UHF Reader
The UHF long-range reader is a high-performance device designed for seamless ETC/eTag vehicle identification. It can simultaneously read multiple passive electronic tags from up to 25 meters, operating within the 840-960MHz frequency range.
This device supports TCP/IP network communication, PoE power supply, trigger-based input/output control, and features an IP66 weatherproof design. This makes it ideal for a variety of RFID applications, including outdoor parking lots, automated gate control, access management, vehicle entry/exit systems, and smart logistics. It’s the perfect hardware to build an efficient and intelligent parking system.
Redefining Smart Parking with Dual-Verification Technology
As vehicle ownership and the demand for smart parking solutions continue to rise, integrating advanced technology is crucial. Our solution combines long-range eTag reading with a License Plate Recognition (LPR) system to create a powerful dual-verification solution. This not only enhances the efficiency of automated vehicle access but also significantly reduces misidentification errors and operational costs.
Compared to traditional access control systems, our UHF reader offers significant advantages:
■ Standalone Operation: It can function independently without a host PC.
■ Long-Range Detection: It can read tags from up to 25 meters away.
■ High Accuracy: It boasts a low error rate and supports high-speed vehicle passage (up to 100 km/h).
■ Open Standards: It uses an open 24-bit standard, freeing users from vendor lock-in and offering greater system flexibility and compatibility.
This dual-verification approach, combining LPR with long-range RFID, is particularly suited for corporate parking lots, residential communities, and tollbooth systems that require fast, frequent, and highly accurate vehicle access control.
Product Features
- Standalone Functionality: The reader can independently manage a pre-approved whitelist of up to 4,000 entries, controlling access without a PC. This significantly reduces wiring, hardware, and maintenance costs.
- Flexible List Management: Easily add or delete single or bulk entries, adapting to dynamic parking management needs.
- Open Communication Protocols: Compatible with EPC Class1 Gen2 and ISO 18000-6C electronic tags, it outputs an open international 24-bit standard code, eliminating restrictions from encrypted data formats.
- Ultra-Long Reading Range & Speed: Offers a maximum reading distance of 25 meters and supports high-speed vehicle passage at up to 100 km/h. The reading angle is also adjustable for different site conditions.
- Smart Trigger & Energy-Saving Control: Features a trigger-based reading mechanism and a built-in relay output that can directly control gates, ensuring low power consumption and efficient vehicle access.
- IP66 Weatherproof Design: The IP66 protection rating ensures reliable, all-weather performance for outdoor installation.
- Integrated Communication & Power: Utilizes TCP/IP and supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), with an auto-reconnect function to enhance system stability.
- Dual-Recognition Upgrade Path: The device is designed with an upgrade interface, allowing for seamless future integration with LPR systems for a more robust dual-verification solution.
