Paxton 692-500 Net2 Proximity ISO Cards (Pack of 10)

The process is essentially:

1. The card arrives already encoded

Each 692-500 contains the electronic proximity credential required by the Paxton system. Paxton’s Net2 configuration documentation refers to Paxton tokens as having their own encoded/encrypted token number. You are not buying a blank RFID card that needs to be programmed before use.

2. You enrol the card in Net2

An administrator creates or opens the person’s record in the Net2 PC software.

The card is then presented to a Net2 desktop reader connected to the computer. The desktop reader reads the card’s token number and allows it to be associated with that user. Paxton specifically describes its desktop reader as a device for adding tokens to Net2.

So, for example:

Card 12345678 → John Smith → permitted through Main Entrance + Office, Monday–Friday

The access permissions themselves are managed in Net2; you aren’t writing those permissions onto the 692-500 card.

3. The user presents the card at a door

When John presents the card to a compatible Paxton reader, the reader authenticates/reads the credential and the Net2 system checks the associated user’s permissions. Access is then granted or denied as appropriate.

Paxton states that these credentials use Hitag2 technology with proprietary encoding, including an authentication exchange between the token and reader
