Overview
This series of readers have built-in small gain PCB antenna, excellent structural design, can effectively prevent the tag from being misread or serial read, positioned in the use of close reading card scenarios. Suitable for supply chain management, asset management and other fields of card issuing applications and close card reading applications. At the same time, it can support the optional high-gain ceramic antenna, combined with the high-performance RFID module to meet the use of higher card reading performance scenarios. The series currently has three main products
