GAO RFID recently launched a new passive ultra-high frequency Gen 2 RFID tag. The tag is designed for use in retail and supply chain management, asset tracking, document management and logistics.
This RFID tag, model 116008, is waterproof, dust proof, and is resistant to immersion in salt water, alcohol, oil, and 10 percent HCL ammonia. In addition, it is vibration resistant and tuned for edge-on reading.
The passive tag is compliant with the EPC Class 1 Gen 2 standard and the ISO18000-6C protocol. It operates at frequency range of 902 – 928 MHz for US standards and has a 96-bit memory capacity for data storage.
The RFID tag, which provides both near-field and far-field communication modes, is also suitable for item-level tagging applications. It enables multi-detection and offers a maximum read quantity of 400 tags per second.
