5 Antennas
TAGSYS TR-L100 readers are optimized for use with TAGSYS antennas.
The antennas are factory-calibrated to an impedance of 50 Ohms that offers optimal performances
when the antenna is mounted on a desktop surface.
Due to their specific design, these antennas can be safely used in proximity to other TAGSYS
RFID products. They will also work, if properly installed, in metallic-type environments. In this case,
performance may be reduced.
It may be necessary to retune the antenna once installed if the environment is highly metallic or if
the antenna is installed underneath a table or desk (and depending on the material of which the
desk/table is manufactured).
