CDVI CS25H – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will CDVI CS25H clamshell cards work with my existing HID 125 kHz proximity readers?
Yes. The CS25H clamshell card is a 125 kHz proximity card with HID compatible encoding, so it reads on 125 kHz prox readers expecting HID format. The CDVI cards that will not work on those readers are the CSM (MiFare Classic 1K) and CSMD (MiFare EV1 Desfire 4K), both of which run at 13.56 MHz.
2) Should I use 125 kHz prox cards or move to MiFare for a new access control install?
125 kHz prox, like the CS25H, is the right pick when you are adding cards to an existing HID-compatible 125 kHz reader base and want to keep one credential across the building. For a new system where you want the newer smart card technology, CDVI's MiFare options are the alternative: CSM is MiFare Classic 1K and CSMD is MiFare EV1 Desfire 4K, both 13.56 MHz. The two frequencies are not interchangeable at the reader, so pick based on the readers you have or are specifying.
3) If I need a new access control system and not just credentials, what CDVI option includes cards with the hardware?
The CDVCS25H is credentials only - a 25-pack of 125 kHz clamshell proximity cards with HID encoding, sized 85 mm x 54 mm x 1.8 mm. If the opening has no controller or reader yet, the CDVI Americas A22KITSTB Atrium 2-door kit is a controller-with-reader package that ships with an A22 controller, 2 STARPB readers and 15 credentials, so it covers the electronics and a starting set of cards in one order.
4) How many cards come in the CDVI CDVCS25H pack?
25 cards per pack. Each card carries a sequential decimal number printed on it, so you can log which card went to which tenant or employee as you hand them out, which is what most property managers use for enrollment records.
5) What size are the CDVI clamshell prox cards, and will they fit a badge clip or slot punch?
The card measures 85 mm x 54 mm x 1.8 mm. That is standard credit card footprint but thicker than a printable ISO card, which is why clamshells are normally worn on a strap clip or slot punched at the edge rather than run through a card printer. If you need to print names or logos directly on the face, use the ISO printable card style instead.
6) I need a reader and controller as well as cards. What do I order with these?
The CS25H pack is credentials only. For a small opening count, the CDVI Americas A22KITSTB Atrium 2-door kit bundles an A22 controller, two STARPB readers and 15 credentials. If you are running a single door on an RS-485 connection, the Schlage Electronics CTE ENGAGE single door controller with a mobile-enabled multi-technology reader is the other route we carry.
7) Will CDVCS25H clamshell cards work on a Schlage ENGAGE CTE multi-technology reader?
The CDVCS25H is a 125 kHz proximity card with HID-compatible encoding. The Schlage Electronics CTE-MTB11-485-B is a single-door controller with a mobile-enabled multi-technology reader on a direct RS-485 connection; multi-technology readers are built to read more than one credential format, so confirm the specific card formats enabled on the reader before standardizing a facility on these clamshells. If you are running CDVI readers, the HID-encoded 125 kHz card is the matching credential.
8) I want to move to mobile credentials instead of handing out cards - what do I look at?
The CDVCS25H covers physical cards only: 125 kHz clamshell proximity cards in packs of 25, each printed with a sequential decimal number for tracking. For a mobile-credential approach at a single door, the Schlage Electronics CTE-MTB11-485-B is a single-door controller with a mobile-enabled multi-technology reader wired over direct RS-485, which reads phone-based credentials as well as cards.
9) Is there a higher-security CDVI card format than the CS25H 125 kHz clamshell?
Yes, within the same CDVI clamshell card family. The CSH version is HID compatible at 125 kHz, the CSM is MiFare Classic 1K at 13.56 MHz, and the CSMD is MiFare EV1 DESFire 4K at 13.56 MHz. All share the 85 mm x 54 mm x 1.8 mm card body and the sequential printed number, so match the format to what the installed reader supports.
10) Can I get CDVI proximity cards printed with our company logo?
Yes, CDVI cards and badges can be customized with your own logo. That is handled as a custom order rather than a stock item, so the standard CS25H clamshell 25 pack ships plain with just the sequential number on the face.
11) Is this a commercial-grade credential or a residential product?
The CS25H is a commercial access control credential, sold in 25 packs for building and facility use. It is a card only, so it does not do anything on its own; you need a 125 kHz reader and a controller to enroll and read it.
12) Do CDVI clamshell cards come in other formats if a clamshell is too bulky?
Yes. Alongside the clamshell, CDVI offers mini PVC sticky tags and ISO printable cards. Sticky tags suit contractors or visitors who need a credential on a phone or fob rather than a badge, and the ISO card is the one to order if you want a printed photo ID that doubles as the access credential.
13) Does buying the CDVCS25H card pack give me anything that controls the door?
No. The CDVCS25H is a 25-pack of proximity credentials for commercial electronic access control - the cards a user presents, not the device that unlocks the door. Door control comes from a controller-with-reader product such as the CDVI Americas A22KITSTB Atrium 2-door kit or the Schlage Electronics CTE single-door controller with multi-technology reader.
