M/A-COM is a manufacturer of Thing magic developed UHF range of RFID reader Thing Magic is a leading developer of radio frequency identification range of products.

RFID Reader: Thing magic’s Mercury 4 Agile reader, it can be communicated with RS-232 serial interface or Ethernet 10/100 Base-T or USB. It operates from 230volts AC power. Operating frequency range is 902 -928 MHz. and 865 -868 MHz. Air interface protocol compatible with EPC Class 1, Generation 1 and Generation 2,ISO 18000-6B/Unicode 1.19. Antenna configuration 1 and 4 antennas separate for transmit and receive, 4W EIRP. Meet FCC part 15, UL 60950,CAN/CSA C22.2 No.60950, Canada RSS 210 ETSI EN 302 208-1 regulatory standards. Support TCP/IP, H TTP and NTP network protocol. Connection protocol is Thing Magic’s Reader query Language (RQL).

Antenna: Antennas are the key to RFID success. Antenna perform three things, it delivery power to Tag, it transmits data and receive signal. It is front end of your RFID deployment, and may need to survive in extreme, real world conditions that includes dust, shock, vibration and very high and low temperatures. The Thing magic Mercury 4 antennas are designed based on all above factor in mind. It uses separate transmit and receive elements to power tags at great distance in any orientation; is tuned and focused to send clean data and receive even weak signal; and is tough enough to withstand hostile deployment conditions. It is made of Aluminum and polycarbonate, with dual polarization and with connectors.
