Wireless 4 - 15
Near Field Communications
NFC/HF RFID is a short-range wireless connectivity technology standard that enables secure transaction between
a reader and a contactless smart card. The technology is based on ISO/IEC 14443 type A and B (proximity), Felica
and ISO/IEC 15693 (vicinity) standards, using the HF 13.56 MHz unlicensed band. The WT6000 supports three
operating modes:
•
Reader mode
•
Peer-to-Peer communication
•
Card Emulation mode.
Using NFC, the WT6000 can:
•
Read contactless cards such as contactless tickets, NFC labels, HF tokens or standard smart cards.
•
Read and write information to contactless cards such as SmartPosters and tickets, as well as devices with
NFC interface such as vending machines.
•
Read information from supported medical sensors.
•
Pair with supported Bluetooth devices such as printers and headsets. See Pairing Using Near Field
Communication on page 3-6 for instruction on pairing the RS6000 Ring Scanner with the WT6000 using
NFC.
•
Exchange data with another NFC device.
•
Emulate contactless card such as ticket or V-card.
The WT6000 NFC antenna is uniquely positioned to read NFC cards from the front of the device.
