Dutch vehicle identification and detection specialist 3838 Nedap is taking advantage of IFSEC 2015 to launch its Transit Ultimate microwave RFID long-range reader, developed for vehicular access control in high-security applications and under heavy environmental conditions.

Apart from an improved industrial antenna and housing design, the new reader contains a second communication channel at 433 MHz that enables a wider bandwidth for communication between readers and tags. Tag authentication using AES encryption is incorporated to help prevent cloning of tags and replay-attacks.

Transit identifies vehicles and drivers at a distance of up to 10 metres (33 ft) and a travelling speed of up to 200 km/h (125 mph) by using semi-active (2.45 GHz) RFID technology.

Transit Ultimate offers many new and improved features including: advanced antenna design; semi-active RFID technology based on two frequencies (2,45 GHz and 433 MHz); integrated squelch upgrade board for read range adjustment; configurable three-colour LED indication; USB Interface for communication with reader; tamper switch detects changes by unauthorised users; and bonnet support strut for easy installation.

More information is available in the Transit Ultimate product video.
