Active RFID UHF Beacon Tag

News

GAO RFID Inc. has launched its cost-effective active RFID UHF beacon tag with long-range. It offers outstanding long-range capabilities for wireless applications. This UHF tag is appropriate for tracking mobile assets, controlling access or online inventory, and localizing of assets or personnel in designated areas.

This active RFID UHF beacon tag, model 137001, operates at a frequency of 868 MHz for Europe standard or 915 MHz for North America standard. It uses advanced UHF radio frequency technology and transmits data to a mobile or fixed reader at distances of up to 100 meters. Static data which is written on the tag can be sent at a programmable interval without requiring a request from the reader. The function of non-line-of sight data transmission allows tags to be identified without the need of visual contact. Its ultra-low power consumption and configurable ping rate enables effective operation for many years without maintenance. In addition, it provides a memory capacity of 9 bits and an IP65 protection rating and is encapsulated within a durable case allowing it to perform well even in harsh environments.

This long-distance RFID beacon tag yields rather high performance when used in combination with GAO’s 227004 UHF RFID Reader. This active RFID tag belongs to GAO’s family of RFID Semi-Passive Tags. The family allows for longer read range and the ability not only to determine the location of an item but also it's state such as the temperature of goods. This family of tags offers GAO’s customers various choices. GAO RFID has one of the broadest portfolios of RFID readers and tags in the industry.
