"IF5 Fixed RFID Reader (IF5UC: T6, No Camera, No Radio, No M and 915 FCC)"

"Joining an already diversified line of RFID readers, the Intermec Intellitag IF5 fixed reader delivers unmatched capability at the tag scan site. Considered a smart reader, custom applications running on the IF5 enable it to filter information from tags, as well as monitor external sensors and control audible and visual indicators, without the expense, and potential additional point of failure, of a separate server box required by other RFID scanning solutions. As with all Intellitag reader products, the IF5 both reads and writes to RFID tags. Beginning in 2003, Intermec and IBM worked with a common goal of creating an RFID reader capable of filtering incoming tag data and sending only pertinent information upstream to the application server. The resulting IF5 smart reader is based on a Linux platform, and runs IBM's WebSphere Everyplace Micro Environment (WEME). This eliminates the need and added cost of an additional industrial PC for data filtering or processing at the point of collection. In large scale enterprises, eliminating the need for a server for every RFID reader, not only reduces cost, but also lowers the number of potential failure points in the network."
