RFID Card / Contactless Card

RFID cards, an acronym for Radio Frequency Identification, are contactless smart cards embedded with an RFID chip and antenna. From the exterior, it is indistinguishable from a standard PVC card, yet it harbors advanced technology within.

Our collection includes passive RFID cards designed for a multitude of applications, including payments, access control, identification, and transportation. The functionality of an RFID card is realized through its interaction with an RFID reader and a corresponding system. As the reader communicates with the card, it sends signals that power the RFID chip, enabling it to synchronize, receive energy, alter and store data, and complete read/write operations.

Understanding the nuances of RFID technology is crucial:

- LF (Low Frequency) cards operate at 125 KHz or 134.2 KHz with a short read range of 1-5 cm and are typically used in access control and animal identification.

- HF (High Frequency) cards function at 13.56 MHz with a read range of 2-10 cm, suitable for high-security applications like financial transactions and ID verification.

- UHF (Ultra High Frequency) cards range from 840-960 MHz and can have a read range of up to 15 meters, perfect for long-range applications such as logistics and warehouse management.

Each frequency band corresponds with specific RFID readers, and our NFC (Near Field Communication) cards operate similarly at 13.56 MHz but utilize the ISO 18092 protocol, distinct in its NDEF format.

Our RFID cards come in various dimensions and structures, with optional overlays for personalized printing. The unique ID number of each RFID chip allows for secure access control, with the potential for encoding additional data for enhanced security.

NFC technology simplifies data sharing, such as contact information or URLs, through a simple tap with an NFC-enabled smartphone. For those seeking versatility, Shenzhen Thinked also offers hybrid RFID cards, combining multiple frequencies and even magnetic stripes to suit diverse needs.
