HID 5455-311-01 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the HID 5455-311-01 a complete ProxPro II reader or just the cover?
It's the cover only, in charcoal gray. The electronics, antenna and wiring are not part of it, so it's what you order when a ProxPro II is working fine but the housing is cracked, faded or tagged. If the reader itself has failed, you need a replacement reader, not this part.
2) Which HID ProxPro II readers does the 5455-311-01 cover fit?
It's the ProxPro II cover, and the ProxPro II family runs under base part numbers 5455 and 5458. Check the label on the back of the installed reader for one of those base numbers before ordering, since HID uses the base number plus a configuration suffix on every unit.
3) Can an SDC IPRW reader be used in place of the HID 5455-311-01 charcoal gray cover?
No. The 5455-311-01 is a charcoal gray ProxPro II reader cover that needs no bezel, so it replaces the outer housing on an existing ProxPro II proximity reader and contains no electronics. The SDC IPRW Series is a Wiegand proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility, meaning it is a complete reader head, not a cover. If the ProxPro II is functioning and only the cover is cracked, faded, or missing, the cover is the part that restores it; the IPRW would mean pulling the ProxPro II out and rewiring a different reader at the door.
4) If a ProxPro II reader itself has failed rather than just the housing, what 125 kHz reader can go on the door instead?
The SDC IPRW Series is a Wiegand proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility, so it reads on the same 125 kHz frequency the ProxPro II uses and outputs Wiegand to the panel. That makes it the path when the reader electronics are the problem and the whole head is coming off the frame. The 5455-311-01 charcoal gray cover only addresses the ProxPro II housing, so it does nothing for a reader that has stopped reading. For a locksmith or integrator, the deciding question is whether the existing 125 kHz credential population stays in service; both paths keep the card fleet on 125 kHz.
5) Do I need to buy a bezel or trim ring with this HID ProxPro II cover?
No. The 5455-311-01 cover is the no-bezel version, so nothing additional is required to close up the reader. Mounting screws and the existing back plate stay as they are; you're only swapping the outer housing.
6) Will replacing a ProxPro II cover change the card read range or credential compatibility?
No. The ProxPro II is a 125 kHz proximity reader with a read range up to 8 inches (20.5 cm), and that comes from the reader electronics, not the housing. Swapping the cover leaves the read range and the credentials it accepts exactly as they were.
7) My ProxPro II reader itself is dead, not just the housing. What replaces it?
A cover won't help there. For a 125 kHz proximity replacement, the SDC IPRW Series is a Wiegand proximity reader built for 125 kHz HID compatibility, so it reads the same credential population your ProxPro II was reading and outputs Wiegand to the same panel input. Mounting footprint and wiring terminations differ between brands, so plan on re-terminating at the reader end.
8) How much wall space does an HID ProxPro II take up, and will a charcoal gray cover match my other readers?
The ProxPro II measures 5.0 x 5.0 x 1.0 inches (12.7 cm x 12.7 cm x 2.54 cm), so a cover swap doesn't change the footprint or the existing mounting holes. Charcoal gray is the standard ProxPro II housing color, which is what makes this the part to order when you're standardizing the look across a building rather than replacing working readers.
9) Can a ProxPro II be mounted behind glass at a storefront entry?
Yes, with the optional glass mount kit HID offers for mounting the reader behind glass. That's a separate kit, not part of the 5455-311-01 cover, so order it alongside if the reader is going on the interior face of a glass lite.
10) What voltage does the HID ProxPro II run on?
5 to 16 VDC, which is why it drops onto most access control panel reader ports without a separate supply. Nothing about a cover replacement affects that; the power terminations stay untouched.
