The unit has a scanning range of up to 1 meter and a small size of just 5x5 inches, making it easy to fit in small spaces. In addition to industry-standard serial and Ethernet communications, it is also available with Power over Ethernet (PoE), which reduces setup time and installation costs since only one cable is needed for both power and Ethernet. The device uses the company's SOPAS configuration software and has onboard intelligence, which ensures easy operation and high accuracy when reading and writing data to tags. The unit is intended for mid-range sensing and identification applications in automotive, transport logistics, food and beverage, and storage and conveyor environments. With an integrated heater incorporated into the "Ethernet" variant (not PoE), it can also be used in deep freeze storage applications with temperatures as low as -40 ºC.
