Vehicle identification
The UHF Windshield Tag is a vehicle identification tag offering cost-effective, long-range identification for security and parking applications. This passive RFID sticker is specifically designed for applications where convenience, security, and smooth vehicle flow are essential.
Powered by proven uPASS technology, the tag enables organizations to efficiently manage vehicles and grant secure access. Based on passive UHF technology (± 900 MHz), it can be identified from up to 15 meters* (50 ft) by uPASS Target or from up to 10 meters* (33 ft) by uPASS Go.
