Selection Notes

The RS422 (3964R) point-to-point interface and 1000 m max cable length make this GEN2 reader the choice for installations where the reader sits far from the controlling communication module and a simple serial link is preferred over a fieldbus-integrated head. Its integrated antenna and 0 mm metal mounting distance let it be panel- or bracket-mounted directly on a steel frame without a separate antenna cable.

Applications

The 5-color LED status display and RS422 link suit conveyor read points and assembly-line RFID stations built around SIMATIC RF300 communication modules, reading RF300, ISO 15693, ISO 18000-3, or ISO 14443 transponders passing within antenna range.
