People buy readers and argue about tags, and then the installation underperforms because of the antennas. Gain, polarisation, beam width and mounting angle decide what actually gets read. We select and position antennas from the geometry of your doorway, lane or shelf — not from a catalogue default.

In plain words

The antenna is the part that sends the radio energy out and picks the tag replies up. A circular-polarised antenna reads tags at any orientation, which suits mixed goods. A linear antenna reads further but only when the tag is aligned, which suits a controlled conveyor.

The range

What you get from us

Not just the box

Selected from your geometry

We work out beam coverage from your door width, ceiling height and traffic direction before recommending a gain and an angle.

Bleed control

Stray reads from the next aisle or the next lane are the most common cause of bad data. Antenna choice and shielding is how we stop it.

Cables and connectors included

Correct-length low-loss cable, connectors and mounts supplied. A long thin cable can lose more signal than a reader upgrade gains.

Indoor and outdoor

IP67 and IP68 options for gates, yards, washdown areas and cold stores.

Where it is used

Typical applications

Dock door portals
Vehicle entry lanes
Smart shelves and cabinets
Laundry and parcel tunnels
Point of sale and encoding desks

Solutions that use it

Compatible software

What it runs with

Warehouse Management SystemInbound to dispatch, counted by RFID instead of by hand Entrance Automation SystemGates, visitors and vehicles handled without a register RFID Laundry Management SystemCount linen in and out of every wash, per customer and per department Universal Enterprise Asset & Business Operations PlatformThe flagship — asset tracking joined to daily operations, in any industry

It also works with software we did not write. We integrate at protocol level, so this hardware can be driven from your own system — that is a service we offer.

Bulk, MOQ and OEM

Antennas are quoted with cables, mounts and the site survey that decides where they go. We are happy to supply antennas alone to integrators who do their own commissioning.
