Brady RFID Multiplexer 16 ports.

Multiplexer for expansion of fixed RFID installations.

The 16-port Brady MUX multiplexer is designed for scalable and flexible expansion of fixed RFID installations. Fully integrated with the Brady FR22 fixed RFID reader, this multiplexer allows you to expand the number of RFID reading zones from four to up to sixteen antennas. This allows you to create a comprehensive and accurate RFID system with one central reader, without adding additional fixed readers.

Expansion of RFID reading zones without complexity.

The MUX16 significantly increases the range and coverage of RFID applications. By connecting multiple antennas, you distribute read points across different zones such as conveyor belts, aisles, racking or production positions. This makes the multiplexer ideal for applications such as asset tracking, inventory management, inspection processes and automated identification. Thanks to smart switching between antennas, read quality remains consistent even in complex installations with multiple read points.

Unique power and data transmission via coax.

A key technical advantage of the Brady MUX16 is the unique combination of power and data transmission via coaxial cables. This eliminates the need for additional power cables per antenna, simplifying installation and keeping cabling organized. The multiplexer is designed with very low signal losses, resulting in higher efficiency and more reliable RFID performance across all connected antennas.

Direct integration with FR22 and NUR API.

The Brady MUX16 is fully compatible with Brady FR22 fixed RFID readers and ready for immediate use with the NUR API. This allows you to centrally manage antennas and read zones from the same software environment as the RFID reader. Through the API, the multiplexer can be accurately controlled within existing RFID solutions, without additional middleware or complex configurations. This makes the MUX16 suitable for both standard installations and custom solutions within industrial environments.

Visual status check and robust design.

For clear monitoring, the multiplexer is equipped with LED indicators showing which antennas are active. This simplifies installation, maintenance and fault diagnosis. The compact housing with IP20 protection class is designed for fixed mounting in controlled environments such as control cabinets, production areas and engineering plants. With low power consumption and a wide temperature range, the MUX16 continues to operate reliably in industrial applications.

Suitable for a variety of industries

The Brady MUX multiplexer with 16 ports is used in industries such as logistics, manufacturing, healthcare, energy, chemical, retail and high-tech industries. By efficiently expanding RFID read zones without adding additional readers, the MUX16 reduces overall system costs and increases the scalability of fixed RFID solutions. Combined with the Brady FR22, this multiplexer provides a solid foundation for professional, future-proof RFID installations.
