Paxton Net2 Proximity ISO Cards Pack of 10 - Secure ID Tokens

In this review the Paxton Net2 Proximity ISO Cards pack of 10 is judged as a straightforward, workmanlike solution for small to medium access control deployments. The biggest reason to buy is the simple, reliable pairing with Net2 systems: each CR80 card arrives encoded with a unique 8-digit numeric code so administrators can enroll tokens quickly and maintain clean access lists. The review focuses on usability for photo ID, time and attendance, and access control where compact, no-magstripe cards are needed.

Key Features

• Unique 8-digit encoding: Each card is preprogrammed with a unique numeric identifier, reducing setup time when issuing credentials to users.
• Pack of 10 CR80 size: Sold in a practical set of ten, these credit card sized tokens are ideal for staff ID, membership, and badge printing workflows.
• No magnetic stripe: The absence of a magstripe simplifies production and avoids stripe wear, focusing use on proximity reader compatibility.
• Net2 system compatibility: Designed for use with Paxton Net2 readers and software so integration is typically straightforward for sites already on that platform.
• Multi use cases: The cards work equally well as photo ID, access control, or time and attendance tokens, giving small sites a single card type to manage.

Who It's For

The Paxton Net2 proximity ISO cards are best for small offices, schools, and clubs that already run the Net2 access control platform and need a simple way to issue credential cards. They suit administrators who want consistent, credit-card sized tokens ready to program into a central PC application.

These cards are not aimed at sites that require magnetic stripe data, smart chip functionality, or large-scale printing of heavily customized full-color membership cards in very high volumes. Organizations needing multi-technology cards or integrated photo printing on a large scale should consider alternate card types.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Preencoded 8-digit numbers speed up enrollment and reduce manual entry errors when pairing tokens with readers.
• CR80 credit card size fits standard badge holders and wallet storage for staff and members.
• Packed in tens, the quantity is sensible for small teams and keeps spare tokens on hand for replacements.

Cons

• Limited to proximity functionality with no magstripe or smart chip options, so it may not fit mixed-technology environments.
