capable of conducting wireless communication with the tag through antenna, and
perform reading and writing operation on tag ID code and memory data.
1.2 Main usage and application range
XC-RF850 reader is a high performance UHF reader, compatible with the
ISO18000-6C tags. In addition to a built-in circular polarization antenna or a
built-in linear polarized antenna, the XC-RF850 reader provides one external
antenna port, which allows cost-effective external antenna solutions.
Compared to similar products in the market, the XC-RF850 reader has the
advantages of compact appearance, exible installation, high protection level,
and can meet the requirement of customer’s dual antenna application.
XC-RF850 reader can meet a variety of application needs, especially in parking
lot management and electronice toll collection.
