- A radio frequency identification (RFID) reader is a device that collects data from RFID tags,
which are used to track particular things. Data is transferred from the tag to the reader
through radio waves.
- There are 3 types of RFID Reader
- UHF Reader, HF Reader & LF Reader.
- Ultra-high radiofrequency identification, or UHF RFID, is becoming a more common technology
for asset management applications. UHF operates in the frequency range of 300 MHz to 3 GHz and
is one of the fastest growing RFID technologies. As a result, prospective end users have a
variety of options, such as active versus passive UHF RFID, fixed versus portable tag readers,
traditional PDAs versus new smart gadgets, and so on.
- Our HF/NFC RFID Readers have a high level of consistency. A radio frequency transmitter and
receiver is what an RFID reader is. RFID readers can both read and write data to RFID tags. NFC
is a type of High-Frequency (HF) RFID that uses the same 13.56 MHz frequency as HF RFID. NFC, on
the other hand, is intended to be a secure method of data transfer.
- Low frequency (LF) 125 kHz RFID readers interrogate RFID tags at a close proximity, with a
read range of up to 10cm (some special readers may read tags from an extended distance of up to
1m). Due to the LF 125 kHz frequency’s lower sensitivity to radio wave interference, these
readers are often used in configurations where metal and water are present.
