Impinj Gen2X is an advanced, standards-compatible enhancement to the RAIN RFID (GS1 UHF Gen2) standard that improves tag read range, increases inventory speed, boosts security, and lowers overall solution costs. Developed by Impinj, it is designed for challenging environments in retail, logistics, and manufacturing, allowing for faster, more accurate, and secure tracking of items. Gen2X is built into tags using the Impinj M800 series endpoint ICs and supported by a wide range.
Main Features and benefits of Gen2X RFID include:
Improved Performance: Offers extended tag read ranges and faster inventory counting, reducing labour costs.
Enhanced Reliability: Better readability for small, embedded, or hard-to-read items (e.g., in cosmetics, food) and improved resistance to electromagnetic interference.
Increased Security: Features like Impinj Endpoint IC Verification help detect counterfeits, and "Protected Mode" enhances consumer privacy by hiding tags until authorised.
Operational Efficiency: Minimises stray reads at retail self-checkouts and improves accuracy at dock doors, preventing mis-shipments.
Compatibility: Fully backward compatible with existing GS1 UHF Gen2 and ISO/IEC 18000-63 standards.
