CT - ISO Card (Mifare Classic 1K)

Tap. Read. Personalise. Ready to deploy.

The CT - ISO Card with MIFARE Classic 1K chip is the all-purpose HF card for organisations that need a proven, widely supported transponder for daily operations. Anyone looking to buy MIFARE Classic 1K cards that drop straight into an existing access control, time and attendance or POS system will find this CRAFT Technologies (CT) model the right fit – an ISO 7810 compliant PVC card in standard credit card format, available from the IDCRAFT online shop as a plain blank or fully personalised on request.

Operating at 13.56 MHz to ISO/IEC 14443 and ISO/IEC 15693, the card provides approximately 768 bytes of EEPROM user memory and a read range of up to 10 cm. That makes it compatible with virtually every HF | NFC – RFID reader, door controller, NFC-enabled smartphone and handheld terminal on the market. The NXP MIFARE Classic 1K EV1 chip has been one of the most deployed HF transponders worldwide for years – which means long-term system availability and easy replenishment for your project.

In its standard configuration the card ships as a blank, laminated PVC card sized 85.6 × 54 × 0.76 mm at a weight of 5 ± 1 g. But the card is far more than a blank substrate: printing (offset, digital, screen), laser engraving, sequential numbering, MIFARE sector encoding, barcode, QR code, signature panel, magnetic stripe or hybrid contact chip combinations can all be added to your order on request – cards arrive ready to deploy.

The following part number is available in the IDCRAFT online shop – configuration can be customised on request:
