Product Information

Product Overview

The 4-Port UHF RFID Reader Module U8 is a high-performance embedded reader designed for warehouse automation, production line tracking, vehicle access, smart cabinets, asset management, RFID portals and other fixed RFID applications requiring multiple external antennas. The module provides four 50 Ω SMA antenna ports and supports EPC Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C and GB/T 29768-2013 for reliable multi-tag identification.

RF output power is software adjustable from 6-32 dBm. Under suitable tag, antenna and environmental conditions, read distance can reach up to approximately 10 m, while write distance is typically up to approximately 10 cm. The reader supports anti-collision processing, RSSI reporting, a peak inventory speed of up to 500 tags per second, a 700-tag buffer at 96-bit EPC and receiver sensitivity down to -70 dBm. RF output accuracy is specified at 1 dB with output flatness of ±0.5 dB.

The module operates from a 5V DC supply and uses USB virtual serial as the standard host interface, with RS232, HID and TCP/IP configurations available according to project requirements. SDK resources include dynamic libraries, example code, demo software, user manuals and development documentation for host-system integration and secondary development. Communication interfaces, RF parameters, antenna configuration, firmware and project-specific integration can also be adapted for OEM applications.

Selection Guide

Quick Selection Guide

A practical summary to help match this reader to the right application and installation conditions.

Best For

Warehouse automation, production line tracking, vehicle access, smart cabinets, asset management, RFID portals and OEM systems requiring multiple external antennas and high-speed UHF tag inventory.

Choose This When

Choose this module when your project requires a compact 4-port UHF RFID reader with adjustable RF output up to 32 dBm, multi-tag inventory up to 500 tags/s and external SMA antennas for fixed or embedded installations.

Not Ideal For

Not intended for compact short-range card identification, handheld inventory or applications that require only a single low-power RFID antenna point.

Read Range & Installation

Read distance can reach up to approximately 10 m under suitable conditions and depends on tag sensitivity, antenna gain, RF output setting, antenna placement and the surrounding environment. Write distance is typically up to approximately 10 cm.

Compatibility

Supports EPC Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C and GB/T 29768-2013 UHF RFID. FCC 902-928 MHz and GB 920-925 MHz configurations are supported. Standard host communication uses USB virtual serial, with RS232, HID and TCP/IP options available according to project requirements.
