This time, the focus will be on the new fourth generation of the KATHREIN reader family. This has two device variants: a <strong>ARU<\/strong> (Antenna Reader Unit with integrated antenna and 3 outputs for external antennas) and a <strong>RRU<\/strong> (Reader unit with 4 outputs for external antennas).<\/p>\n<p>The ARU Gen4 readers are equipped with an integrated <strong>adaptive antenna<\/strong> which ensures optimum performance under a wide range of conditions. The antenna has three scalable beams and can digitally and precisely change the width and length of the reading areas in front of the ARU Gen4. Thanks to this technology, data can be reliably captured even in complex environments.<\/p>\n<p>Another highlight is the integrated <strong>GNSS localization function<\/strong> in the variants with <strong>WLAN<\/strong>- and <strong>5G<\/strong>-connectivity. It enables precise location determination in real time and extends the reader's range of applications: on the one hand, the position of the fixed readers can be queried and checked; on the other hand, mobile readers attached to forklift trucks can report the coordinates of RFID-tagged pallet cages or pallets during transportation in outdoor areas.<\/p>\n<p>With a <strong>10 times higher sensitivity<\/strong> Compared to previous models, the Gen4 readers also offer high performance. Data is captured accurately even under the most difficult conditions such as metallic environments. The processing speed of <strong>1100 tags per second<\/strong> ensures maximum efficiency. Whether for inventory management, product traceability in the supply chain, monitoring the cold chain or automated processes - the new reader guarantees maximum productivity. In addition to the increase in performance, energy efficiency has also been significantly improved.<\/p>\n<p>One around <strong>40% reduced power consumption<\/strong> and a <strong>50% smaller footprint<\/strong> not only reduce operating costs, but also make the Reader Generation 4 an environmentally friendly choice.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8031 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kathrein-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Uebersicht-RRU_web-1024x710.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"710\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kathrein-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Uebersicht-RRU_web-1024x710.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kathrein-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Uebersicht-RRU_web-300x208.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kathrein-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Uebersicht-RRU_web-768x532.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kathrein-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Uebersicht-RRU_web-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.kathrein-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Uebersicht-RRU_web-600x416.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.kathrein-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Uebersicht-RRU_web.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>EDGE Line antennas - slim design, simple installation<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In addition to the new readers, the EDGE Line antennas will also be the focus of the KATHREIN trade fair stand. The latest antenna family from KATHREIN Solutions revolutionizes the use of UHF RFID antennas for IoT applications. The EDGE Line antennas impress with their outstanding parameters and reduced dimensions. Striking is the <strong>low thickness<\/strong> of the antennas of only 6 mm. This is achieved by completely dispensing with a housing. Nevertheless, the <strong>Protection against moisture and environmental influences<\/strong> given.
