HID iCLASS SE Contactless Key II Smart Fob - Black/Blue
The HID iCLASS SE Contactless Key II Smart Fob (3250VNNNN) is a 13.56 MHz key fob credential from HID that carries HID's Secure Identity Object (SIO) for added security. It is black with a blue insert, made for a key ring, and read by HID's iCLASS SE and Signo readers, such as the HID iCLASS SE R15 reader - see Compatible Readers.
Each fob is programmed to your site before dispatch - your card format, facility code and numbers - and programming is included in the price. We collect those details on an order form after you order, so have them ready. This is a special order item.
These fobs are programmed to suit your access control system before they are sent, and programming is included in the price. After your order is placed, you will be asked to complete a separate order form with your site's details, and we cannot send your fobs until we have it. To avoid delays, have the following ready:
- Card format - 26-bit (H10301) is the most common; tell us if your site uses another format
- Facility / Site Code - the facility or site code your panel is set up for
- Start Number and End Number - the number range you need, chosen so it does not clash with credentials already in use
- Offset (if any)
- ICE / Elite Key (if any) - only where your site runs its own HID Elite key
- Order quantity and a site reference (if applicable)
This fob is ordered in and programmed for you - contact us for an estimated dispatch time before you order.
Key Features
- iCLASS SE - a read/write contactless key fob that uses HID's Secure Identity Object (SIO) for increased security.
- Made for a key ring - about 39 x 32 x 6 mm, with a key ring hole. HID says it can also go on a badge clip.
- Key II body - the same iCLASS Key II fob body as our HID iCLASS Key II fob: black with a blue insert and HID's standard artwork.
- 2k bit memory - 256 bytes in two application areas.
- Programmed for your site - each fob is programmed with the format, facility code and number your panel expects, at no extra charge. The number is programmed in, not printed on the fob. See Programming Details.
- Lifetime warranty from HID.
Compatible Readers
The iCLASS SE Key II works with HID readers that read iCLASS SE. From our range that is the HID iCLASS SE R15 reader, and HID Signo readers ordered in Smart Profile or Standard Profile.
Read range depends on the reader as much as the credential. These are HID's typical figures, and they vary with installation conditions, including a metal mounting surface. HID gives the R15 figures for credentials that carry its Secure Identity Object (SIO). HID Signo readers read iCLASS and iCLASS SE in their Smart and Standard profiles - the Seos Profile does not. Whatever the reader, the door opens only when the credential's format, facility code and number are ones your access control panel knows. The R15 figures are on page 2 of HID's iCLASS SE readers datasheet (PDF), and the Signo figure is on page 2 of its Signo datasheet (PDF).
What's in the Box
- 1 x HID iCLASS SE Key II contactless smart fob (3250VNNNN), programmed to your site's details
A key ring is not included.
Suitable Uses
- Sites that issue iCLASS SE credentials on HID iCLASS SE or Signo readers and need more fobs, or replacements for lost ones.
- Users who would rather carry a fob on their keys than a card in a wallet.
- Staff and tenant access for offices, apartment buildings and other commercial sites. See choosing a platform for commercial, office and retail sites.
Sites with older standard iCLASS readers - HID's ordering guide says iCLASS SE credentials are designed for iCLASS SE readers only and are not backwards compatible with iCLASS readers, so see the HID iCLASS Key II fob or check with us first. Readers that do not read iCLASS SE - 125 kHz proximity readers, and HID Signo readers in Seos Profile. The HID iCLASS SE RKLB40 biometric reader - it does not read iCLASS SE credentials. Photo ID - a fob cannot be printed with a photo; see our HID iCLASS smart cards.
Available Finish Options

Finish selection does not affect functionality, compliance, or performance. The fob is black with a blue insert; the swatch shows the black body.
HID iCLASS Credentials
We list eight HID iCLASS and iCLASS SE credentials on four listings - five cards, two key fobs and an adhesive tag.
The bold row is this product. All eight are 13.56 MHz HID credentials with 2k bit (256 byte) memory. The iCLASS SE ones also carry HID's Secure Identity Object (SIO) - match iCLASS or iCLASS SE to what your site's readers and existing credentials use. The Compatible Readers table lists the readers.
Full Specifications
Dimensions
These are the figures on the drawing in HID's ordering guide: 1.55 x 1.25 x 0.24 inches. For the same Key II body, HID's iCLASS Key II datasheet gives 39.5 x 31.8 x 6.0 mm at most and an ultrasonically welded ABS shell with a TPE insert, weighing 4.0 g - see page 2 of the iCLASS Key II datasheet (PDF).
