Active RFID Tags: Features, Specifications, and Deployment Guidelines

M174-i IT Asset Tag (shown with red tab installation tool)

The M174-i Infrared IT Asset Tag is designed for use with rack-mounted assets and should be deployed in concert with RF

Code's A740 Rack Locators and A750 Room Locators to provide room-level and rack-level location accuracy. M174-I tags,

which are 40% smaller than R104/R114 tags, are deployed using one of a variety of “tabs” that is appropriate for the

application. Different tab form factors facilitate the tagging of otherwise difficult-to-tag items. Another benefit of the tab is

that the asset tag is easily reused by simply replacing the tab with a new one.

The Flag tab shown above is typically used on rack-mounted IT assets and can be considered a reusable version of the

R104 IT Asset tag.

OTAB-i020 - Thin Loop Tab (Feed-Thru)

The Thin Loop Tab shown above is typically used on small, difficult-to-tag IT assets such as blade servers and can easily be attached to

handles of IT assets.
