Gen 2 RFID tag
The Halo passive UHF EPC Gen 2 RFID tag for retail logistics combines lightweight materials with a small footprint for durability and on-metal performance. The tag may be used for tracking returnable transit items and storage shelf identification. Measuring 0.55 x 2.36 x 0.46 inches, each tag is made from high-strength, temperature- resistant plastic that provides IP68 protection. Tags may be attached with adhesive or magnetic tape, or with cable ties to metallic cables or pipes. With a read range of 3 to 4 meters onmetal, the tag works with both fixed and handheld readers. ...more

Print-and-apply label engine
Increasing label productivity and placement accuracy in demanding print and apply applications is the automated print and apply PA30 applicator print engine. The unit includes an extra input/output receptacle and executes user-defined
programs without a separate computer. Up to seven wired and wireless interfaces may be connected, allowing the engine to access information directly from the network host and issue commands to production line machinery, conveyors and other printers. Features include individually controlled micro-step motors, high-capacity power supply and thermal management print head that outputs 203 or 300 dpi resolution labels at 12 inches-persecond....more

RFID deployment
The IntelliAntenna IA-100C UHF interrogator connects directly via Ethernet to leverage existing networking infrastructure for both power and connectivity. It works with EPCglobal Class 1 Gen2 RFID tags and replaces reader-antenna combinations. It eliminates the reader hardware and transfers data processing to the server stack to simplify deployments. Features include an antenna with circular polarization that detects within a range of up to 14 feet, and the ability to perform read, write, lock, kill duplicate removal and time-stamp functions. XML format data transfer allows information to be imported into standard business applications....more

Manage complex RFID applications simply
Intel Celeron M 600MHz processorThe IF61 Enterprise RFID reader features an Intel Celeron M 600MHz processor with storage and memory capacity for complex applications. It stores tag data and operates peripheral devices without a dedicated computer. Built for high-volume operations, the unit includes 1GB of scalable Flash memory and an optional 40GB spinning drive to store data from billions of EPC tags. The reader’s store and forward capabilities and onboard memory ensure data security. Applications written in Java, Java Script, Visual Basic .NET, or C# .NET all run on the reader. The system also performs industrial PC and server functions including filtering, storing, manipulating or formatting information from tags before sending data to the host in the required format. ...more

Pre-programmed RFID label for DoD suppliers
Priced at 99 cents each, the Gen2 RFID pro-label is designed to offer a simple slap-and-ship solution for small- and medium-sized Department of Defense (DoD) suppliers who prefer not to invest in RFID hardware. The waterproof label consists of a synthetic, 12-mil, expanded poly face-stock that provides electrostatic discharge resistance up to 10 KV. In addition, the face-stock acts as a buffer to protect the silicon RFID chip from damage in handling. Each shipment of pro-labels includes a certificate of compliance with MIL-STD 129P Change 3 and the DoD RFID DFARS....more
