While HID proximity credential cards are a cost effective solution to security over keys, the cost of replacing lost or stolen cards can add up. Badge Express now offers the Uband Proximity Wearable Credential. Taking a page from the hottest trends of wearable technology and silicone band bracelets, the Uband Credential bracelet is the latest innovation in security and can save you money. Whether you’re an institution, fitness center, manufacturing facility or corporation, having a security credential that is cost effective and durable is better for your budget.
How it works
The Uband contains a chip that has a 125kHz proximity range. It is used in the same way as a proximity card – with one important difference. Users are less likely to lose the card or forget it at home. The silicone band comes in three different wrist circumferences (6, 7 or 8 inches), is available in black or blue, and can be imprinted with your logo or design. The silicone imprinting is as durable as the band, and the high quality of the screen print shows great detail.
What it replaces
The Uband Proximity Wearable Credential can replace security access badges, HID badges and check points. You can use the Uband with most existing HID access security badge systems. The existing system will read the Uband just as it currently reads the HID card. This makes updating your current access security system cost effective. The Ubands are stylish enough that they can be worn off site without appearing like a security badge. Cards can get lost and users often forget cards at home. In effect, because the Ubands are more wearable they are less likely to get lost. All of this translates into a significant amount of time saved for your company or institution.
Why the Uband is better than the security card
The Uband has several advantages over the traditional security access card. For one, it is worn on the wrist, which means it is always on hand. In applications where users are active or exposed to varying temperatures, the special silicone bracelet design resists moisture and is comfortable to wear. It’s easier for employees and members to keep their proximity access badge on their person – not in a bag, pocket or purse where it could be lost. Ubands are so low in cost that they can even be used in activities that require access – but the user identity changes – such as for water-parks and other pay per use sites.
