Description
The Times-7 A1001 UHF RFID Near Field Antenna is the world’s smallest commercially available wideband UHF near field antenna, designed for applications requiring accurate short-range RFID reads between 0 and 10 cm.
Unlike traditional HF proximity systems, the A1001 enables organisations to use the same UHF RFID readers, antennas and tags throughout their entire RFID infrastructure. This allows long-range inventory management alongside highly controlled single-tag reading at checkout stations, access control points and secure item verification locations.
Its compact 82 x 82 mm footprint makes it ideal where installation space is limited while providing exceptional near-field performance that eliminates unwanted tag reads.
The rugged ABS enclosure, IP65 environmental protection and simple SMA connection make the A1001 suitable for retail, libraries, security systems, manufacturing and asset tracking environments.
