The ThingMagic USB
Plus+
RFID Reader is ideal for applications that require reading and writing
of EPC Global Gen2 tags on a desk or workstation and in areas where space is limited. The USB
Plus+
is controlled and powered by a host PC or laptop through a USB interface and is compat-
ible with ThingMagic’s application development tools, permitting rapid creation of RFID solutions.
With a software adjustable read distance up to 3 ft (0.91 m), the USB
Plus+
supports a variety of
applications, including RFID tag commissioning, manufacturing WIP, document tracking, library
book check in/out, retail point of sale, event and hospitality services, hospital patient workflows,
and more. The high-performance internal antenna of the USB
Plus+
is also ideal for commission-
ing high memory tags and reading small form factor RFID tags more effectively.
