iRFID100

Product Description

The Extronics iRFID100 brings RFID reader technology into the hazardous area, allowing reliable tracking solutions to be implemented in the harshest of environments. When used with Extronics extensive iTAG500 range of passive RFID tags, users can safely track and maintain any asset throughout the hazardous area. With up to 4 antenna outputs the iRFID100 provides a versatile solution for multiple read locations with just one fixed reader. The intrinsically safe RF outputs utilize Extronics patented RF Galvanic isolator technology allowing the use of specialist RFID antennas for long read range and excellent read reliability. The reader is a UHF multi protocol module for long range applications. With programmable output power in 256 steps from 17dBm to 32dBm, the reader can detect tags at distances of up to eight meters. The iRFID100 is fully compliant to the European regulations ETSI EN302208 and EN 300220, and supports Philips UCODE EPC 1.19, ISO 18000-6B and EPC Class1 Gen2.
