HID 6005 Proximity Reader, also known as the HIDprox ProxPoint Plus Reader, is a compact and cost-effective 125 kHz proximity card reader designed for reliable access control in both indoor and outdoor environments. With a sleek and unobtrusive design, it offers consistent read performance and is ideal for mullion-mount applications on metal or non-metal surfaces. The reader supports HID 125 kHz proximity cards, key fobs, and tags and delivers a read range of up to 2 inches (5 cm), depending on the credential type. It outputs Wiegand 26-bit format and is compatible with most standard access control systems. The 6005 reader includes features like potted electronics for weather resistance, bi-color LED indicators (red/green), and audible beeper for positive user feedback. It operates on a voltage range of 5–16 VDC and includes cable or terminal strip connection options. For secure identification, the system is typically paired with HID Prox Cards (e.g., HID 1326, 1386, 1346, 1336), which offer unique facility codes and card numbers for customized access. Rugged, compact, and easy to install, the HID 6005 is a trusted solution for commercial, industrial, and institutional access control requirements.
