Where are mobile UHF Readers required?

Stock takes perform full store inventory many
times more quickly than having to find and read each item level barcode. Retail at front / back of store verify goods
inwards match paperwork, quickly find items to allow

front of store to be replenished, find mis-shelved items in front of store. Asset management rapid inventory of assets, storing maintenance/inspection records on the asset where WAN connectivity is not guaranteed.
Where are mobile UHF Readers required?

Distribution reading/writing data to tags on pallets and roll cages before loading onto vehicles. Document tracking use find-a-tag mode to locate a folder. Manage document check in / check out. Exception scanning where an item cannot for some reason be read by standard fixed / portal readers. Maybe it is too bulky, or the tag is too small.
A few limitations of current mobile UHF RFID reader devices
Performance constraints read range, read rate, tag singulation, write performance, battery life (run time) etc.
Choice of operating system / user interface is limited to whatever the mobile reader offer
In situations where the majority of the mobile device usage is not for RFID the user can end up with an unnecessarily large and cumbersome dual technology handheld.
A few limitations of current mobile UHF RFID reader devices
End Users have to buy the reader and handheld together. When one is obsolete both must be replaced.
Existing handheld mobile computers are no longer any use and

must be thrown away when new mobile readers are purchased.
Incompatible with BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) and BYOP (Bring Your Own Phone) schemes.

Why the 1128 Bluetooth UHF RFID Reader is Different!
What makes the 1128 Bluetooth UHF RFID Reader different?

Works with ANY Bluetooth host device
any device with standard Bluetooth SPP wide range of host terminals are supported
Modular design allows you to configure the hardware for your specific requirements
Keep your installed base of handheld terminals Use low cost host consumer devices such as iPod Touch and cheap Android phones
BYOD and BYOP now possible to provide high

performance UHF RFID
Even stronger ROI when not replacing existing handheld devices!
