What is Cisco RFID?

RFID is an automatic identification technology that uses radio waves to capture data from tags, rather than optically scanning the bar codes on a label. With High-Frequency (HF) RFID, the signal can travel up to 1 meter but the cost will be higher than for LF.

Which command will enable RFID?

You can configure and view RFID tag tracking information through the controller CLI. Step 1 Enable or disable RFID tag tracking by entering this command: config rfid status {enable | disable} The default value is enabled.

What is an RFID switch?

RFID safety switch RFID safety switches communicate on the basis of radio waves (Radio frequency identification) and are thus contactless. RFID switches are uniquely coded and can not be manipulated, which makes a high level of security possible. The transponder (transmitter) transmits a magnetic field to the receiver.

Is RFID and tag ID same?

What is RFID Tag? RFID or Radio Frequency Identification Tag is an ID system meant for the purpose of identification and tracking through the use of small radio frequency identification devices. Information is stored electronically within the tag.

Is FASTag an RFID?

What kind of RFID is Cisco Catalyst 9000?

The RFID tags are compatible with the Generation 2 GS1 EPC Global Standard and are ISO 18000-6C compliant. They operate in the 860- to 960-MHz UHF band. For more information, see Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) on Cisco Catalyst 9000 Family

Can a RFID tag communicate with a WiFi access point?

The answer depends on the type of RFID tag being used. As of Cisco UWN software Release 4.1, only 802.11 Wi-Fi active RFID tags (or multimode asset tags containing 802.11 Wi-Fi active RFID capabilities) can communicate directly with Wi-Fi access points (including Cisco Wi-Fi access points).
