Impinj Introduces Enterprise-grade RAIN RFID Reader for Next-gen IoT Solutions
New Impinj R700 reader delivers industry-leading performance, deployment simplicity, and enterprise-grade reliability
Seattle, WA February 4, 2020 - Impinj®, Inc. (NASDAQ: PI), a leading provider and pioneer of RAIN RFID solutions, today introduced the Impinj R700 reader. Designed for enterprise-grade RAIN deployments, the Impinj R700 reader delivers industry-leading performance with the best receive sensitivity, fastest network connectivity, and powerful edge processing for next-generation IoT solutions.
“Leading enterprises are connecting every thing to the IoT,” said Impinj CEO Chris Diorio. “We designed the Impinj R700 to meet the needs of those IoT deployments today and tomorrow. With industry-leading receive sensitivity, the Impinj R700 can read ever-smaller, global RAIN tags at the highest speeds. It also builds on Impinj’s long history delivering readers with enterprise-grade reliability, maximizing solution up-time, and protecting enterprise investments.”
Industry-leading performance
The Impinj R700 reader builds on the heritage of the Impinj Speedway® reader family, enabling developers to quickly and easily build and deploy IoT solutions. Impinj R700 features include the following:
- –92 dBm receive sensitivity enables reading smaller, global RAIN RFID tags at high speed for demanding use cases such as RAIN-based loss prevention.
- 1 GHz dual-core processor, 1 GB RAM, and Gigabit Ethernet allow developers to deploy sophisticated on-reader tag-processing algorithms that leverage low-latency connectivity to enterprise IoT applications.
- Support for up to 32 antennas with one-wire antenna connectivity facilitates large-scale system deployments.
- Integrated, standardized connectors provide rich support for external peripherals.
- Secure, upgradable Linux operating system, encrypted software image, and a secure software boot with chain-of-trust prevents unauthorized software execution and addresses the demanding security needs of enterprise customers.
“Our supply-chain customers require the enterprise-grade performance and reliability delivered by the Impinj R700 reader integrated in the SLS D-Series™ dock door solution,” said Jeff Hudson, president of Smart Label Solutions, a process engineering and RFID solutions company focused on automating and optimizing supply chains. “The new Impinj R700 reader allows us to deliver superior performance by improving read accuracy and enabling us to read more tags, faster.”
The introduction of the Impinj R700 reader follows Impinj’s recent introduction of the Impinj M700 endpoint IC family. Both are key elements of the Impinj platform, which comprises RAIN endpoints ICs, connectivity and software. Organizations around the world use the Impinj platform to connect items to applications, replacing assumptions about those items with direct observations, thereby gaining the confidence to take action to improve their operations.
