Hagerstown, MD /PRNewswire/ - Jamison RFID (a division of Jamison Door Company), the leading manufacturer and integrator of rugged, purpose-built RFID portals and communications enclosures, today announced a new partnership and solution set with Active Identity, of Fort Myers, Florida. The companies will focus on delivering Smart RFID solutions in areas such as Manufacturing, Distribution, Healthcare and Office environments.

Jamison RFID's protected, fully-functional, all-in-one RFID Smart Portals and read stations are plug-and-play, which eliminates the hassles associated with deploying RFID solutions in busy environments. Based on customers' vertical application needs, Jamison can provide a Smart RFID portal that is ready to read tags as soon as it is plugged in.

Jamison's new RFID Smart Portal will integrate Active Identity's Envoy.
