ThingMagic M7e-Petite UHF RFID Reader/Writer Module
The ThingMagic M7e-Petite UHF RFID Reader/Writer Module is the smallest embedded UHF RAIN RFID module in the Mercury series, featuring scalable RF power. Its low power consumption makes it ideal for battery-powered, small, portable device use cases. The ThingMagic Petite offers a wide RF output range (0dBm to +27dBm), meeting the read/write requirements of RFID tablets, RFID printers, and RFID tag testing stations.
ThingMagic Petite is available in a surface mount package designed to increase the efficiency of surface mount technology manufacturing while reducing the overall cost of embedding RFID in volume applications. This package is also ideal for handheld devices, printers, consumable authentication, device configuration and access control.
ThingMagic Petite is powered by the ThingMagic Mercury API.
