TSL – 3166 Bluetooth® Rugged UHF RFID Reader

The TSL 3166 is a next-generation rugged UHF RFID reader designed for industries that demand high throughput, reliability, and durability. Powered by the Impinj E710 engine, it achieves up to 1200 tags per second, with in-reader de-duplication to prevent host overload. A high-capacity, hot-swappable battery ensures continuous all-day use, while its IP67 and MIL-STD-810F certification make it highly resistant to water, dust, and impact.

With ePop-Loq® connectivity for simultaneous charging and data transfer, optional 2D barcode scanning, and onboard batch storage of up to 500 million EPCs, the 3166 excels in supply chain, warehousing, logistics, field services, and industrial environments where performance and toughness are paramount
