The New Cipherlab 1861 Handheld UHF RFID Reader

CipherLab has announced their new 1861 handheld RFID reader. The 1861 handheld RFID reader is designed to provide flexibility in data collection considering RFID technology has become a complementary solution to barcode labeling. Unique from typical RFID readers, the CipherLab 1861 handheld RFID reader provides user extended RFID reading and writing capabilities via most Bluetooth mobile devices. In addition, it can further integrate barcode capture and RFID data collection into one robust device by simply snapping your CipherLab 9600 series, CP50 series, or other mobile computers onto its custom mount attached to the CipherLab 1861 handheld RFID reader. In this way, users could enjoy hassle-free one-hand operation via single unit with high work efficiency. Additionally, it gives user the capability to read UHF (Ultra High Frequency) RFID tags in a distance up to 1 m (3 ft.), and write data up to 0.5 m (1.6 ft.) away – this makes it much easier while scanning tags on products as pallets are moved through a dock door or scanning cases on a high shelf in a warehouse.

“The deployment of RFID technologies has been picking up in environments such as warehouse operation, logistics, manufacturing, and retailing industries. UHF RFID systems are getting more attention due to the benefits it could generate and the improvement that has been made. We aim to fulfill as many needs and expand our products to better serve our customers.” commented by Sherman Chuang, President of CipherLab.

The 1861 handheld RFID reader is armed with proven durability. It is certified with IP64 rating and withstands 1,000 tumbles at 1 m (3 ft.), also sustains multiple drops on concrete from 1.5 m (5 ft.). Simultaneously, the 1861 handheld RFID reader can be easily configured through PC, Windows mobile computers, CipherLab terminals, and a .NET SDK for user development,.
