We provide passive EPC UHF readers for long range reading deployments such as logistics, vehicle identification or hands-free access. EPC 2.0 Compact provides reading distances up to 10 meters, with cost-effective and reliable passive long-range tags. EPC 2.0 is a small UHF reader with reading distances up to 4 meters. It is very suitable for hands-free access control applications, such as hospitals or other workplaces where personnel need to pass an access point without touching their tags, or the reader. Instead, if deployed with automatic doors, EPC 2.0 Compact provides a hygienic, fast and convenient, but still identified access, just by passing the reader that reads a tag in e.g. personnel’s clothing.
