Times-7 A1130 Near Field/Short Range UHF RFID Antenna

Times-7 A1130 Near Field/Short Range UHF RFID Antenna

The A1130 antenna is part of the new True NearField Antenna Series, offering a 300 mm square surface with the familiar Times-7 slim profile of just 8.6 mm. 

Times-7 True NearField antennas are explicitly designed for applications that require “near zone only” tag detection or involve metals, liquids, or any other challenging materials. With hardly any far-field components and no surface dead spots, the Times-7 True NearField antennas provide reliable tag reads within a very constricted read zone. 

Thanks to our unique antenna design, which scales easily in size, the True NearField antenna series offers three dimensions. If you require a larger surface, please go to the A1163 (300 x 600 mm), or for a more compact size, go to A1115 (150 x 150 mm).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Times-7 A1130 antenna used for?

The A1130 is a True Near-Field UHF RFID antenna designed for short-range applications like tag commissioning, pharmaceutical packaging, and smart shelves and offers optimal performance in environments where challenging materials like liquid and metal are present.

What is the read range of the A1130 antenna?

It is designed for very close proximity reads, with virtually no far-field radiation, ensuring reliable detection only within the near-field zone.

Can the A1130 antenna read tags near metal or liquid?

Yes, it performs exceptionally well around metal and liquid materials, making it ideal for applications in challenging RF environments.

Is the A1130 easy to mount or install?

Yes, it includes integrated mounting holes and comes with optional rubber feet for flat-surface or embedded installations.

What is the maximum input power it supports?

The A1130 antenna supports up to 3 watts of input power, suitable for most near-field RFID systems.

What frequency range does it operate in?

It operates within 865–867 MHz, making it compliant with ETSI UHF RFID regulations.

What is unique about the True Near-Field technology?

Times-7’s True Near-Field antennas have no surface dead spots and are designed for controlled zone detection, unlike traditional far-field antennas that pick up signals from a distance.
