Compact 125 kHz HID proximity reader in a beige housing for reliable access control installations.
The HID 6005BBB00 ProxPoint® Plus Reader is a compact, dependable 125 kHz proximity reader designed for commercial access control applications where space, reliability, and compatibility matter. Finished in a traditional beige housing, this ProxPoint Plus reader is an excellent choice for retrofit projects, older facilities, schools, healthcare environments, and locations where a beige or almond-colored reader blends naturally with existing décor and architectural finishes.
Designed for use with HID proximity credentials, the 6005BBB00 delivers consistent read performance in a small footprint. Its pigtail connection supports professional installation, while the integrated multicolor LED and audible beeper provide clear visual and audible feedback when a card, key fob, or compatible HID proximity credential is presented.
The compact mullion-style design makes the HID ProxPoint Plus ideal for installation on door frames, narrow mullions, gate posts, and other limited mounting surfaces where larger readers may not fit. Its rugged construction and sealed electronics help support dependable operation in both indoor and outdoor environments.
Whether you are replacing an existing HID proximity reader or deploying a new Wiegand-based access control system, the HID 6005BBB00 ProxPoint Plus offers the proven reliability, compatibility, and long-term performance that have made HID readers a trusted industry standard for decades.
