HID® H10301 26-Bit Proximity Cards & Credentials
Genuine HID® proximity cards, key fobs, and access credentials using the industry-standard H10301 26-bit Wiegand format.
Genuine HID® H10301 credentials use the widely deployed 26-bit Wiegand format for access control identification. H10301 is one of the most commonly used credential formats in the access control industry and is available across a variety of HID proximity cards, printable cards, key fobs, and other compatible credential form factors.
If your existing access control system uses the HID H10301 format, these credentials can be configured with the appropriate facility code and card number to replace existing credentials, add new cardholders, or expand an established credential population.
What Is the HID H10301 26-Bit Format?
H10301 is HID's standard 26-bit credential format. It organizes the credential data into a defined structure containing a facility code and an individual card number, allowing an access control system to identify both the credential group and the individual credential presented to the reader.
The H10301 format supports:
- Facility codes from 0–255
- Card numbers from 0–65,535
- A standardized 26-bit Wiegand data structure
- Compatibility with many access control systems designed to accept standard 26-bit credentials
HID H10301 Proximity Cards, Key Fobs & Credentials
The H10301 format is available across multiple HID credential styles, allowing you to maintain the same 26-bit format while selecting the physical credential that works best for your application.
Available credential types may include:
- HID clamshell proximity cards for durable everyday access
- Printable ISO proximity cards for badge and ID card printing applications
- HID proximity key fobs for compact, key-ring access
- Other compatible HID 125kHz credential form factors
This makes H10301 credentials well suited for commercial buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, industrial environments, multifamily properties, government facilities, and other organizations using established 26-bit access control systems.
Ordering HID H10301 Credentials
Knowing that your system uses 26-bit H10301 is only part of the information needed to order replacement or additional credentials. Your new proximity cards or key fobs must also use the correct facility code and card number range.
When ordering, you will typically need:
- Credential format: H10301 / 26-bit
- Your existing facility code
- The desired starting card number
- The HID credential or form factor required
Correctly matching this information allows new credentials to integrate into your existing access control system without changing the credential format already in use.
Adding or Replacing HID 26-Bit Proximity Cards
Organizations frequently need additional 26-bit proximity cards when employees are added, credentials are lost or damaged, facilities expand, or existing card inventories run low. If your system already uses H10301, you generally do not need to replace your existing credential population simply because additional cards are required.
New HID H10301 proximity credentials can be ordered using the appropriate facility code and an available card number sequence, allowing you to continue building upon your existing deployment.
