Some Information on RAIN RFID Technology
RAIN RFID, or Radio Frequency Identification, is a wireless technology that uses radio waves to identify and track objects. Operating in the ultra-high frequency (UHF) range, RAIN RFID offers longer read ranges and faster data transfer compared to traditional RFID systems. Unlike active RFID tags, RAIN RFID tags are passive and do not need a power source, making them readable from a distance by RAIN RFID readers.
This technology enhances the performance of RFID sled readers like CAEN RFID’s fIDo, improving asset and inventory management.
