At the core of the UHF RFID desktop reader is an Impinj E-Series chipset with support for the latest Gen2X protocol. This advanced RFID technology delivers excellent receiver sensitivity and outstanding anti-collision performance, enabling fast and stable tag reading even in dense tag environments. The Chainway R3S supports efficient batch reading of multiple RFID tags in a single session, significantly improving throughput in checkout, inventory, and asset-tracking processes. Adjustable RF output power allows precise control of the read range, helping to reduce stray reads and misreads. This makes the R3S an ideal UHF RFID tabletop reader for scenarios where accuracy and repeatability are essential.

The Chainway R3S also stands out as a versatile USB RFID reader with multiple interface options for seamless system integration. USB Type-C provides true plug-and-play connectivity without the need for an external power supply, while Ethernet with PoE+ support enables stable, fixed installations. Bluetooth Low Energy further extends flexibility by allowing wireless communication with host devices. Full compatibility with Windows, Android, and iOS platforms ensures that the UHF RFID desktop reader can be easily integrated into existing IT infrastructures. Available SDKs support rapid application development and help reduce integration time and cost. Visual LED indicators and an integrated buzzer provide immediate user feedback during read and write operations, increasing operational transparency and minimizing handling errors.
