Buying guide
What 2.4 GHz active RFID does
Active RFID tags carry their own battery and transmit on their own, so a reader picks them up from tens or hundreds of metres away. Passive UHF tags, by comparison, are read at a few metres. That makes active RFID the choice for tracking vehicles in a yard, people across a large site, or valuable assets spread through big buildings. The tags, card and readers here work in the 2.4 GHz band.
Products in this range
Rugged tag AT507
The AT507 is a grey ABS tag rated up to 400 m in open air, depending on reader and antenna. Average current is under 15 µA. Listed uses include e-bike and motorcycle tracking, tunnel and mine worker monitoring, IT assets and construction material.
Asset tag AT508
The AT508 is a small tag for IT assets, instruments and valuables, read up to 80 m with range adjustable in software. A light sensor sends an alarm if the tag is removed from the object.
Card T505
The T505 is a white, printable 22 g card for staff and visitor ID, read up to 150 m. More than 200 cards can be read per second, which helps at busy entrances.
Active RFID readers and tags: range and price
Read ranges are as listed in each product's specs and depend on the reader, antenna and site. Prices are per tag, card or reader, before 18% GST. Tags and cards have a minimum order of 100 pcs; readers are sold from 1 unit. For yards and roads, start with the outdoor active RFID reader F529, which reads up to 400 m and shows which of four directions a tag is in.

How to choose
- Active or passive. If assets pass a fixed point within a few metres, such as a dock door or vehicle gate, passive UHF RFID tags with a gate reader need no battery. Choose active when you need wide-area coverage or long range.
- Zone or area. A short-range reader such as the F530 tells you a tag passed a doorway or boarded a bus. A long-range reader such as the F529 covers open yards and roads, and its four antennas show the direction a tag is in.
- Range settings. Tag ranges are software configurable, so you can cut range to avoid reading tags in a neighbouring zone.
- Connectivity. The F530 is a wireless GPRS base station. The F529 supports TCP/IP and GPRS for set-up and remote upgrades, plus Bluetooth for configuration. Plan how readings will reach your server before fixing reader positions.
- Battery. Tags are battery-powered, and battery life depends on how often a tag transmits. Ask for the expected life at your settings when you request a quote.
Planning a system
Tags and readers must run the same air protocol, so order them together as one system. Share your site layout, the number of tags and the entry points to cover, so the reader count and placement can be planned. Readers report tag IDs; to show locations, attendance or alerts you also need software, covered in our guide to RFID software and middleware.
