RFID OSD27 Qstar

The ID-D27 is a high-performance UHF RFID inlay engineered for inventory management, asset tracking, and supply chain visibility applications. Built on the Qstar chip platform, it delivers reliable read ranges of up to 7 m in demanding real-world environments.

Key Features:

• Compact form factor
• Qstar 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-D27 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 OSD27 Qstar

Most compact inlays trade away distance to keep their size down. The RFID OSD27 Qstar (model ID-D27) does not: built on the Qstar chip platform at Identium's Indian plant, this UHF RFID Qstar tag holds read ranges of up to 7 m depending on antenna and environment while staying small enough for item-level tagging and tracking. That combination suits places where goods are counted from a doorway or swept with a handheld from the aisle instead of being presented to a scanner one by one. The flexible thin substrate handles flat and curved surface application, construction is RoHS-compliant for high-volume industrial deployment, and it answers to any EPC Gen2 / ISO 18000-6C reader or printer.

Key specifications

Best-fit applications

• Sports and event equipment issued and returned across a rental counter
• School, college and corporate libraries that want a small tag with more reach
• Spare-parts bins in two-wheeler and car dealership stores
• Consumer electronics accessories displayed on open retail shelving
• Promotional kits and dealer giveaways followed through a distribution network
• Toolroom items booked out to technicians and reconciled at shift end

Mounting, encoding and reading notes

Bond the whole antenna area of the ID-D27 to the item, its packaging or a hang tag. Extra reach cuts both ways, so before going live, walk the aisle and check whether the reader is picking up stock on the next shelf; trimming transmit power or angling the antenna downwards usually defines the zone cleanly. Encode each tag on a UHF printer or desktop reader and keep the encoding log, because that record is what lets you trace a returned item later. Never lay the inlay flat on metal or over a liquid-filled body without a foam spacer, and re-measure range afterwards.

Why buy from Identium

Because this Qstar inlay is built here rather than sourced abroad, the antenna can be matched to 865-868 MHz sites in India while the same part still ships to distributors running ETSI 865-868 MHz readers. Identium has manufactured RFID since 2010. Talk to us about OEM runs, custom encoding and trial quantities. See the broader RFID tags catalogue, and if a tag ever goes quiet on site, the RFID tags not reading troubleshooting guide lists the usual culprits.

What is the read range of the Qstar based ID-D27 tag?

The ID-D27 UHF RFID inlay reads at up to 7 metres, as the Qstar chip platform is tuned for long range performance and fast inventory cycles. Actual range in an Indian warehouse depends on the reader antenna, output power and what the tag is applied to.
