Times-7 A6590C Circularly Polarized Ground Antenna
The A6590C Circularly Polarized Ground Antenna is a high-performance RFID solution designed for applications involving dynamic movement of items, assets, and individuals. With its ultra-thin profile of just 8mm (0.3″), this antenna excels in scenarios where traditional side antennas may be impractical or less effective. The A6590C is specifically engineered to lie flat on the ground, occupying a doorway-sized footprint, making it ideal for monitoring conference attendees, tracking people in retail settings for presence awareness, or ensuring precise race timing. Its robust construction allows it to withstand moderate loads, including hand trolleys, carts, and even occasional vehicular traffic with pneumatic tires. The antenna’s Right Hand Circular Polarization (RHCP) ensures optimal read performance regardless of tag orientation. With an impressive far-field gain of 9dBiC and a strategic beamwidth pattern, the A6590C offers exceptional read range and coverage. Its IP65 rating makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor deployments, while its flame-retardant ABS radome adds an extra layer of durability and safety. Whether concealed under mats or integrated into flooring, the A6590C provides a discreet yet powerful RFID solution for a wide range of tracking and monitoring applications.
