Savi Signpost SP-65X Series are short-range transmitters that provide their
identity information to all models of Savi® EchoPoint™ Series tags that are
within range. A tag uses this information to relay positional information
about itself to all models of Savi EchoPoint Series readers. The reader
forwards the collected data to the Savi SmartChain® Site Manager or
SmartChain Client Tools host platforms.
Savi Signpost SP-65X Series include a number of signpost models with
different capabilities and connectivity ranges. This series comprises the
basic signpost, signpost with network adapter, and signpost with network
adapter, reader, and ultra-high frequency (UHF) antenna.
Working with Savi readers, Savi Signpost SP-65X Series provide a
complete radio frequency identification (RFID) solution for real-time,
end-to-end visibility of goods and critical assets moving through the
supply chain.

For specific models:
◆ A short-range, low frequency inductive loop field generator triggers a
UHF transmission from Savi tags that pass through the field.
◆ An optional UHF reader plug-in provides most Savi reader functionality
including UHF transmission of wake-up and command signals and
reception Savi tags responses.
◆ An external ferrite rod antenna allows usage in compact, indoor areas
and for special applications.
◆ An included network adapter allows the signpost to transmit reader data
to a local server, display diagnostics, and perform network maintenance
functions, such as firmware downloading. The network adapter is a
microprocessor module with RS-232 and Ethernet ports and runs
SaviNet, TCP/IP, and UDAP protocols.
