 Available
as a stand alone reader or a module for easy integration into
an existing housing - Four addressable antenna ports for flexible, economical deployment
of RFID across multiple portals or conveyor assemblies
- Custom-configurable serial interfaces for connection to programmable
logic controller equipment
- Designed for indoor industrial environments
Intermec’s Intellitag® team, with over a decade of
success designing, producing, installing, and supporting radio
frequency identification (RFID) solutions worldwide, introduces
a new FCC-approved fixed reader, the ITRFxxx01, and module, the
ITRMxxx01, to the existing Intellitag family of RFID tags, scanners
and readers. Packaged in a sturdy extruded aluminum enclosure
with an available power supply, the readers are ready for freestanding
installation in indoor industrial environments. The modules are
supplied without the aluminum housing, making them ready to integrate
into other systems and enclosures.
The reader and module, available in either 915 MHz or 2450 MHz
frequency bands, are ready for integration into supply chain management
for retail operations, industrial manufacturing, and logistics
applications.
Both units are ideal for RFID solutions requiring an extended
read range, multi-tag sort, read/write, and memory capacity not
provided by “proximity” technology.
With four antenna ports, users can deploy a single ITRFxxx01
reader or module with four antennas, instead having to install
four separate readers with one antenna each. This reduces the
"cost per antenna," especially when identifying relatively
small numbers of items at a time in multiple locations.
The ITRFxxx01 series Intellitag readers are specifically designed
to provide cost effective solutions for implementing RFID into
environments using programmable logic controllers (PLC), where
RS232 and RS422 connections dominate. The serial port on the ITRFxxx01
or ITFMxxx01 allows the readers to be directly installed and run
under the command of a PLC.
RF power output and duty cycle are programmable with both models.
This gives the user the flexibility to inexpensively custom-configure
the readers' operation to meet specific regulatory requirements
governing the consumption of RF bandwidth, or to meet specific
user requirements, such as the need to coexist with a wireless
LAN installation.
Applications standards organizations, such as ANSIMH10, are adopting
Intellitag technology because it is proving to be both practical
and reliable in real-world industrial environments that require
identification and data capture from multiple, non-uniformly oriented
items at ranges in excess of 1 to 2 meters.
Physical Description: The Intellitag® Fixed
Reader, or ITRFxxx01, available in both 915 MHz and 2450 MHz frequency
bands, is a rugged radio frequency identification (RFID) reader
appropriate for use in indoor industrial environments. The reader
can also be purchased as a module, without the aluminum housing,
for integration into an existing system.

- Identify, Read & Write Examples*
Configured for U.S. FCC Part 15 operation at a distance of 50%
of the maximum read range
Identifies up to 40 tags per second
Reads a tag (8 bytes of data) within 12 ms
Performs a verified write at an average rate of 31 ms per byte,
per tag
- Range Performance Examples*
With FCC unlicensed operation scanner/programmer and dual antenna
configuration. Writes up to 70% of read range.
2450 MHz -- Reads at 1.5 meters with a single antenna and 60-mm
tag
915 MHz -- Reads at 3 meters with a single antenna and 105-mm
tag
* Rates and ranges will vary by tag spacing, movement, mounting
surface, surrounding materials, and orientation.
