HID 6005BGB00 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What voltage does the HID ProxPoint Plus 6005 reader need?
The ProxPoint Plus runs on 5 to 16 VDC, so it drops onto most access control panel reader ports without a separate supply. That wide input range is why it works off panel-provided power on the same run as the Wiegand data leads.
2) Can the ProxPoint Plus be mounted directly on a metal door or frame?
Yes, and without losing range. The reader mounts directly to metal with no change in read range performance, which is the main reason it gets specified on hollow metal frames and aluminum storefront stiles where other prox readers need a spacer.
3) Will the HID 6005 ProxPoint Plus fit on a narrow aluminum storefront stile?
It measures 3.14 x 1.70 x 0.66 inches (7.96 cm x 4.3 cm x 1.68 cm), so the narrow face fits a typical storefront stile with room around it. Check the 1.70 inch dimension against your stile width before drilling.
4) Will an HID ProxPoint Plus work with my existing access control panel?
The 6005 outputs Wiegand, the standard reader protocol nearly every commercial access panel accepts. If your panel takes Wiegand reader inputs and can supply 5 to 16 VDC on the reader port, this wires straight in.
5) What reader can replace a ProxPoint Plus 6005BGB00 on a Wiegand panel input without rewiring the controller?
The SDC IPRW Series proximity reader is built for the same interface: it is a Wiegand output proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility, which is the same credential frequency and the same output the 6005BGB00 sends back to the panel. The 6005BGB00 itself is a 125 kHz proximity reader with Wiegand output running on 5-16 VDC. A locksmith or integrator swapping one for the other is landing the same Wiegand data pair on the same controller input and reading the same 125 kHz cards, so the panel configuration and the credential stock both carry over. Confirm the replacement reader's supply voltage suits whatever the existing reader was powered from at the door.
6) Will an SDC IPRW reader read the same proximity cards as an HID ProxPoint Plus 6005BGB00?
Yes. The SDC IPRW Series reader is specified as a Wiegand proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility, and the ProxPoint Plus 6005BGB00 is a 125 kHz proximity card reader. For a property manager or facility buyer standardizing a site, that means one card population can be presented at doors fitted with either reader rather than issuing a second credential per door. Card format still has to match what the access control panel is programmed to accept, so verify the format on the existing badges before mixing reader brands on one system.
7) How far will the ProxPoint Plus read a 125 kHz prox card?
Up to 3 inches (7.5 cm) with a 125 kHz credential. That is a present-the-card range, not a hands-free range, so mount it where a user can touch the card to the face: at a door edge beside the lever, not across a mullion or behind glass.
8) Does the ProxPoint Plus reader come with a terminal block or flying leads?
It ships with an 18 inch pigtail, so you land the leads in the door frame or a junction box rather than at a terminal strip on the reader itself. Plan for a box or enough backbox depth within 18 inches of the mounting location.
9) Does the ProxPoint Plus give the user any feedback at the door?
There's a beeper and a multicolor LED, and both can be driven by the host panel or locally by the reader. Host control is what lets you signal different states at the door, an accepted read versus a denied one, from the panel side rather than relying on the reader's own default behavior.
10) What is an alternative to the HID ProxPoint Plus for a 125 kHz prox system?
The SDC IPRW Series is a Wiegand proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility, so it reads the same credentials your users already carry and reports over the same Wiegand protocol. It's the option to look at when you want a different housing or form factor but need to keep the existing card stock in service.
11) Does the ProxPoint Plus have a keypad for PIN entry?
No. The 6005 is a card-read-only proximity reader, credential presentation only. For a door that needs card-plus-PIN or a code fallback, you need a reader with an integrated keypad instead.
12) What does an HID ProxPoint Plus 6005BGB00 give me that an SDC IPRW reader is not described as providing?
The ProxPoint Plus 6005BGB00 carries a beeper and a multicolor LED that can be host controlled, locally controlled, or both, so the panel can drive the visual and audible feedback a user gets at the door. It also mounts directly on metal with no change in read range performance, which matters on a hollow metal frame or an aluminum storefront mullion, and it reads up to 3.0 inches in a 3.14 by 1.70 by 0.66 inch body. The SDC IPRW Series is specified as a Wiegand proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility. Both cover the same interface and credential frequency; if host-driven LED and beeper feedback or a confirmed on-metal mount is part of the door spec, work from the reader whose data states it.
13) What color does the ProxPoint Plus 6005BGB00 come in?
Charcoal gray only for the 6005BGB00. If you're standardizing readers across a building and need the finish to match at every opening, order the same part number throughout rather than mixing in a different model.
14) I need a proximity reader for a door where the wire run is already terminated in the box - is the 6005BGB00 or the SDC IPRW the right call?
The 6005BGB00 ships with an 18 inch pigtail, so the reader arrives with a short lead that gets spliced to the home run inside the box rather than terminated at the reader. That is the detail a contractor should size the box and the wire slack against. The SDC IPRW Series is a Wiegand proximity reader with 125 kHz HID compatibility, so it lands on the same panel input either way. Choose based on how much room is behind the reader location for a splice and how the existing cable is dressed.
