Kathrein Solutions introduces two groundbreaking RFID innovations designed to meet the increasing demand for compact, efficient, and high-performance solutions in logistics, supply chain management and industrial applications.
Kathrein’s next-gen RFID readers: smaller, more efficient and more powerful:
Kathrein presents the fourth-generation Gen4 RFID readers, designed to meet the market’s growing demand for compact size, high energy efficiency and versatile applications. Available in two versions, the ARU model includes an integrated antenna with three external ports, while the RRU model offers four external antenna outputs for flexible use. The digitally switchable phased-array antenna system in the ARU allows precise read zone adjustments, eliminating the need for RFID gates and streamlining operations.These new readers help businesses optimize RFID-based solutions while significantly enhancing system performance. With a 40% reduction in power consumption and 10x improved reception sensitivity, these readers ensure accurate tracking even in complex environments. They also enable real-time inventory tracking across various applications.
Ultra-Slim EDGE Line Antennas for efficient RFID integration
Alongside the Gen4 readers, Kathrein introduces the EDGE Line antennas, an innovative family of ultra-slim 6mm UHF RFID antennas designed for space-saving and efficient integration. With IP54 protection, they withstand outdoor conditions, making them ideal for logistics and material flow applications. Additionally, Kathrein has prioritized sustainability by designing these antennas with 30% recycled materials. The EDGE Line antennas are expected to be available from Q3.
