How Do Proximity Card Readers Work?
Proximity card readers use electromagnetic fields to read data from a proximity card. When the proximity card is within range of the reader, the reader sends a signal that powers up the card's chip. The chip then sends back its encoded data, which the reader decodes and outputs as text or a number.
Card readers can be used to track the comings and goings of employees, visitors, or customers. They can also be used for security purposes, such as granting access to locked doors or areas. Some proximity card readers can also read other types of cards, such as magnetic stripe cards or barcodes.

Smart Card vs Proximity Card: What's the Difference?
Both smart cards and proximity cards are used for security access control purposes. However, smart cards can store additional information such as biographical information, PIN codes, and monetary values to be spent.
A smart card is a type of credit card that contains a microchip that stores personal and financial data. A proximity card uses radio waves to communicate with a reader and grant access to buildings or commercial premises.

Product SheetFAQs
What is an electronic proximity card reader?
An electronic card reader is a data-input device that reads data from a storage medium. They often have a plastic card embedded with a barcode, magnetic strip, computer chip, or other electronic storage medium.
What is the difference between RFID and proximity cards?
There are five main differences between RFID and proximity cards: RFID has increased range, more information storage, operates at a lower frequency, is read and write capable, and does not require a direct line of sight.

What is a proximity credential?
A proximity credential is a type of access control system used for facilities in which security access must be controlled. They are compatible with most proximity card readers.
Proximity cards are often used in conjunction with an access control system, which controls the doors or other entry points to a building.
Proximity cards typically have a range of around 50cm (or 15 inches), and they must be within this range to be read by the reader. The signal emitted by the card is encoded with information about the cardholder, such as their name and employee ID number. When the card is presented to the reader, this information is transmitted to the access control system, which then determines whether or not to grant access.
How to choose the right electronic card reader for your business?
Proximity card readers use RFID (radio frequency identification) technology to read cards from a distance. This makes them a convenient option for applications where users need to swipe or tap their cards to gain access.
There are a few different types of proximity card readers, each with its own pros and cons. Wiegand interface readers are the most common type, and they are generally considered to be the most reliable and affordable option.
If you are looking for a high-quality proximity card reader, then you should consider investing in products from reputable manufacturers, such as TPS Group. We design cutting-edge access control solutions that are trusted by professionals all over Australia.
Can proximity cards be duplicated?
Yes, proximity cards can be duplicated. These cards can be cloned with little effort, even from several metres away, without anyone knowing. The cloned card can then be used to access the same areas as the original card.
In order to prevent this from happening, TPS recommends keeping cards out of view when not at work, as well as the immediate reporting of lost or stolen proximity cards.
