HID® TSL® 3166 Bluetooth® Wireless Technology UHF Terminal

TSL, part of HID, designs, develops and manufactures enterprise mobile device peripherals for automatic identification and data capture (AIDC). TSL is an industry leader in mobile RFID innovation, offering an extensive portfolio of handheld UHF RFID readers, beneficial for every sector.

The new 3166 Bluetooth® wireless technology, rugged RAIN® RFID UHF reader boasts TSL’s latest hardware innovations and performance improvements, in a more efficient reader with a longer battery life.

Using the latest generation of Impinj silicon, read rates have been boosted up to 1200 tags per second. Multiple tag operations per tag are possible during an inventory scan — including reading multiple areas of each tag or writing to or even locking the tag. On-reader de-duplication for one million transponders prevents overwhelming the connected host with information. Support has been added for passive sensor transponders (temperature, strain, humidity, acceleration) from HID and others — TSL can provide a sample code demonstrating how to utilize these sensor transponders.

The increased efficiency of the new internal hardware gives longer operating time and allows for more tags read in a single charge — up to a 34% increase in battery life compared to the previous generation 2166 reader.

Designed to read and write to EPC Class 1 Gen 2 and EPC Class 1 Gen 2V2 tags, the 3166 can also be configured with class-leading, high-performance 2D data scanning to bring unparalleled data collection capabilities to any host it is connected to.
