MIFARE Classic 1K / 4K Chip Card
The MIFARE Classic chip card (1K / 4K) has been sold more than 50 billions times and is the most successful chip card across the globe. Despite the fact, that the MIFARE Classic chip is one of the older chip versions, its application is still well reputed.
MIFARE Ultralight / Ultralight C Chip Card
The MIFARE Ultralight chip cards are the smallest MIFARE chips. Ultralight chip cards are ideally suited for reasonable priced applications that require a minimum amount of data storage. Ultralight chip cards are often inexpensive and a very cost-efficient solution for many ID businesses.
MIFARE Plus Chip Card
The MIFARE Plus S chip card is the official progression of the very successful MIFARE Classic chip card. However, the MIFARE Plus S 2K and Plus S 4k offes a higher security standard due to its Crypto01 and AES encryption and comes fully packed with a 2048 byte or 4096 byte memory capacity. The MIFARE Plus X chip cards have the same features like the MIFARE Plus S cards. However, the MIFARE Plus X 2K and the MIFARE Plus X 4K also offer protection against DDoS-attacks.
MIFARE DESFire Chip Card
The MIFARE DESFire EV1 chip cards meet highest security standards due to their 3DES, DES and AES encryption and also ensure fastest data transfer up to 848 Kbit per second. The MIFARE DESFire EV1 4K chip card enables you to operate up to 28 applications including an individual data storage management. The MIFARE DESFire EV1 8K chip card has an average life span of 500.000 write cycles which is roughly an equivalent to ten years. Accordingly, this card is the most durable and biggest chip chard that is produced by NXP.
MIFARE Prox Chip Card
MIFARE Prox cards are a perfect solution for businesses and organizations, who need an unique high-level security chip card. Prox chip cards cant be encoded and only the UID can be read from particular Prox card readers. Therefore, these cards are especially secure. MIFARE Prox chip cards are therefore most commonly applied to manage access controls, high-security visitor, staff or employee managements.
