M/A-COM now provides multi-protocol fixed and embedded readers powered by ThingMagic. They can read any type of tag and are software configurable so your equipment does not become obsolete with the future evolutions of RFID technology.
The Mercury4, ThingMagic's fourth generation fixed agile reader, is intelligent and network ready. It reads any tag, including ISO, EPC Class 0, EPC Class 1 and the new EPC Generation 2. Mercury4 is a pure network device - a computer that speaks TCP/IP natively, and fully supports standard network technologies including DHCP, UDP/IP over Ethernet, 802.11x, HTTP, SNMP and remote upgrades.
The Mercury4e is the embedded version of ThingMagic's Mercury4 reader, designed to provide high powered agile RFID capability to label printers, print and apply machines, and any other systems that need to read and write singulated RFID tags of any protocol at high speed. The reader is credit card-sized, supports 2 antennas, and just like the Mercury4, reads any tag, including the new EPC Generation 2 as well as older protocols such as ISO 18000-6B, EPC Class 0, re-writeable EPC Class 0 and EPC Class 1.
M/A-COM also offers demonstration kits for the Mercury4 reader. Each kit contains a M4 reader, antennas, cables, stands, and software - everything you need to get an RFID portal up and running.
