HID ThinLine II 125 kHz Reader

The HID 5395CG100 is a fixed-mount proximity reader for 125 kHz access-control credentials. It suits installers who need a wall-switch form factor for door-entry systems. The unit operates on 5-16 VDC and supports either Wiegand or Clock-and-Data output for panel integration. It is built for indoor or outdoor mounting where a compact reader is required.

Fixed housing with pigtail and replaceable covers

The reader measures 4.70" x 3.00" x 0.68" and weighs .21 lb, fitting standard single-gang boxes. A pigtail cable simplifies termination without opening the sealed case. Replaceable covers let maintenance teams refresh the appearance without rewiring. The enclosure is rated for -30º to 65º C and 0-95% relative humidity non-condensing.

Multicolor LED and beeper under host or local

The bundle includes the reader with its attached pigtail and replaceable cover. Integrated multicolor LED and audible beeper provide visual and audible feedback. Behaviour can be driven by the host controller or by internal logic, giving installers flexibility in signalling access granted, denied or system status.

Questions about this item

Does the 125 kHz transmit frequency limit the read range to proximity distances?

Yes, the 125 kHz frequency is designed for proximity operation and delivers a consistent read range typical for close‑coupled access control.

What mounting footprint and clearance does the 4.70" x 3.00" x 0.68" reader require?

The unit fits a standard wall‑switch cut‑out; allow space for the 0.68" depth plus the pigtail cable bend radius behind the mounting surface.

How is the Wiegand or Clock‑and‑Data interface wired during installation, and what step is often missed?

Connect the pigtail leads to the controller matching the chosen protocol, then verify the LED/beeper control lines are terminated — many installers leave them floating.
