UMD - Model 850 Series
IoT UHF RFID Reader / Controller


The UMD Model 850 Series (M850) is an intelligent IoT UHF RFID Reader with the ability to communicate over USB-C (HID keyboard output, or Virtual COM port output), Ethernet, or Wi-Fi.

It is based on the Zebra RE40 OEM UHF RFID Reader module which comes in two or four port versions. Maximum RFID transmit power is +27dBm (0.5W) and UMD’s MP3090 IoT Controller module providing the intelligence and I/O functionality.

The M850 can be configured using a web browser via its internal Wi-Fi Hotspot, or via the connected Ethernet/ Wi-Fi LAN network.

Applications crafted by UMD can be readily downloaded into the controller. (Remote update via the cloud is coming soon)

  • The M850A can run stand-alone
    • Provides RFID Tag data via the configured communications channel, like a barcode scanner
    • Built in communications to UMD’s Chariot Broker for sophisticated solutions such as UMD RACE and third parties
    • Custom applications
  • It can interface to your applications
    • Using the MQTT protocol
    • Other APIs by request

Features

  • Intelligent 2 port or 4 port UHF RFID Desktop Reader and Controller
  • Web based configured via Wi-Fi Hotspot or Ethernet
  • Firmware applications can be downloaded via growing library of “Firmware Apps”
  • Multi-Channel USB, Wi-Fi or Ethernet host interface
  • Integrates with UMD RFID Advance Controller for Embedded (RACE) Architecture
  • Custom API’s can be developed
