Product Features
Technical Overview
Operating at 125 kHz, the DuoProx II card delivers reliable RF proximity communication for touchless access, paired with a magnetic stripe for swiping capabilities. This dual-functionality supports diverse reader infrastructures, from older magnetic stripe terminals to modern proximity systems, without requiring separate cards for different access points.
The card's construction uses polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polyester, providing a robust and flexible material that resists wear, bending, and environmental factors. With precise dimensions of 3.37 inches in width, 2.13 inches in length, and a thickness of 29.92 mils, it fits standard card holders, wallets, and reader slots, ensuring consistent performance and ease of handling.
