Honeywell IH21 RFID reader overview

Today’s retailers are facing pressure like never before to keep better track of their inventory and ensure that their brick and mortar stores are always adequately stocked and replenished to meet increasingly sophisticated customer expectations, all with fewer employees and fewer resources. Therefore, many are looking to Honeywell’s mobile computing, scanning, and RFID technology to help streamline the process and increase efficiency and productivity. Introducing the Honeywell IH21 RFID reader, designed to provide fast, high-volume RFID tag reading performance for applications such as retail inventory counts, omni-channel order fulfillment, product receiving, shelf restocking, and pick lists. In addition, the IH21 UHF RFID reader has a unique, patented ePop-Loq snap-on connector integrated on the top surface, which enables a direct data and charge connection between the UHF reader and handheld mobile computer unit. As a result, users can quickly and easily connect compatible Honeywell mobile computers, such as the Dolphin 75e, Dolphin CT40, Dolphin CT50, Dolphin CT60, or ScanPal EDA50 series, to the IH21 unit. Moreover, the advanced antenna design allows the IH21 unit to read most common supply chain RFID tags in front of the antenna to eliminate poor reading results. Users simply point, aim, and press the trigger, enabling all items within range to be read nearly simultaneously and significantly reducing cycle count time, up to 20 times faster than using barcodes. Connection to the mobile computer can be done either via USB or Bluetooth with the ePop-Loq. Finally, once connected, the IH21 RFID reader and the mobile computer battery can be simultaneously charged in the docking station, ensuring the combined unit is always ready to go.
