ALR-F800
Fifth Generation Enterprise RFID Reader
Feature Enabled By Benefi t
Ease of Use
• Alien Reader Protocol or LLRP (coming)
• Smart reader/autonomous mode
• Alien Reader Control Architecture &
Ruby
• Power over Ethernet
• Easy to set up and deploy
• No additional costly controllers
• Less maintenance and overhead
Industry leading PoE
transmit power & power
source agnostic
• Under PoE power, outputs 31.5dBm –
signifi cantly more than other readers
• Dynamically switches between power
sources when power fails
• No power supply expense or bulk
• Uses standard PoE
• Best read sensitivity when plenum/ceiling
mounted
• Increased reliability
Dynamically self-optimizing
for best possible real-world
performance
e.g. noisy or multi-reader
environments
• Dynamic “Smart-throttling” in adverse
RF environments
• Intelligent real-time Phase Cancellation
• Maximizes the sensitivity and
interference rejection in all environments
• Other confi dential techniques
• Robust against signifi cant tag collisions
• Maintains optimal sensitivity even in
highly refl ective environments
• More likely than competitors to read tags
in high interference environments (other
readers and RF sources)
Extensible and obsolescence
proof
• Reconfi gurable RF subsystem – Enables
RF performance upgrades
• MicroSD slot
• USB Host
• Firmware modernization
• Enables virtually any amount of memory
to be added
• Add external peripherals including cellular,
WiFi or BT
• Auto “Seek” function for low duty cycle applications
• RoHS EU 2002/95/EC compliant
