Blank Programmable Cards

EM4305 writable card

125 kHz LF C-tier format

A factory-fresh, rewritable EM4305 / EM4469 — the programmable blank our compatible 125 kHz proximity credentials are encoded onto, supplied loose or pre-encoded in bulk. Order single spares or bulk quantities at a fraction of OEM list pricing.

How the compatible EM4305 / EM4469 works

The EM4305 / EM4469 is a 125 kHz low-frequency proximity credential — the band most legacy prox readers use. Its data structure is Configurable ASK/FSK/PSK/Manchester/biphase; native EM4100/EM4200 emulation + FDX-B (134.2 kHz). When you present a credential, the reader decodes that exact structure and passes it to your access-control panel as a card number it recognises.

As a programmable blank, the EM4305 / EM4469 is the raw material the rest of the catalogue is built on. We supply it factory-fresh and rewritable on the EM4305 platform, so you — or we — can encode it to emulate the proximity format your readers expect. It is the backbone of every 125 kHz compatible credential we ship.

To order, tell us the part number or format printed on your existing EM Microelectronic card, and our specialists confirm the encoding before anything ships. Bulk and reorder quantities are welcome — pricing is a fraction of OEM list, and every credential is verified to read on your existing equipment.

EM4305 / EM4469 — common questions

Is this a genuine EM Microelectronic card or a compatible one?

It is an independently manufactured compatible credential — engineered to the same specification as the EM4305 / EM4469 so it reads identically on your existing readers, but it is not an EM Microelectronic-branded product. Security ID Systems is independent and not affiliated with EM Microelectronic; your access-control panel accepts the credential exactly the same way.

What chip is the compatible EM4305 / EM4469 encoded on?

It is encoded on a EM4305 programmable chip. That platform reproduces the original 125 kHz LF data structure precisely, so the credential presents the same information your readers already accept.

What frequency and format is the EM4305 / EM4469?

It operates on 125 kHz LF, using configurable ask/fsk/psk/manchester/biphase; native em4100/em4200 emulation + fdx-b (134.2 khz). Matching that exact frequency and data structure is what makes a compatible credential work — a card on the wrong band or bit length simply will not read.
