Buying guide

Choosing UHF RFID cards for access and vehicle identification

A UHF RFID card is a standard CR80 PVC card (85.6 × 54 mm) with an EPC Gen2 / ISO 18000-6C inlay inside. Most office access cards run at 125 kHz or 13.56 MHz and must be held against the reader. UHF cards are read at a distance in India's 865–868 MHz band, so drivers and staff pass a gate or turnstile without stopping to tap.

Read distance depends mainly on the reader, its antenna and how the card is carried. A card in a wallet or pocket, close to the body, reads at a shorter distance than one held up to the reader or kept on the dashboard.

UHF cards in this category

Plain, for in-house printing

The Plain UHF RFID Card IDTS-IDC3D is blank white PVC, 0.76 mm thick, made to run through Zebra, Evolis, HID and Fargo PVC card printers. Choose an Alien H3, NXP UCODE 8 or UCODE 9 chip when ordering.

Printed to your artwork

Printed UHF Cards come with your logo, photo, name, sequential numbers, QR code or barcode on one or both sides, with gloss or matte lamination and options such as a magnetic stripe or hologram.

0.9 mm card for gates and lanes

The UHF Card IDTS-IDC62 is 0.9 mm white PVC with 96-bit encodable EPC memory, meant for vehicle lanes, car parks and high-speed turnstiles. It is also available printed and bulk encoded.

How to choose

QuestionWhat it means for your order
Do you have a PVC card printer?Order the plain IDC3D and print in-house. If not, order Printed UHF Cards and send your design.
Is the card for a person or a vehicle?For people at turnstiles and staff gates, a card works well. For a permanent vehicle pass, a tamper-proof windshield label that stays on the glass is often the better fit.
Do your doors already use MIFARE or 125 kHz cards?A UHF-only card will not open those doors. A dual-frequency card carries both chips in one badge.
What numbering does your software expect?Share your EPC format or serial series so cards can be encoded and printed to match.

Readers to pair with UHF cards

UHF cards work with EPC Gen2 readers set to 865–868 MHz. Match the reader to the read point:

  • Doors, turnstiles and attendance points: the UHF RFID Card Reader ID-UCR-RD901M reads within 0–1 m and outputs Wiegand 26/34 or RS485 to an access control panel.
  • Vehicle gates and car parks: a long-range integrated reader at the barrier, such as the IF-12 or the BIS and WPC approved IF9A.
  • Issuing cards at a desk: a USB desktop reader such as the UDR-111 reads each card number into your software in keyboard mode. See all UHF desktop readers.

If your site already runs on MIFARE or 125 kHz cards, look at the dual-frequency RFID cards. For a side-by-side comparison of card technologies, read RFID cards explained: UHF vs HF vs LF vs MIFARE.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a UHF card and a normal RFID access card?
Most office access cards are 125 kHz (EM) or 13.56 MHz (MIFARE) and are read only when held close to the reader. UHF cards use EPC Gen2 at 865–868 MHz and can be read from a distance, which suits gates, car parks and turnstiles. A UHF card does not work on a 125 kHz or 13.56 MHz reader, and those cards do not work on a UHF reader.
How far can a UHF RFID card be read?
It depends on the reader, its antenna and how the card is presented. The product pages list 0.5–1.5 m for the plain IDC3D and 1–5 m for the IDC62, both reader and antenna dependent. A card carried in a pocket or held against the body reads at a shorter distance than one held up to the reader.
Can I print UHF cards on my own ID card printer?
Yes. The plain IDTS-IDC3D has a blank white PVC surface for standard card printers such as Zebra, Evolis, HID and Fargo. If you do not have a printer, order Printed UHF Cards and send your artwork.
Can the cards be encoded with our own numbers?
Yes. The plain IDC3D and the IDC62 carry a 96-bit EPC that can be supplied blank or encoded to your series. Printed UHF Cards can also carry a matching sequential number printed on the face. Share your numbering format when you request a quote.
Should I use a UHF card or a windshield label for vehicle parking?
A card suits drivers who also use it at pedestrian gates, but it has to be held up at the windscreen. For a permanent, hands-free vehicle pass, many sites use a tamper-proof UHF windshield label fixed inside the glass, which cannot be moved to another vehicle intact.
