CS468 16-Port RFID Fixed Reader

CS468 16-Port Reader is an Ethernet POE connected UHF EPC C1 G2 RFID reader with long read range and high read rate. This 16 port reader has fine grain control of RF output from the 16 ports that enables very high speed antenna switching, making it be suitable for fine grain multiport operations including smart-shelf for retails, document control, multi-lanes reading for vehicle tracking, and applications that either continuous monitoring or periodic inventory of large number of segmented space is needed. With the same API as CS203E integrated reader, the application development time can be greatly reduced and leading to faster time to market.
