R1
Compact dual-frequency UHF and HF reader/writer
Overview
A palm-sized desktop reader that handles both UHF and 13.56 MHz HF, so one unit covers Gen2 product tags and ISO 14443/15693 cards. At 15 cm read range it is deliberately close-coupled, which suits encoding desks and access points where precision matters more than distance.
