Savi ST-675 Container Security Tag Description The Savi ST-675 tag is an active RFID container security tag with intrusion and environmental sensors. The ST-675’s sensor arm detects the open/closed state of the shipping container door, and the intrusion light sensor monitors the amount of light entering the container. These intrusion sensors detect potential theft or tampering. The temperature, humidity, and shock sensors monitor environmental conditions to prevent spoilage or damage to goods.
