UHF RFID Silicone Wristband ID-UHF-WB860 (Long Range, Adjustable)

Long range UHF RFID wristband for hands-free reads

The ID-UHF-WB860 is the band to pick when people should be identified without stopping to tap. With a typical read range of 1–5 m, depending on the reader and antenna, it is read as the wearer walks through a turnstile, crosses a finish line or enters a plant gate.

Where it fits

• Sports and marathon timing: a wrist-worn timing credential for runs and multi-sport events
• Workforce: attendance at gates and personnel tracking in factories and warehouses
• Hospitals: patient management on wards equipped with UHF readers
• Visitors and events: visitor and asset management, outdoor festivals and concerts

Made for daily and outdoor wear

The silicone body is fully sealed to IP68 and resists sweat, UV and repeated use, so it holds up on shift workers and at outdoor events. The adjustable strap gives one size for adult wrists; fit it snugly so the band does not rotate during a run or a shift.

Setting up the read zone

Record each band's EPC on a UHF desktop reader before issue and link it to a participant, employee or patient record. Size the read zone around a doorway, lane or turnstile rather than an open space, and test with bands worn on the wrist, since the body shortens UHF read distance. Timing projects are covered in our race timing guide; for shorter-range or HF bands, see all silicone RFID wristbands.
