Rugged Construction

A rugged, unibody, steel chassis encloses RFID electronics and accessories. An integrated, 110 mil steel kickplate resists glancing blows from equipment and personnel. High-impact, RF-transparent industrial plastic covers ensure unimpeded transmission of RF signals, while presenting a sleek, professional appearance. Reader status lights are viewable through a clear plastic window. The safety-yellow chassis helps ensure visibility in high-traffic environments.

Easy to Install and Service

The appliance houses a reader and antennas, eliminating the need to route coax cable outside the cabinet. Sturdy mounting hardware for optional light stacks, presence detectors and wireless LAN provides flexibility in implementation. An integrated horn provides a programmable, audible alarm.

Installation is fast and simple; the unit does not need to be opened at installation. Complete access to AC power, LAN and accessory connections is available through a removable plate on the top of the unit. Fourfloor-mounted bolts in the steel baseplate secure the unit to the floor. Covers can be easily removed if desired, providing complete, unobstructed access to the interior for service.
