Maximum read/write range
T
he maximum read/write ranges are only reached when the antenna is mounted on a
m
etallic surface with a minimum size of 150 x 150 mm.
Note
A
Antenna gain depends on the mounting surface
N
ote that the antenna gain depends on the material of the mounting surface. If the antenna
is
mounted on a metallic surface, the antenna gain is -5 dBi. If the antenna is mounted on a
n
on-metallic surface, the antenna gain is -13 dBi.
