliferated as an industry standard over the past two decades.

The card offering will include typical ISO proximity cards, ISO cards with magnetic stripe, clamshell cards, and dual-technology cards, which employ both proximity and smart card technologies such as MIFARE, DESFire, Infineon Secure my-d and XceedID ISOX. [end]
