Times-7 – A6011 SlimLine CP Underbelt RAIN RFID Antenna
The Times-7 A6011 SlimLine CP is a flat panel array RAIN RFID underbelt antenna encased in a UHMWPE (Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) radome, designed for continuous 24/7 operation in airport baggage handling systems and conveyor belt-based UHF RFID applications where downtime is not an option. At just 12 mm / 0.5 in. thick, it installs directly onto the conveyor frame beneath the belt without raising the belt height or requiring structural modification, and is available in three widths — 800 mm, 1000 mm, and 1200 mm — to match a range of conveyor belt widths. Operating across both ETSI 864–868 MHz and FCC 902–928 MHz bands, it delivers a read zone of up to 900 mm above the belt and up to 1200 mm across the belt (1200 mm variant), with right hand circular polarisation and up to 11 dBic far-field gain ensuring reliable tag orientation independence as baggage passes over the antenna.
The A6011 connects via an SMA female side fly lead (300 mm / 11.8 in.) and accepts SMA-to-RPTNC cable accessories in lengths of 2 m, 4 m, 6 m, and 8 m. Anti-static protection is provided through an earthing cable and DC ground. The SMA connector must be finger-tightened only; use of tools will damage the connector. When combined with the Times-7 A6020 Conveyor Portal Antenna, the A6011 delivers a complete airport portal solution with industry-leading baggage tag read accuracy. The A6011 is built in New Zealand, RoHS compliant, and CE certified.

Benefits
At just 12 mm thick, the A6011 mounts directly to the conveyor frame beneath the existing belt without raising belt height, modifying the conveyor structure, or interrupting ongoing baggage handling operations during installation.
Right hand circular polarisation with up to 11 dBic gain and a 900 mm read zone above the belt reads baggage tags reliably regardless of bag size, position, or tag orientation as items move across the belt at operational speed, reducing missed reads at the point of identification.
With 800 mm, 1000 mm, and 1200 mm length options sharing identical electrical specifications, the A6011 fits narrow sortation belts, standard check-in conveyors, and wide transfer belts from a single product family without requiring custom antenna engineering.
