2.4. System Components Readers
The i-PORT M350-2 is a reader for the i-Q350 and i-B350 series of
IDENTEC SOLUTIONS’s Response and Broadcast Transponders. Built into a
compact housing, the i-PORT M350-2 reads and writes data to the
transponders at distances of up to 500 meters (1640 feet) on two
antennas. Connection to the host system is established via a RS422
interface, resulting in the capability to connect up to 8 readers in a Daisy
Chain using commercially available CAT 5 cables and connectors.
A simple master/slave protocol enables data exchange. Not only does the
protocol contain the data received from the transponder, but it can also
provide information about the time of data reception, field strength and
information about the number of times the transponder has been received
by the reader.
The battery powered mobile reader with Bluetooth and USB interface communicates with a wide
spectrum of handheld devices and tablet computers. It is ideally suited for mobile applications such as
laydown yards and personnel safety.
With its integrated Bluetooth interface, the mobile reader can communicate with a wide range of
mobile devices independent of platform or operating system.
The compact and robust housing with internal antenna is designed to be mounted onto a handheld
device or a tablet computer. The small form factor also allows users to carry the reader in a pocket.
