RFID specialist 177 TagMaster and access solutions specialist 2226 Skidata have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to cooperate in the field of supplying integrated long range UHF RFID solutions. This integration will support the Skidata Keytag to be read by TagMaster XT-readers designed for installations in parking. The result will be contactless “hands free” entry and exit for parking facilities and the new interface will also provide smooth and reliable integration between the RFID reader and the parking management system.

TagMaster reliable long range RFID readers are divided into the XT- series designed for the UHF frequency range and the well known LR-series working in the license free 2.45 GHz frequency band. Both product families use the same powerful Linux based future proof platform thus making the now implemented integration available in both product families with frequency hopping and an intuitive web configuration. The integration between TagMaster readers and the Skidata management equipment supports Skidata’s hands-free keymotion parking.
