ST5500 Transition RFID Reader
Track inventory location and direction
Whether you are a retailer, distributor or manufacturer, you need to know more than the presence of tagged items to harness the
power of inventory visibility; you also need to know which direction items are traveling. While standard RFID readers detect presence
only, Zebra’s pre-configured, ST5500 transition RFID reader tracks items on the move, providing presence and enabling direction.
A New Layer of Business Intelligence
Zebra’s ST5500 transition RFID reader tracks direction to give
you an additional layer of business intelligence, so you can better
manage inventory and prevent lost sales, stockouts, theft, and
unplanned downtime on the manufacturing plant floor. Plus, with the
data over time, you can identify process gaps and improve inventory
workflows. The ST5500 provides you with which way a tag is moving
through the portal so you can automatically remove it from stock
when it goes from the stock room to the sales floor.
Designed for Challenging Areas
Zebra’s ST5500 transition RFID reader works in virtually any area in
your facility—from your main building entry and exit areas, including
the receiving and loading docks, to interior transition points such
as the warehouse and plant floor in a manufacturing plant, it is
designed to meet specific needs in challenging areas, such as
backrooms and aisles where metal, fluorescent lights and more can
create interference. This product is also at home in aisles and will-
call areas that require very tight read ranges.

Everything you need is already pre-configured and ready to go.
Simply suspend from the ceiling or mount on a wall for fast and easy
