EZ series
Industrial fixed readers: pick by speed and sensitivity
Four TNC ports, PoE, Wi-Fi and BLE in one 115 × 120 × 33 mm body, built for read points that never stop. The EZ500 reads up to 700 tags/s; the EZ700 goes to 1,100 tags/s with more output power and better sensitivity.
Choose your model
You need the fastest fixed reader: heavy conveyor traffic, packed pallets or a crowded radio environment. Up to 1,100 tags/s and +33 dBm, with four TNC ports.
Details →You read at a busy industrial spot, such as a conveyor or a forklift, with many tags close together. Four TNC ports, dense-reader mode and up to 700 tags/s.

Questions we hear
How does it differ from the EZ500?
Same body, ports and features. The EZ700 adds +33 dBm (EZ500: +31.5), -86 dBm sensitivity (EZ500: -82) and up to 1,100 tags/s (EZ500: 700).
What do I need to run it?
PoE or a 9 to 28 V DC supply, up to four antennas with RF cables, and a network or USB link. It draws 15 W at +33 dBm. Identix does not supply tags.
