The Bluebird RFR901 is a portable UHF RFID reader designed for applications in retail, logistics, healthcare and data centers. The model stands out with improved RFID performance compared to the previous RFR900 version, a lighter ergonomic design and extended compatibility with Bluebird mobile devices and commercial smartphones.

The device provides a reading rate of over 1300 tags per second and a reading distance of over 10 meters, making it suitable for high-volume operations. The removable 4900 mAh battery (optional 7000 mAh), with hot-swap function, allows continuous use, and Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity and universal mount facilitate integration into existing workflows.
The robust, IP54-certified construction makes it suitable for use in harsh environments.
The price does not include the mobile terminal.
