The CK-D12L Long Range RFID Reader offers an adjustable reading range of ​​0–20 meters​​ (approximately 0–65 feet), depending on environmental conditions and configuration. This distance is influenced by:

• ​​Output Power​​: Adjustable from 0–33 dBm (1 dB increments) to optimize signal strength for specific applications.
• ​​Antenna Gain​​: The integrated 12dBi high-gain antenna ensures focused signal transmission for extended coverage.
• ​​Tag Type​​: Passive UHF tags with higher sensitivity will perform better at longer ranges.
• ​​Environment​​: Obstacles, interference sources, and weather conditions (e.g., metal surfaces, humidity) may reduce effective range.
  For optimal performance in open areas, the reader’s ​​anti-collision algorithm​​ and ​​carrier cancellation technology​​ minimize interference, ensuring stable long-range tag detection even in high-density scenarios.

Designed for industrial and outdoor use, the CK-D12L Long Range RFID Reader incorporates ​​IP-rated protection​​ (exact rating not specified but described as “dustproof and waterproof”) and a ruggedized build:

• ​​Durability​​: The ABS plastic antenna housing and full aluminum alloy cavity provide resistance to physical impacts, UV exposure, and corrosion.
• ​​Temperature Tolerance​​: Operates in ​​-20°C to 60°C​​ (-4°F to 140°F) and survives storage in ​​-45°C to 85°C​​ (-49°F to 185°F), suitable for extreme climates.
• ​​Anti-Interference Features​​: Wide-spectrum frequency hopping (840–960 MHz), lightning/surge protection circuits, and <200 kHz channel bandwidth ensure stable performance near machinery, metal structures, or electromagnetic noise.
  These features make it ideal for logistics yards, construction sites, or manufacturing plants where dust, moisture, and temperature fluctuations are common.

Yes, the CK-D12L Long Range RFID Reader is built for seamless integration with enterprise IT infrastructure. Key compatibility features include:

• ​​Protocol Support​​: Complies with ​​ISO 18000-6C/EPC C1G2​​, ISO 18000-6B, GJB7377.1-2011, and GB/T29768-2013 standards, ensuring broad tag compatibility.
• ​​Communication Interfaces​​: Offers ​​TCP/IP (10/100M Ethernet)​​ and ​​RS-232 serial ports​​ (configurable baud rates: 9600–460,800), enabling connectivity to PLCs, SCADA systems, or cloud platforms.
• ​​Software Flexibility​​: Includes SDKs, APIs, and demo software for custom application development. Features like ​​RSSI signal strength analysis​​ and ​​tag data filtering​​ allow precise control over data collection and reporting.
  For scalability, the reader supports ​​firmware over-the-air (FOTA) updates​​ and automatic inventory management, reducing manual intervention in large-scale deployments.
