Product Descriptions
AdvanMux-8 is a high performance 8 port multiplexer that expands by a factor 8 the number of antennas that can be connected to each port of an RFID reader.
AdvanMux-8 is compatible with most RFID reader models in the market, including Keonn, Impinj, Zebra, Alien, ThingMagic and others.
AdvanMux-8 is connected to the I/O port of most reader models, and it is controlled by sending simple commands to the reader. This facilitates the control of AdvanMux-8 and its synchronization with the reader. Any port of AdvanMux-8 can be selected at any time.
AdvanMux-8 can be directly connected to AdvanReader-100 and AdvanReader-150 through a conventional Ethernet cable.
For other reader models, a reader-specific cable adapter or the AdvanGPIO connection board can be ordered that connect the digital I/O port of the reader to one of the two RJ45 control ports of AdvanMux-8 multiplexer. The following picture shows the cable adapter for a specific reader model and the AdvanGPIO connection board.
