RFID 1642-M700 Tag

The ID-1642-M700 is a high-performance UHF RFID inlay engineered for inventory management, asset tracking, and supply chain visibility applications. Built on the M700 chip platform, it delivers reliable read ranges of up to 7 m in demanding real-world environments.

Key Features:

• Compact form factor
• M700 chip — optimised for long-range performance and fast inventory cycles
• Frequency: 860–960 MHz (global UHF RFID standard)
• Read range: up to 7 metres (depending on antenna and environment)
• Flexible, thin substrate suitable for flat and curved surface application
• RoHS-compliant materials; suitable for high-volume industrial deployment

The ID-1642-M700 is compatible with all standard UHF RFID readers and printers. Ideal for warehouse logistics, retail, manufacturing, and field asset management where high-throughput scanning and durability matter.

About the RFID 1642-M700 Tag

Inventory programmes that span many different product types need one label that behaves the same on all of them, and that is the brief the RFID 1642-M700 tag answers. Identium combines the 1642 antenna with the Impinj M700 chip on a flexible, thin substrate, so the ID-1642-M700 lies flat on cartons and hang tags or wraps around bottles, tubs and moulded packaging. It is manufactured in New Delhi from RoHS-compliant materials, tuned to India's 865-868 MHz WPC band, and reads identically on ETSI 865-868 MHz systems in export markets. Up to 7 m of read range depending on antenna and environment lets a single label serve shelf counts, backroom audits and dock-door portals.

Key specifications

Best-fit applications

• Mixed-category retail inventory spanning apparel, accessories and home goods
• Returns processing and re-shelving in e-commerce reverse logistics
• FMCG cartons riding conveyors at distribution and CFA hubs
• Baggage tags for airlines, coach operators and hotels
• Plastic work-in-progress bins on manufacturing shop floors

Mounting, encoding and reading notes

Stick the label to a clean, non-metal surface, steer clear of foil laminates and liquid contents, and add a spacer when neither can be avoided. If you are replacing an existing tag with this one, re-run your reader power and session settings against samples rather than assuming the old profile still fits. Write EPCs with a standard UHF RFID printer or desktop reader, lock the EPC memory if your process demands it, and publish a placement map so every site puts the label in the same spot on each carton type.

Frequently asked questions

What is the read range of the RFID 1642-M700 tag?

The RFID 1642-M700 tag reads up to 7 metres, depending on the reader antenna, output power and environment. Built on the M700 chip platform, it works across the 860-960 MHz UHF band, which covers India's 865-868 MHz licence-free RFID allocation.

What is the RFID 1642-M700 inlay used for?

The RFID 1642-M700 is a UHF RFID inlay used for inventory management, asset tracking and supply chain visibility. Its longer read distance suits dock door portals, pallet scanning and rapid cycle counts in warehouses, factories and distribution centres across India.

What is the price of the RFID 1642-M700 tag in India?

Pricing for the RFID 1642-M700 UHF tag depends on quantity, printing and encoding. Check the listed price on the India RFID Store page or request bulk pricing. Identium manufactures UHF RFID inlays in India and offers volume and OEM rates with pan-India delivery.

Will the RFID 1642-M700 label read on metal pallets or racks?

No. The RFID 1642-M700 is a standard flexible UHF label and does not read reliably when fixed directly onto metal or over liquid, which is true of all paper and film label tags. Metal racks and pallets need an on-metal UHF tag, also made by India RFID Store.
