The device has a typical reading distance of 4 meters with exceptional high reading reliability.
The secret to its outstanding performance is Nordic ID’s cross-dipole antenna. Furthermore, the adjustable output power and a support for a sense reader mode, make it more flexible to create RFID solutions fitted for customer-specific needs. The RFID reader is fully compatible with a wide selection of ETSI standards, the standards of multi-channel management and NXP based tag reading. The new device is well suited to a number of applications, such as garment processing, pallet logistics, luggage handling and retail supply chains.
Director of R&D at Nordic ID, Hannu Heino, explained “feedback from our test clients have been highly encouraging. This device has been rigorously tested and developed to the point where we can be confident of its ability to perform even under the most demanding conditions.”
In addition to superior RFID performance Nordic ID PL3000 Cross Dipole is also fully ready for commercial applications. The device’s latest Windows CE 6 operating system allows for integration to all back end systems and provides tremendous speed. State of the art remote management and a number of easy to use functionalities are available or included with the device.
As with all other Nordic ID devices, the PL3000 Cross Dipole can be equipped with several communication options and other functionalities. Technologies such as GPRS, WLAN, Bluetooth, USB and barcode reader all combine to ensure seamless connectivity with back-office systems.
