ANTNF0
Strong, uniform near-field antenna for reads up to 1 m
A near-field antenna for precise short-range reads of up to 1 m. It has the stronger field of the two 200 x 200 mm models, 5 dBA/m at 6 mm, for small items and tags near liquids or metal.
You read small items, or tags near liquids or metal, at a counter, a pharmacy or a lab bench, up to 1 m. It has the stronger field of the two 200 x 200 mm near-field models.
Plain checkout where weight matters? The ANTNF1 weighs 300 g. Only the tag right in front should answer? The SNFA reads to 15 cm.
