HID 5365EGP00 MiniProx proximity reader, Wiegand output, Charcoal Gray, 18 In. Pigtail

The MiniProx runs on 5 to 16 VDC, so it will take power straight off most panel reader ports, whether that port is putting out 5V, 12V, or anything in between. No separate supply or regulator is needed as long as the panel holds within that window.

That is what the MiniProx is built for. It is a mullion mount reader measuring 6.0 x 1.7 x 1.0 inches (15.2 cm x 4.3 cm x 1.91 cm), so the 1.7 inch narrow face sits on a storefront mullion or a narrow stile where a full switch-plate size reader will not land. Confirm your mullion face is at least that wide before drilling.

It has a Wiegand output, which is the interface nearly every commercial access panel accepts on its reader inputs. Wire it to the panel's Wiegand data lines and power, and the panel handles the credential decision. It is a 125 kHz proximity reader, so the cards or fobs you present have to be 125 kHz prox credentials.

The SDC IPRW Series Wiegand proximity reader is the cross-brand counterpart. It reads 125 kHz HID-compatible credentials and sends Wiegand output, which is the same credential frequency and the same output protocol the MiniProx 5365EGP00 uses, so an existing 125 kHz card population and a Wiegand input at the panel carry over. The MiniProx itself is a 125 kHz mullion mount reader with Wiegand output, powered from 5-16 VDC.

Up to 5.5 inches (14.0 cm). That is a present-the-card range, not a hands-free range, so plan the mounting height for someone holding a card or fob to the face of the reader rather than walking past it. If you need drive-up or long range reading, a MiniProx is the wrong device for that opening.

The reader terminates in an 18 inch pigtail, a short flying lead off the back rather than a screw terminal block. You splice that lead to your reader cable inside the mullion or a nearby junction, so budget for the splice and enough slack. On a mullion run, 18 inches usually gets you from the reader hole to the frame opening and no further.

Card only. The MiniProx is a proximity card reader with no keypad, so it reads a 125 kHz credential and nothing else. If your facility needs a PIN, or card plus PIN, you need a keypad reader instead of this one.

The MiniProx 5365EGP00 is built for that opening: it is a mullion mount reader measuring 6.0 in. x 1.7 in. x 1.0 in. (15.2 cm x 4.3 cm x 1.91 cm), narrow enough for an aluminum frame stile, and it reads 125 kHz credentials at up to 5.5 in. (14.0 cm). The SDC IPRW Series is the alternate 125 kHz Wiegand reader to consider for the same credentials.

No. The SDC IPRW Series is specified as a Wiegand proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility, and the MiniProx 5365EGP00 is a 125 kHz proximity reader with Wiegand output, so both read the same credential technology and both talk to the panel over Wiegand. A facility standardized on 125 kHz cards keeps its card stock either way. Confirm the head-end panel port and the reader's power feed - the MiniProx runs on 5-16 VDC - before committing a fleet swap.

Charcoal Gray is the only finish on the 5365EGP00. It is the standard dark gray HID prox housing, which is what most existing MiniProx installs on aluminum storefront already use, so replacing one reader in a run will match the rest.

Commercial. This is a panel-connected access control reader for a managed system, not a standalone residential lock. It needs a head-end access control panel to make the unlock decision; on its own it does nothing.

Only if the site wants PIN entry. The MiniProx 5365EGP00 is a credential reader - a card-present device reading 125 kHz proximity credentials with Wiegand output - not a keypad. A keypad unit changes what the user does at the door and what the panel receives. If the goal is a like-for-like card reader, the SDC IPRW Series is the comparable 125 kHz HID-compatible Wiegand proximity reader.
