The MC9060-G RFID from Symbol Technologies is a ruggedized
mobile computer that features integrated support for the most
popular radio frequency identification standard - EPC™, the
Electronic Product Code. By integrating support for either EPC
Class 1 or Class 0 RFID reading and programming with a robust
commercial mobile computer, the MC9060-G RFID is able to offer an
unparalleled level of functionality suitable for a broad range of
RFID applications. Combining RFID, bar code reading, imaging,
802.11 connectivity, a full 1/4 VGA screen and alphanumeric keypad,
the MC9060-G RFID with RFID has the flexibility to give your
organization real-time access to mission-critical information from
key points in your supply chain. Enterprise-wide management and
control of the MC9060-G RFID is easy with Symbol's Mobility
Services Platform (MSP).
Many of the world's largest retailers, manufacturers and
logistics organizations are integrating RFID as part of their
supply chain processes, and RFID is rapidly emerging as a key
technology across a wide range of markets and applications. With a
feature set that delivers superior data collection, communication
and collaboration, the MC9060-G RFID with RFID facilitates faster
decision-making and increased productivity in a variety of
environments - from the factory to the warehouse to the sales
floor.
Mobile Solutions Add Value to RFID
Traditional supply chain applications of RFID rely on automatic
reading of tagged items using fixed readers installed at dock
doors, mechanized conveyors, depalletization stations and other
"choke" points in the movement of goods. However, when integrated
with a mobile solution, RFID technology expands and improves the
general functionality and performance of your entire mobile
application.
