13.56 MHz FM11RF08 RFID Contactless Cards for Hotel Locks

DAFTags FM11RF08 RFID contactless cards are designed for hotel locks, access control, campus cards, and membership systems. The FM1108 chip uses a 13.56 MHz contactless interface and an 8 Kbit EEPROM with 16 memory partitions.

The card can be supplied blank or customized with printing, numbering, magnetic stripe, signature panel, and encoding. Before ordering, confirm that the hotel lock or access system accepts the FM11RF08 chip and the required data format.

Why Customer Trust Us ?

• Hotel locks do not all accept the same RFID chip: FM11RF08 cards are commonly used in compatible hotel access systems, but the lock or reader must support the card type and security setup. Test a sample before a full order.
• Sector keys can cause failed card encoding: The chip has 16 partitions and two password sets per partition. The hotel lock supplier must confirm the keys, data structure, and card initialization process.
• Custom hotel cards need consistent printing: Logo, room number, brand colors, barcode, and any guest-facing information should be confirmed before the batch starts to avoid reprints.
• Replacement cards must match existing locks: When new cards are added to an installed system, the chip model, data format, and lock compatibility should match the existing card population.
• Card quality affects front-desk operations: Card material, thickness, surface finish, and encoding should be controlled to reduce failed reads and replacement work.

What Is an FM11RF08 Hotel Key Card?

An FM11RF08 hotel key card is a contactless smart card built on the FM1108 chip. It communicates at 13.56 MHz and uses ISO/IEC 14443 Type A technology for short-range access.

The chip has an 8 Kbit EEPROM organization and is commonly used in hotel locks, access control, time attendance, membership, parking, and closed-loop campus systems. It is not a bank payment card.

Key Features

• FM1108 RFID Chip: 13.56 MHz contactless chip for compatible hotel and access readers.
• 8 Kbit EEPROM: Provides 1K x 8-bit memory organization for access and identification data.
• 16 Memory Partitions: Two password sets are available for each partition, subject to the system design.
• Custom Card Printing: Offset, silkscreen, digital, and inkjet printing options are available.
• Multiple Card Crafts: Numbering, magnetic stripe, barcode, signature panel, UV, foil, and anti-fake features can be discussed.
• Encoding Support: Cards can be encoded according to the project data and lock-system requirements.

Applications

• Hotel room access cards
• Enterprise and campus all-in-one cards
• Time attendance systems
• Parking and community access
• Membership and loyalty programs
• Closed-loop stored-value and access systems

Hotel Lock Compatibility

RFID hotel cards must match the lock manufacturer's chip, frequency, protocol, and data format. A card that looks the same may still fail if the sectors, keys, or initialization process do not match the installed system.

Send the lock brand and model, existing card type, required sectors, and encoding details before ordering. Test one encoded sample in the actual lock before approving bulk production.

Card Craft and Encoding

The card can be supplied blank or produced with printed artwork and project-specific data. Confirm artwork and encoding together so the physical card and system data are ready at the same time.

• Offset, silkscreen, digital, or inkjet printing
• DOD, thermal, UV, or embossed numbering
• Magnetic stripe
• Signature panel
• UV spot, hot foil, silver or gold background
• Anti-fake feature
• Card encoding

Procurement Notes

Before production, confirm:

• Hotel lock or reader brand and model
• Required chip, frequency, and protocol
• Sector keys and data format
• Printing, numbering, barcode, magnetic stripe, and encoding details
• Read distance with the installed lock
• MOQ, sample policy, card finish, thickness, and production schedule

Will these cards work with our hotel locks?

Only if the lock system accepts FM11RF08 cards and the required ISO/IEC 14443 Type A setup. Send the lock brand, model, and existing card details before ordering.

Are the cards supplied blank?

The standard item is listed as a blank RFID card. Encoding can be discussed for hotel and access projects.

Can the cards be printed with our hotel logo?

Yes. Offset, silkscreen, digital, and inkjet printing options are available. Confirm the artwork file and card finish before production.

Can the cards be encoded before shipment?

Encoding can be discussed. Provide the sector keys, data format, and lock-system requirements for confirmation.

How much memory does the card have?

The chip has 8 Kbit of EEPROM with 16 partitions and two password sets per partition. The usable data structure depends on the lock or access system.

Can I request samples?

Sample availability depends on the current production schedule. Test a sample in the actual lock before approving bulk production.
