hieve maximum visibility and efficiency in your most rugged environments, your business needs an RFID reader that can keep up with the high volume and wide variety of pallets, cases and tagged items that go in, out and through your warehouse and dock doors each day. The Zebra FX9600 Fixed UHF RFID Reader delivers the performance and features you need to handle it all. With support for Power over Ethernet, IP53 sealing and up to eight RF ports, the FX9600 brings a new level of cost efficiency to passive UHF asset tracking and inventory management, without compromising on performance. Industry-leading read rates, long read ranges and exceptional RF sensitivity ensure you can automate inventory management - from receiving and putaway to picking and shipping - without errors and without bottlenecks. The result? Increased efficiency and accuracy every time your inventory is touched, reduced labor costs and the delivery of the right product to the right customer, on time, every time. When you need industry-best RFID performance, the FX9600 delivers.
TOP OF THE LINE PERFORMANCE | High RF sensitivity for superior performance and efficiency
The faster and more accurately you can receive, inventory, pick and ship, the more efficient and profitable your operation can be. The FX9600's eight highly sensitive monostatic RF ports provide the exceptionally high RF sensitivity required to deliver the greatest accuracy and longer read ranges. The result is the highest throughput in this class - even in the densest RF environments with challenging materials, such as metal or liquids.
Most power in its class
With a best-in-class processor and expanded memory, the FX9600 offers the power needed to support very high traffic throughput and sophisticated software applications.
UNRIVALED DEPLOYMENT SIMPLICITY | Parse data at the edge with embedded applications
The FX9600 can host embedded applications, so data can be parsed directly on the reader. Since data is processed in real time at the network edge, the amount of data transmitted to your backend servers is substantially reduced, increasing network bandwidth and improving network performance. Latencies are reduced, improving application performance. And the integration of data into a wide variety of middleware applications is simplified, reducing deployment time and cost.
Easy, low-cost deployment with support for PoE and PoE+
Eliminate the time and cost required to run power drops to each reader with support for PoE (802.3af) or PoE+ (802.3at). And either PoE+ or a 24V power supply provide industry-best full output power, eliminating the loss of power due to long cable runs and connectors. You get maximum tag reads, maximum read ranges and the maximum RFID performance required to get coverage you need with fewer readers.
The Zebra FX9600 delivers exceptional RF sensitivity and longer read ranges, making it ideal for dense RF environments with metals, liquids, and other challenging materials. It supports PoE and PoE+ power delivery, eliminating the need for separate power drops to each reader, while its durable diecast aluminum housing with IP53 sealing ensures reliable uptime in demanding warehouse conditions. We offer the FX9600 as a complete solution that simplifies deployment and reduces operational complexity.
Yes, the FX9600 supports Wi-Fi and Bluetooth dongles, allowing you to connect directly to your Wi-Fi network and Bluetooth-enabled devices without requiring USB hubs or complex wiring. This flexibility makes it easy to integrate the reader into your existing network infrastructure. Contact us today to discuss wireless deployment options for your facility.
The FX9600 supports both PoE+ and 24V DC power supplies, giving you flexibility in how you deploy the reader throughout your facility. With industry-best full output power through either option, you won't need to compromise on performance even with longer cable runs. We can help you select the right power configuration for your specific installation needs.
The FX9600 features 4 input and 4 output GPIO ports, allowing you to integrate with external devices, sensors, and control systems for automated RFID workflows. This makes it suitable for complex logistics and inventory management applications that require real-time triggering and device control.
Yes, the FX9600 can host embedded applications directly, which simplifies deployment, reduces costs and complexity, and increases network bandwidth efficiency. This capability allows you to run custom logic and processing at the edge, minimizing data transfer and enabling faster decision-making in your RFID operations.
The FX9600 operates on 900 MHz frequencies and includes Japan license station support, making it suitable for deployment in multiple geographic regions. The model available from us is configured for US operations with full compliance for North American RFID deployments. Visit barcodesinc.com to confirm frequency specifications for your region.
