Access Control RFID Reader with Built-In 7dBi Antenna
This access control RFID reader combines a UHF reader and built-in 7dBi circularly polarized antenna in one housing for fixed tag identification at controlled entry points.
Standard frequency options include 902–928 MHz and 865–868 MHz, with other frequency bands available for customization. The reader supports ISO 18000-6C / EPC Gen2 compatible UHF tags.
RF output is adjustable from 0 to 30 dBm through software. The specified standard reading distance is 0–5 m, with up to 8 m under high-power conditions. Wiegand 26/34 and trigger input support integration with compatible access control and automation systems.
7dBi Integrated Design for Access Control
The built-in 7dBi circularly polarized antenna creates an all-in-one fixed reading point without requiring a separate external RFID antenna.
For access control applications, the reader supports Wiegand 26/34 as well as timed automatic reading and external-trigger reading.
The 0–5 m standard reading range is suitable for applications where RFID tags need to be identified before reaching a controlled entrance. Actual range depends on the tag, RF output power and installation environment.
