ENODE INSTALLATION
The Mojix eNodes (exciter Node) are the building blocks of the Mojix STAR system, defining multiple
RFID coverage areas and interrogation zones configured to support each unique business process. Mojix
provides a full range of eNode models from wired to wireless, certified in multiple regions and across
multiple frequency bands.
The Mojix eNodes are reliable, autonomously operated simple RF transmitters, designed to excite all
types of EPC UHF Gen 2 RFID tags within their designated RFID coverage areas. The eNode connects
to four RFID antennas that are controlled by the STAR to energize RFID tags. The network of eNodes is
connected through a distributed architecture to a STAR unit via an eMux using coaxial cable. Each eNode
can service up to either four connected antennas or four eXpander modules with up to sixteen antennas,
using low-loss cables up to a distance of 50 feet.
eNode Specifications
Figure 9 shows the eNode and its interfaces, and Table 1 details the specifications of its interface
