AuthorizID Now Offers Complete Line of AWID-Compatible Access Control Credentials
AuthorizID, Northern Colorado’s trusted supplier of professional access control credentials, is proud to offer a complete lineup of AWID-compatible access cards and key fobs in the 26-bit, 34-bit, 36-bit, and 50-bit formats. These 125 kHz proximity credentials are now available to businesses, property managers, integrators, schools, healthcare facilities, HOAs, warehouses, and organizations throughout the region.
AWID proximity technology has long been a dependable choice for commercial access control, valued for its reliable read performance and broad reader compatibility. AuthorizID’s AWID-compatible credentials are designed to work with existing AWID installations, allowing facilities to maintain, replace, or expand their systems without a costly hardware overhaul.
Understanding the AWID Formats
26-bit: The most widely used AWID format, built on the standard 26-bit Wiegand structure with an 8-bit facility code. It is the most universally readable option and a common choice for straightforward deployments and replacements.
34-bit: An expanded format (also associated with the H10306 structure) that works like the 26-bit format but carries more data, supporting a larger range of card ID numbers.
36-bit: A higher-capacity format that offers additional flexibility for organizations that need more issuable numbers or specific card numbering.
50-bit: The largest of the common AWID formats, offering a significantly expanded card ID range. It is often chosen when migrating older AWID systems into modern controllers or when a very large number of unique credentials is required.
AuthorizID can supply compatible credentials programmed to the format, facility (site) code, and numbering your existing system uses.
