HID 6005-111-02 ProxPoint Plus Reader Cover, Classic, Beige

It's the cover only. The 6005-111-02 is a ProxPoint Plus reader cover, a replacement housing part rather than a functioning reader. If you need a unit that actually reads credentials, you want a complete reader, not this cover.

It's a ProxPoint Plus cover, and the ProxPoint Plus family runs on base part numbers 6005 and 6008. Match the base part number stamped on the reader you're replacing the cover on before ordering.

A cover won't help a failed reader. For a Wiegand prox reader that works with 125 kHz HID credentials, the SDC IPRW Series is a cross-brand option. Keep in mind the badges your panel is already reading, since the credential technology has to match the reader, not the housing.

No, they are different classes of part. The 6005-111-02 is the outer cover for a ProxPoint Plus proximity reader, base part numbers 6005 and 6008, so it needs an existing ProxPoint Plus reader behind it to be of any use. The SDC IPRW Series is a complete Wiegand proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility, meaning it comes with its own electronics and its own housing. Ordering the IPRW when a cracked or discolored ProxPoint Plus cover is the problem leaves the installed reader untouched, and ordering the cover when the reader itself has failed leaves the door without a working credential read.

When the reader electronics are the failure and not the housing, the SDC IPRW Series is a Wiegand proximity reader that carries 125 kHz HID compatibility, so it reads the same 125 kHz proximity credentials the ProxPoint Plus reads and reports on Wiegand to the panel. The 6005-111-02 covers a ProxPoint Plus reader that runs on 5 to 16 VDC and mounts directly on metal with no change in read range, with a read range up to 3.0 inches, so if the credential fleet and the metal-frame mounting are what must be preserved, confirm the replacement reader's own power and mounting requirements against the frame before pulling the existing unit.

The ProxPoint Plus body measures 3.14 x 1.70 x 0.66 inches (7.96 cm x 4.3 cm x 1.68 cm), so it fits on a narrow aluminum mullion where a full-size wall reader won't. The cover is sized to that same body, which is why the fit is exact to the reader and not adjustable.

Yes. The ProxPoint Plus mounts directly on metal with no change in read range, and the reader is rated to read up to 3.0 inches (7.5 cm). That's why it's a common pick for hollow metal frames and aluminum storefront mullions where other prox readers lose range.

125 kHz proximity, powered at 5 to 16 VDC. If your site is running 13.56 MHz smart credentials, a ProxPoint Plus and its cover are the wrong family. It also has a beeper and a multicolor LED that can be driven by the host panel or locally.

They solve two different standardization problems. The 6005-111-02 is a Classic cover in beige for ProxPoint Plus readers, base part numbers 6005 and 6008, so it standardizes the appearance of readers already installed without touching wiring, credentials, or panel connections. The SDC IPRW Series is a complete Wiegand proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility, so specifying it means replacing the reader itself at each opening and terminating Wiegand at the panel. A property manager matching the look of readers across a corridor is doing cover work; a manager changing what is mounted on the door is doing reader work.

Yes, the ProxPoint Plus line is a commercial access control reader, and the 6005-111-02 cover is the commercial replacement housing for it. It's the small-format reader typically used at storefront entries, stairwells and tenant doors rather than a residential product.
