Motorola: XR450 Fixed RFID Reader

The XR450 enables customers to select between using four mono-static ports that each utilize a single antenna for transmit and receive, or four bi-static ports that utilize dual antennas. In this way, the XR450 RFID reader provides greater flexibility to adapt the reader to the intended application and perform deployments at the highest possible performance in the most challenging RF environments. Superior read rates and enhanced read ranges easily accommodate multiple RFID applications ? from the manufacturing floor to warehouse loading docks to the retail store front. Advanced data collection features enable the rapid delivery of refined real-time information.

The ability to incorporate alarms, light sensors and more from other automated asset equipment enables a wide range of business processes ? from dynamic reconfiguration of build-to-order assembly lines to real-time alerts that can prevent the placement of inventory in the wrong location.

The standards-based service-oriented architecture enables seamless integration and interoperability with existing IT infrastructure ? and maximum application flexibility. Robust RFID functionality includes support for standard back-end platforms, direct application hosting, and the ability to interact with additional asset automation equipment such as forklifts and conveyor belts. Support for leading business systems includes IBM?s Data Capture and Delivery Solution (DCDS) certified to work with IBM Premises Server 6.1 and 6.0, Microsoft RFID Biz Talk Server 2006 R2 and SAP as well as leading development tools including .NET 2.0 and off-the-shelf applications.

The ability to control and maintain all XR Series Readers from a single central location dramatically simplifies and reduces the costs associated with day-to-day management.
