RFID

CHALLENGE
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) can fundamentally transform the way information on equipment is gathered and analysed. Effective monitoring and tracking of
equipment is essential:

  • To improve staff productivity by effective location and tracking of equipment;
  • Minimise theft through the application of motion detectors, and receive alerts in real time if equipment passes a defined physical location;
  • Reduce costs through improved utilisation of assets and avoiding unnecessary purchases.


FEATURES
Capita IT services has partnered with Airetrack for the delivery of feature-rich RFID solutions. Our offering comprises the following:

  • Passive RFID – Passive RFID tags emit a signal when they travel through the field of a scanning antenna, they do not require a battery and have a virtually unlimited life span;
  • Active RFID – Active RFID tags provide a consistent, robust and penetrating signal that can be tracked by a scanning antenna or in real time using WiFi network infrastructure. Active RFID tags require a battery, are larger in size and have a shorter life span.
