The WJR7080 is fully compliant to the European regulation ETSI 300 220 (869.525 MHz) and supports multi-protocol (ISO18000-6C and ISO18000-6B). Leveraging the capabilities of the proven WJR reader module family, the WJR7080 offers dynamic RF output power settings, two antenna ports, and WJ's Application Protocol Interface (API) for all WJ reader module platforms. Current users of WJR RFID reader modules can plug-and-play the WJR7080 device without modifying their existing configurations; thereby, allowing their entry into the European market rapidly and in a cost-effective manner.
"WJ was recently awarded the 2007 North American Frost & Sullivan Award for Product Innovation for the two leading RFID products -- WJC200 RFID reader chipset, and WJM3000 RFID reader module. With the introduction of WJR7080, we complement the existing cutting-edge WJ RFID modules to meet the growing requirements of RFID enabled mobile devices in different regions," said Haresh Patel, SVP of Sales and Marketing at WJ Communications. "With the new addition to the WJR family, WJ's RFID reader modules are now fully deployed in all significant RFID regions -- North and South America, Asia Pacific, and Europe."
