I am working on a pilot project to supply my users with a single card for Sun Ray + physical access. We don't have control over the choice of technologies used for physical access here at the university, and our Center is spread across several floors and buildings. This means we have both proximity and magstripe systems in use. I have been researching this for awhile and came across a previous thread back in 2007 that touched on this topic, but I'm wondering if others on the list have faced the same problem and what solutions they are using.

It seems the best and perhaps only card that would meet our needs is the HID Smart DuoProx II. Their website still claims that a contact smart chip can be embedded as an option but they no longer list them in their order guide. When I contacted HID by phone they said they no longer offer embedded chips on those cards. They are instead pushing the Crescendo C200 and C700 (http://www.hidcrescendo.com/).

So far I've found no mention of anyone using the Crescendo cards with Sun Rays but it looks like they could work. Anyone using these or have other suggestions?

Thanks.
