Cloud access control 125 kHz / 13.56 MHz

Brivo Credentials

Brivo pioneered cloud-managed access control, and its panels span an AES-secured smart credential and standard open proximity. We explain how Brivo credentials are issued and supply the open 125 kHz proximity stock Brivo panels accept in legacy mode; the secured Brivo Unified Credential is provisioned through Brivo.

How it works

American Key Cards is an independent credential supplier and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Brivo. We do not sell Brivo credentials; this page exists to explain the technology. Brand names appear only to identify the systems discussed; all trademarks remain the property of their respective owners.

Questions about your credential fleet?

We don't sell Brivo credentials — but if your facilities also run 125 kHz proximity or open smart-card formats, we supply those, encoded and ready to enroll. Ask us anything about your mix.
