Serial Reader (RX210)

Wavetrend’s RX210 is an Active RFID Reader that supports long distance connection to host computers via RS485, in either star or daisy chain topologies. It is intended for use in systems that track tagged assets such as containers, plant and machinery or high value assets. In addition, it is used for monitoring personnel in health and safety and security applications.

Tag data and Reader status information is communicated to application software enabling complete management of all tagged assets and the automation of business decisions about them based on accurate and real-time knowledge of their location.

• Detects and decodes RFID signals from all of Wavetrend’s range of Active RFID Tags.
• Sends decoded Tag and associated metadata to a host computer via RS485, RS232, or USB interfaces.
• Can be dynamically configured over network, serial and USB interfaces.
