Psion Teklogix and CAEN Drive Innovation Through
New RFID UHF Reader for Industry-Leading WORKABOUT PRO
First multiregional ruggedized device based on the Impinj IndyTM R1000
Reader Chip available for the North American market will help drive RFID
adoption
Cincinnati, Ohio (April 27, 2009) -- In its efforts to drive innovation
in, and adoption of RFID technology, Psion Teklogix, Inc. (LSE: PON.L),
a global provider of mobile computing solutions, today announced the
integration of Gen 2 CAEN UHF RFID's A528 compact reader into Psion
Teklogix's handheld WORKABOUT PRO. The WORKABOUT PRO's rugged, flexible
handheld computer, combined with the A528's ability to operate in the
U.S. (FCC part 15), European (ETSI EN 302 208), and IC (Canadian)
regulatory environments, creates the first multiregional ruggedized
mobile device available for the North American market.
"In order to further adoption of RFID, technological innovations such as
the WORKABOUT PRO and its smart integration of the CAEN A528 RFID Reader
with the Impinj IndyTM R1000 reader chip are needed to create new
capabilities and additional uses for technology, including high density
RFID tag reading," said Pierre Bonnefoy, director of RFID Solutions at
Psion Teklogix. "This integration provides the market with a mobile
computing device that combines the best of leading-edge technologies
from CAEN and Impinj."
Psion Teklogix's goal is to deliver mobile handheld solutions that
seamlessly provide companies with mission-critical data where and how
they want it, in real-time. As a world-leader of RFID mobile terminals,
Psion has strengthened its position by providing global organizations
with a technological competitive advantage, all within the small,
ergonomically-friendly footprint of the WORKABOUT PRO.
"The WORKABOUT PRO, with our A528 high speed RFID reading capability in
dense tag environments, is a breakthrough compared to previous UHF RFID
reader options," said Giovanni Grieco, Sales and Marketing Director of
CAEN RFID. "The combination of the WORKABOUT PRO's size and ruggedness
with our A528's multiregional capabilities make this the ideal device
for world-wide mobile worker productivity."
"The WORKABOUT PRO's features, including our Indy R1000 reader chip,
open the door to new applications for RFID in industries such as
healthcare, pharmaceuticals, asset management, finance and aviation,"
said Kerry Krause, vice president of marketing at Impinj, Inc. "The
solid performance, small size and low power consumption features of the
R1000 make it the perfect fit for Psion Teklogix's new versatile handheld."
This breadth and depth of capabilities make Psion Teklogix the number
one RFID solutions provider in North America. The integration between
Psion Teklogix, CAEN RFID and Impinj is just the most recent example of
Psion Teklogix commitment to making mobile workers more engaged and
productive, ensuring a return on mobility to our customers.
