The Symo IR08 represents the next generation of all-in-one RAIN RFID technology, engineered for superior performance and effortless deployment in the most challenging conditions. This compact yet powerful reader integrates the industry-leading Fudan chipset and a high-gain 8dBi circularly polarized antenna within a single, ultra-durable housing. Designed for logistics, manufacturing, retail, and smart city infrastructure, the IR08 delivers exceptional read accuracy and range while simplifying installation and slashing the total cost of ownership.
Our reader is built to outperform and outlast standard market offerings, with critical enhancements in structural integrity, weatherproofing, and material science, making it the ideal choice for outdoor and industrial applications.
Application Scenarios
Smart City & Sanitation Management: Perfectly suited for installation on garbage trucks to read RFID tags on trash bins. Its excellent seismic resistance, dirt resistance, and IP67 waterproofing ensure reliable performance in this demanding daily-duty cycle.
Parking & Vehicle Access Control: Ideal for license plate recognition systems, gate barriers, and vehicle identification at parking lot entrances/exits. The compact size facilitates discrete installation.
Logistics & Warehouse Management: Deploy at dock doors for automatic pallet and parcel tracking. The rugged IP67 housing withstands dusty and humid warehouse environments.
Retail & Industrial Automation: Enable smart shelves, inventory robots, and automated checkout systems. The high-speed engine ensures accurate reads in dense tag environments.
Unmatched Durability & Anti-Shock |
Features reinforced installation poles and high-strength brackets. Built to withstand severe vibrations and impacts, such as those on garbage trucks and in busy industrial settings, far exceeding the mechanical strength of standard readers. |
Superior Triple-Protection Waterproofing |
Boasts a IP66-67 rating, achieved through a triple-protection design: a dedicated air vent valve, internal drainage ditches, and high-grade waterproof sealing rings. This ensures reliable operation in heavy rain and harsh weather. |
Advanced UV-Resistant Housing |
ASA housing material offers exceptional UV resistance, preventing yellowing and degradation. It also provides superior performance across a wide temperature range (-40°C to +85°C storage), making it perfect for all-weather outdoor use. |
Compact & Lightweight Design |
With more compact and lighter than most models, it simplifies installation and reduces shipping costs, providing a clear logistical advantage. |
Superior RF Performance |
Utilizes FHSS & fixed frequency modes with an advanced anti-collision algorithm for reliable multi-tag reading at speeds up to 500 tags/second. |
Enhanced Data Precision |
Provides RSSI and phase angle data for accurate tag positioning and tracking. |
Robust Security & Flexibility |
Features 16 pre-loaded security keys and powerful data filtering for secure, customized operations. |
Future-Proof & User-Friendly |
Supports online firmware upgrades and includes audible/visual indicators. Optional Wi-Fi/Bluetooth modules offer versatile connectivity. |
