eyond RFID.
The i-B series is the beacon generation of IDENTEC SOLUTIONS’
Intelligent Long Range
(ILR
) active RFID tags. Built on IDENTEC
SOLUTIONS’ patented high-performance technology, the i-B2L tag
provides impressive long-range capabilities for wireless applications
that require the benefits provided by beacon tags. Static data is written
on an i-BL tag and is continuously sent at a programmable interval
(ping rate) without being requested by a reader.
The i-B2L series offers an attractive price for continuous tag
collection in specific scenarios such as:
• Access control
• Tracking of Vehicles and Containers
• Online inventory
• Localization of assets or personnel at specific areas
(i.e. gates, dock doors)
Using advanced UHF radio frequency technology, i-B2L tags send
data at distances of up to 100 meters (300 feet) to either a mobile
(handheld) or fixed reader (interrogator).
Due to the ultra-low power consumption and configurable ping rate
(one second to four minutes), the i-B2L tag can effectively operate
maintenance-free for many years.
The i-B2L tag is the most economical choice for basic long-range
technology and is ideal for tracking mobile assets in more stable,
predictable environments.
Features Benefits
• 100-meter read range Allows the longest read-range for identification and tracking using beacon technology.
• Long battery lifetime Delivers long time maintenance-free
operation, without battery replacement.
The battery lifetime depends on the ping
rate, which is configurable.
• UHF operating frequencies Tags are available for both standard North American and European ISM band
frequencies.
• Non-line-of-sight data transmission Allows tags to be identified without the need of visual contact.
• Automatic transmission Tags do not have to be “woken” — they transmit automatically.
• Industrial housing Durable in demanding environments.
• Customizable ping rate Ensures that the frequency band is not busy.
• Low cost Economical choice for tracking assets with active RFID technology.
• Marker Technology Precise position location of the Tag via its 125KHz inductive loop coils in 3 axis.
