Why Choose the C5 UHF
UHF RFID Reading Technology
UHF RFID Reader includes the UHF RFID module which works using Impinj E Series chips. UHF RFID Reader is designed as per the standards of the Impinj Gen2X and EPCglobal Gen 2 (ISO18000-6C). This helps in detection of any object by UHF RFID Reader.. The C5 UHF RFID scanner can read up to 1,300 tags each second when that UHF RFID Reader uses polarization.
With the defined parameters, the C5 can cover distances of up to 30 meters when using Impinj MR6 tag, 32 meters with Impinj M750 tag, and 33 meters with Alien H3 anti-metal tag. The effective range and reading speed of the system depend on the tag used, environmental conditions, reader settings, and operating conditions. The performance enables users to collect massive amounts of data using RFID technology without tagging every object separately.
Integrated Data Capture
The C5 Android RFID reader merges RFID technology along with Android computing in a single handheld unit, thus avoiding the necessity of carrying multiple devices. Users will be able to utilize RFID technology for bulk identification and barcode scanning whenever necessary. The optional 2D scanning feature provides users with the ability to scan both 1D and 2D barcodes including popular QR Code, Data Matrix, PDF417, Code 128, Code 39, UPC, and EAN.
The optional NFC and PSAM features make the C5 RFID scanner a versatile device that can be used for various identification purposes on a single mobile platform.
Display and Ergonomic Operation
C5 also comes in two types – either a 5-inch fingerprint model with 1280 x 720 screen size or a 6-inch model with 2160 x 1080 screen size. The multi-touch panel of the device allows glove and wet finger operation and Corning Gorilla Glass protects the device during field operation.
This device has an integrated keypad with power button, two scan buttons, one user defined button and volume keys. Sound, LEDs and vibrations are included to give feedback during scan operations.
Long-Lasting Removable Battery
During long-term use, the C5 can be charged with the removable 7,000 mAh and 13,400 mAh pistol battery. The 100 mAh internal battery will help to ensure uninterrupted battery swap during prolonged stock counting, shift work, and logistics operations.
Rugged Enterprise Design
The C5 is made to work in tough situations. It is rated IP65 and can handle many drops of 1.5 meters into concrete within its operational temperature range. The C5 works well in temperatures from -20°C up to 50°C. It can be stored in temperatures low as -40°C and as high as 70°C. The C5 is also built to handle humidity levels between 5% and 95% RH.
It is also suitable for industries where dust and moisture’re common. The C5 is designed to stand up to environments where the C5 might face dust and moisture.
Connected Mobile Workflows
The Dual-Band Wireless Local Area Networks of 2.4 GHz & 5 GHz frequency bands and 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac protocols are compatible with the C5. The Bluetooth version 5.0 offers connectivity with peripheral devices, while GNSS gives the option of using GPS, AGPS, GLONASS, BeiDou & Galileo location protocols.
The USB Type-C and OTG connection interface are supported by the device. It is capable of supporting a Nano SIM card and Nano SIM or TF card, whereas PSAM slots are also optionally available.
