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.

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

The 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. 







The rugged and durable RX2 lift truck-mounted RFID reader is a simple, easy-to-install, vehicle-mounted technology that reads EPC Class 0, Class 1 and C1G2 (Gen 2) tags. It can be used for standard RFID based forklift pallet move applications such as shipping, receiving, picking and put-away where EPC RFID-based identification of pallet loads and locations is used.
The RD5000 compact, mobile Gen 2 RFID reader can be integrated with forklifts, pallet jacks, stretchwrappers, and other materials handling equipment, and used in various space-constrained environments. Features include cable-free operation, an integrated antenna, Bluetooth communication capabilities and wireless connectivity.