Frequently Asked Questions
This fob is iCLASS SE. It carries HID's Secure Identity Object (SIO), which adds a layer of security on top of iCLASS, and HID's ordering guide says it is not available with standard iCLASS programming. The HID iCLASS Key II fob is the standard iCLASS version. The two share the same body, so match the technology to your site's readers and existing credentials.
HID readers that read iCLASS SE. From our range that is the HID iCLASS SE R15 reader and HID Signo readers in Smart Profile or Standard Profile. The Compatible Readers table lists them with the read range on each.
No, according to HID's ordering guide - it says iCLASS SE credentials are designed for installations of iCLASS SE readers only and are not backwards compatible with iCLASS readers. For a site with older standard iCLASS readers see the HID iCLASS Key II fob, or contact us to check your reader model.
Your card format, your facility or site code, the start and end numbers you want, any offset, your ICE or Elite key if your site has one, and how many you need. We send a separate order form for these after you order - the Programming Details note above lists them. Your installer or system administrator can usually supply them.
Close. On the R15, HID's typical figure is 4 cm for an iCLASS tag or fob against 9 cm for a card. HID quotes 4 to 10 cm for cards on its Signo readers and gives no figure for fobs or tags, noting that form factor can reduce range. The figures vary with installation conditions.
Additional Information
- Card format matters. A new card, fob or tag only works once its format, facility code and number range match what your panel expects. Have those details ready when you order credentials.
- Choose your number range with care. HID's open 26-bit format has 255 facility codes with 65,535 card numbers in each, and HID does not track who orders which numbers, so a duplicate is possible. Start a new batch above the highest number already in use on your site.
- Elite and Corporate 1000 sites. If your site runs its own HID Elite key or is on HID's Corporate 1000 program, tell us before you order so the fobs can be matched to it.
- What SIO adds. HID describes the Secure Identity Object as multi-layered security beyond the card technology, and says binding the object to a specific credential inhibits cloning. HID explains it on pages 1 and 2 of the iCLASS SE Clamshell Card datasheet (PDF).
- Allow for lead time. This is a special order item and it is programmed for your site, so contact us for an estimated dispatch time before you order.

HID Warranty
HID branded readers, credentials and accessories are covered by warranties issued by HID Global Corporation and its affiliated entities (part of ASSA ABLOY), distributed in Australia by LSC. Most HID readers and HID-branded credentials carry lifetime cover; a small number of specific models and accessories carry a fixed term instead.
The summary below sets out HID's published warranty structure. All warranty claims are handled by Terry's Tradies Pty Ltd and its associated websites, trading names, and subsidiaries. Full terms and exclusions are set out in the official HID Global Warranty Policy linked at the base of this page.
Warranty Summary
Understanding "Lifetime" Cover
HID's published policy uses the term "Lifetime Warranty Period" without defining it further - it is not stated as a fixed number of years, "for the life of the product", or "as long as you own it". It applies for as long as HID continues to honour that stated period under its published policy.
How to Make a Claim
- Contact Terry's Tradies Pty Ltd and its associated websites, trading names, and subsidiaries with your proof of original purchase and a description of the fault.
- Where a claim needs to be escalated, HID requires written notice from the end customer within the applicable warranty period - we handle this notification on your behalf.
- HID's remedy, at its own option, is to repair the product, replace it, or issue a credit towards a future purchase.
- Postage, insurance and shipping costs to present hardware for warranty assessment are the end customer's responsibility under HID's policy - we'll advise what's needed before anything is sent.
Exclusions
This warranty does not cover, and will be voided by, any of the following:
- Installation by anyone other than HID or an HID-authorised installer
- Use other than as authorised in HID's own documentation
- Modification, alteration or repair by a party other than HID
- Combination with hardware, operating systems or tools not provided by HID
- Accident, neglect, misuse or negligence
- Upgrades, evaluation units and demonstration units
- Consumables - batteries, paper, pads, cleaning solution, towels, cartridges and cables
Important Notes
This manufacturer warranty applies in addition to your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the ACL. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and to compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. Where a failure does not amount to a major failure, you are entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced.
HID's published policy states the warranty is solely for the benefit of the original end customer. Products purchased through Terry's Tradies Pty Ltd and its associated websites are covered as supplied - contact us in the first instance for any claim rather than approaching HID directly.
A small number of HID accessories (such as certain Signo mounting plates and wall spacers) are not individually named in HID's published policy. Where this applies, contact us to confirm the term that applies to your specific item before relying on the Lifetime cover shown above for readers.
