The Identium ID-ANT-8CP is a standard 8 dBi circularly polarised UHF RFID antenna — the most widely deployed gain class for industrial RFID systems in India. The 300 × 300 mm panel provides a read range of 6–10 metres in warehouse conditions, making it the practical choice for dock-door portals, conveyor belt checkpoints, and manufacturing gate applications where reliable 6m+ tag reads are required but extreme long-range coverage is not needed.
Operating at 902–928 MHz with WPC-approved power levels, this antenna pairs directly with Identium 4-port and 8-port fixed readers to build multi-zone RFID infrastructure. The N-Female connector is compatible with LMR-400 and RG-8 low-loss coax cables for runs up to 20 metres without significant power loss.

Recommended Applications
- Distribution centre dock doors: Mount one antenna each side of a dock door; pallet-level tags on passing forklift loads read reliably at 6–8m without slowing operations.
- Conveyor belt checkpoints: Overhead mounting above conveyor lines — reads carton, tote, and pallet tags at 5–7m as items travel beneath.
- Cold store and freezer warehouse: IP65 housing handles temperature cycling in refrigerated warehouses; maintain full read performance at -20°C.
- Supply chain receiving: Supplier delivery verification portal — all tagged items in an inbound shipment read simultaneously as pallet passes through gate.
Enquire about dock-door portal kits including reader, antennas, and mounting hardware.
Frequently asked questions
What is the read range of the 8 dBi ID-ANT-8CP RFID antenna?
The ID-ANT-8CP 8 dBi UHF RFID antenna provides a 6 to 10 metre read range in warehouse conditions from a 300 x 300 mm circularly polarised panel. It is the most widely deployed gain class in Indian industrial RFID, used for dock-door portals, conveyor checkpoints and manufacturing gates.
Which readers and cables work with the ID-ANT-8CP antenna?
The ID-ANT-8CP pairs directly with Identium 4-port and 8-port fixed UHF readers to build multi-zone RFID infrastructure. Its N-Female connector accepts LMR-400 or RG-8 low-loss coaxial cable, allowing runs of up to 20 metres without significant power loss between the reader and the antenna.
Is this UHF RFID antenna suitable for Indian installations?
The ID-ANT-8CP is listed at 902-928 MHz and is deployed at WPC-approved power levels, while India's licence-free UHF RFID band is 865-867 MHz as notified by WPC. Confirm the band variant for your site when ordering so the antenna, the reader and Indian power limits all match.
What is the price of an 8 dBi UHF RFID antenna in India?
Pricing for the ID-ANT-8CP 8 dBi UHF RFID antenna depends on quantity and project scope, so check the listed price or request bulk pricing. India RFID Store is a BIS and WPC certified Indian manufacturer supplying antennas, readers and tags with pan-India shipping.
