HyperX Long Range Readers
Hyper X™ is a long range hands-free reader. It uses semi-passive read-only tags that utilise the power from the antenna for data communications and provides fast and reliable identification.
Hyper X can be combined with a simple stand-alone controller such as the CRC100 or CRC200 to open a door or barrier for authorised users or can form part of an integrated access management system, where the data from the tag can be processed to monitor movement etc.
Hyper X has a distinct advantage over standard proximity or magnetic stripe technologies in that it is hands-free. The user does not need to stop to present the tag to the reader. This enables faster processing, avoiding queues and congestion.
The technology operates at 2.45 GHz reducing the likelyhood of interference from other RF sources. It is relatively insensitive to the environment.
Readers
Nortech offers a choice of readers to suit different applications and environments. The type of reader chosen will depend upon the defined identification area and the reading distance required. Readers can be easily mounted on walls, posts, and barriers or may be included in a roadside pedestal. Vehicles can be detected passing through the detection zone, even at speed.
Tags
Tags can be provided as lightweight cards for personnel or vehicle identification. They can be detected when carried on a belt, in a pocket, in a car windscreen etc. (they can’t be detected through the human body or through metal).
The Hyper X tags contain a long-life battery to power the onboard electronics. The tags are semi-passive and the battery is not used for the generation of RF energy resulting in a longer life. The lifetimes of the tags are constant and independent of tag usage and are guaranteed to operate for a minimum of 5 years. The reading distance for all tags for any given reader is constant and independent of age.
Special heavy duty vehicle mount tags, suitable for harsh environments, are also available.
