Viareggio (LU), 28 September 2009.
CAEN RFID, leading European supplier of UHF RFID products, announces today the availability of a new product of the easy2read© family: the QUARK reader. Model R1230C (aka QUARK) is an UHF multiregional ultra compact reader for low-power, high performances UHF RFID applications.
With programmable output power in 13 steps from 10dBm to 23dBm (10 to 200 mW), the reader can detect tags at more than 2m of distance (depending on antenna and tag dimensions). Due to its low power consumption, the module is specifically designed to be easily integrated in battery powered devices as well as powered directly by a standard USB port. The radio frequency core of the module permits to achieve fast reading and to be used in dense reader and dense tag environments for top-class rated performances.
The compactness of the device and the board-to-board connector allow to embed the R1230C inside the new small form factor industrial handhelds, smartphone accessories, small USB dongles and other compact form factor devices.
“The QUARK reader” says Giovanni Grieco, Sales and Marketing Director of CAEN RFID “is today the smallest UHF module of our well known and appreciated OEM offering. We believe this unit, thanks to its size and low power consumption, will soon become very popular in all the latest handheld devices and mobile applications”.
The R1230C complies with and can operate in both European and US regulatory environments and due to its multiregional capabilities, it’s ideal for integration in devices requiring compliance to different geographical regions. The QUARK module will be available in production in Q1, 2010, while samples for test will be available in a few weeks.
Information about CAEN RFID:
CAEN RFID is a leading Italian company in the design and production of RFID UHF readers and tags. CAEN RFID was the first company in Europe to produce and distribute UHF readers. Its active involvement in the EPC Global, AIM Europe and ETSI work groups have allowed it to provide RFID readers and tags which are in the vanguard of existing technology.
Amongst these the EASY2READ© readers/writers have been designed to permit the use of one single identification technology for reading either at close range or at a range of several metres; the EASY2TAG© tag, a passive UHF tag, has been designed for use on metal (for example in the identification of freight cars and lorries) and the semipassive EASY2LOG© tag can be used for the monitoring and recording of temperatures of perishable products in transit (such as food or chemical/pharmaceutical products in cold storage).
