HID 206 iCLASS Tags

Contactless smart card technology has never been more flexible. The HID iCLASS Tag 206x Series manages to include all of the convenience of HID's iCLASS contactless smart card technology into a 0.04 oz., 0.07'' thick disk transponder that is less than 1.3'' across. This tag is easily attached to any non-metallic surface.

A popular application of the 206x series is transitioning to a contactless smart card system while still using the previous outdated form of identification. Barium ferrite, magnetic stripe or Wiegand cards can instantly be transformed into iCLASS 13.56 MHz read/write contactless smart cards by adding the 206x tag.

Available in 5 memory configurations and with multiple additional options, the iCLASS Tag 206x can be customized to your requirements. The base model (2060) has 2k-bit with 2 application areas, right up to the 2064 which offers 32k-bit (16k across 16 application areas and another 16k custom area).

The tag can be in grey, black, matte or textured, and custom artwork can be added. A useful additional option is external card numbering that makes management of multiple tags easier.Despite its small size, the iCLASS Tag 206x series supports some serious security and encryption. All data is sent in an industry-standard encrypted format, with DES and Triple-DES supported. 64-bit read/write keys secure each of the application areas, keeping the data on them safe.

Perhaps the easiest way to add contactless smart card security to an existing system, the HID iCLASS Tag 206x series is an excellent choice.
