Times-7 A1130 

Near Field/Short Range UHF RFID Antenna

The A1130 True NearField™ is a RAIN RFID antenna engineered for “near zone only” applications, delivering highly precise on-surface reads in challenging environments with metal, liquids, and dense materials.

Key features

  • True NearField™ design that focuses energy exclusively in the near zone, ensuring accurate item-level reads with minimal interference and no dead zones.
  • Optimized for RAIN RFID in the 902–928 MHz (FCC) and 865–868 MHz (ETSI) bands, making it suitable for global deployments in retail, office, and industrial environments.
  • Near-field operation with a far-field equivalent gain of -11.5 dBi, ideal for tag reading directly on or very close to the antenna surface.

Mechanical and electrical data

  • Frequency ranges: 902–928 MHz (FCC) and 865–868 MHz (ETSI). Connector type: SMA.
  • Dimensions: 300 × 300 × 8.6 mm (flat radome) or 304 × 304 × 8.6 mm (formed radome), providing a generous 300 × 300 mm active read area.
  • Environmental rating IP54, suitable for indoor use where dust and light moisture protection are required.

Design and installation

  • Available in black or white, with a choice of flat or formed radome to match different aesthetic and mechanical requirements.
  • Integrated rear-side mounting holes and optional self-adhesive rubber feet enable flexible, low-profile mounting on shelves, workbenches, and conveyors.
  • Supported by detailed mechanical drawings, STEP files, and a dedicated mounting guide for fast and reliable integration into OEM systems and fixtures.

Typical applications

Office and retail environments using RAIN RFID for asset management, document tracking, and product identification directly on the antenna surface.

Shelving and conveyor item-level tracking where a controlled, surface-confined read zone is essential to prevent stray reads from adjacent items.

POS, kiosks, and smart cabinets requiring precise tag detection in tight spaces with metal frames or nearby liquids.
