Many organizations have large installed bases of HID 125kHz proximity readers and need additional credentials without replacing their existing access control hardware. In those situations, the important consideration is not simply the shape of the credential. The replacement credential must be ordered with the correct proximity technology and programming information used by the existing system.
RapidPROX® provides credential choices comparable in form factor to several widely used HID proximity products, including the HID 1326 ProxCard II clamshell card, HID 1386 ISOProx II card and HID 1346 ProxKey III key fob. Select the corresponding RapidPROX credential and provide the required bit format, facility code and numbering information when ordering.
What Information Do I Need to Order Replacement Proximity Credentials?
To add RapidPROX credentials to an existing 125kHz proximity access control system, determine as much of the following information as possible from your existing credentials, access control records or system administrator:
Important: A credential's printed card number alone does not always identify its complete programming. When ordering credentials for an existing system, verify the bit format, facility code and card numbering requirements before production whenever possible.
HID® 125kHz Proximity Card Formats
Proximity credentials contain encoded data arranged according to a specific card format. The number of bits is only one part of that format. Two credentials having the same bit length are not necessarily programmed the same way, which is why the complete format designation matters.
26-bit H10301 is one of the most widely encountered proximity credential formats, but many access control installations use other formats. RapidPROX supports numerous common and manufacturer-specific configurations, including 26-bit, 32-bit, 33-bit, 34-bit, 35-bit, 36-bit and 37-bit formats.
Use the format links at the top of this page to narrow the available RapidPROX products by your required credential format. If you do not know your format, verify the information from your access control database, existing credential order records or system administrator before ordering encoded credentials.
What Is the 26-Bit H10301 Proximity Format?
H10301 is a commonly used 26-bit proximity credential format that incorporates facility-code and credential-number information. Because 26-bit proximity credentials are installed in many commercial access control environments, organizations frequently need additional cards or key fobs programmed to continue an existing facility code and card-number sequence. Always confirm the programming used by the existing system rather than selecting a credential based solely on its physical appearance.

RapidPROX® for HID 125kHz Frequently Asked Questions
Can RapidPROX replace an HID ProxCard II 1326?
RapidPROX offers a clamshell proximity credential designed as an alternative for compatible HID 125kHz systems using credentials such as the HID ProxCard II 1326. The new credential must be programmed with the correct format, facility code and credential numbering required by the access control system.
Is there a RapidPROX alternative to the HID 1386 ISOProx II?
Yes. The RapidPROX ISOXT proximity card provides a printable card-style option for compatible HID 125kHz installations and is offered as an alternative to credential styles including the HID 1386 ISOProx II.
Is there a RapidPROX key fob comparable to the HID 1346 ProxKey III?
RapidPROX SlimLine™ proximity key fobs provide a compact credential option for compatible HID 125kHz access systems and are available in multiple professional colors.
Can I order RapidPROX cards using my existing facility code?
In many cases, yes. When ordering, provide the required credential format, facility code and desired card-number sequence. These values should match the requirements of your existing access control system.
Does every 26-bit proximity card work with every 26-bit system?
No. Bit length alone does not establish credential compatibility. The specific data format, facility code, credential numbering and reader technology must also match the requirements of the access control installation.
What if I do not know my proximity card format?
Check previous credential order documentation, your access control database or the system administrator responsible for credential enrollment. Matching the complete programming information before ordering is the best way to avoid receiving credentials that cannot be enrolled into the existing system.
