Simple fixed UHF RFID reader for reliable identification
The Sampo S1 reader / UHF RFID (USB) EU is a compact and reliable fixed RFID reader and writer for organizations looking for a stable, wired RFID solution without unnecessary complexity. This reader is designed for fixed workstations and applications where simplicity, accuracy and predictable performance are key. Thanks to its USB interface, the Sampo S1 is quickly deployable in existing IT environments and suitable for controlled RFID processes.
Accurate UHF RFID performance with controlled range.
The Sampo S1 delivers reliable UHF RFID reading performance according to the ISO 18000-63 EPC Class 1 Gen2 v2 standard. With a read range of up to approximately 5 meters, the reader is suitable for identification, registration and verification of RFID tags within a defined read area. In DRM mode, the Sampo S1 can process up to 200 tags per read cycle, which is ample for applications where stability and accuracy are more important than high throughput rates.
Integrated circularly polarized antenna
The reader features an integrated circularly polarized antenna with 8 dBic gain. As a result, RFID tags are reliably read regardless of their orientation. This is especially practical in situations where tags are presented manually or are not precisely aligned. The wide read angle ensures consistent performance without the need for additional antennas or complex settings.
USB connection for power and communication
The Sampo S1 uses a USB 2.0 connection for both power and data communication. This makes installation simple and straightforward. If desired, an external power supply can also be used. This flexibility makes the reader suitable for fixed workstations, counters and test setups where a stable wired connection is desired.
Compatible with Windows and Linux environments.
This RFID reader is compatible with Windows 7, 8 and 10 as well as Linux systems, making it widely usable within diverse IT landscapes. The Sampo S1 functions as a reliable RFID interface for PCs, industrial systems and embedded environments without the need for additional hardware.
Designed for fixed workstations and light industrial applications.
With an IP20 rating, the Sampo S1 is suitable for use in controlled environments such as offices, laboratories, workshops and logistics areas. The reader is used for applications such as asset tracking, inventory and inspection labels and simple RFID registration processes. Its compact design and weight of approximately 540 grams make it easy to mount.
Reliable entry-level solution for RFID projects.
The Sampo S1 reader is ideal for organizations that want to start with UHF RFID or need a simple, stable RFID reader for fixed applications. The combination of reliability, easy connection and consistent performance makes this a practical base for RFID projects with limited complexity.
