Mifare 1K Cards (Standard RFID Cards)

The Mifare 1K (Standard RFID Card) is one of the most widely used contactless smart cards in the world. Operating at the 13.56MHz frequency and based on the ISO 14443A standard, it offers a significant security upgrade over basic 125kHz proximity cards. The “1K” designation refers to its 1024 bytes of internal memory, which is divided into 16 secure sectors. This architecture allows a single card to be used for multiple independent applications—such as entering a building, paying for lunch, and logging into a secure computer—all with one tap.Key Features1KB Encrypted Memory: Features 16 separate sectors protected by unique keys, making it highly resistant to unauthorized duplication or cloning.Professional Printable Surface: The ultra-white, glossy PVC finish is optimized for high-resolution printing, ensuring sharp text and vibrant employee photos when used with thermal ID printers.Multi-Application Capability: The segmented memory allows different service providers to store data on the same card without interfering with one another.Standard CR80 Format: Features the standard credit card size (85.6mm x 54mm) with a slim 0.8mm profile, fitting comfortably in all wallets and badge holders.High-Speed Data Exchange: Designed for fast-paced environments, the card communicates with readers in less than 100 milliseconds for a seamless user experience.Technical SpecificationsFeatureSpecificationFrequency13.56 MHzChip TypeMifare Classic S50 (1K)Memory1024 Bytes (Divided into 16 Sectors)ProtocolISO / IEC 14443AMaterialHigh-Quality PVCDimensions85.6mm x 54.0mm x 0.8mmReading Distance2cm – 10cm (Depending on reader)Write Endurance100,000 cyclesUnboxing: What’s in the Box?Mifare 1K Standard RFID Cards (Available in packs of 50, 100, or 200)Note: Cards are shipped in dust-free, anti-static packaging to protect the surface for professional printing.The BenefitsTiered Security: Protect sensitive areas with a card that uses encrypted handshakes, ensuring that only authorized credentials can communicate with your readers.Cost-Effective Versatility: One card replaces the need for separate fobs or tags for different systems, saving the organization money on hardware and administrative time.Future-Proof Infrastructure: As your organization grows, the 1K chip’s memory can be programmed for new services without needing to replace the existing card stock.Who Uses It?Mifare 1K Cards are the preferred choice for:Corporate Enterprises: For combined secure office access and employee identification badges.Universities and Schools: Managing student IDs, library loans, and on-campus cashless payments.Hospitality and Resorts: Providing guests with non-duplicable room keys that also work for gym and pool access.Transit and Parking: For pre-paid parking access and public transportation ticketing systems.
