Overview

Unleash Seamless Vehicle Access with Ultra-Long-Range UHF RFID

Engineered for harsh environments and high-traffic flow. The KEYPLUS UHF RFID Reader series delivers an unprecedented 30-meter reading range, IP68 extreme ruggedness, and multi-protocol integration for modern parking and industrial checkpoints. Featuring ISO 18000-6C global compliance, up to 33dBm output power, and versatile interfaces including WG26, RS485, RJ45, and relay output for hands-free vehicle authentication.

Core Features

  • Up to 30m Ultra-Long Range: Pro Model delivers up to 33dBm output power paired with a 15dBi directional antenna, achieving dependable 30-meter read distances that exceed industry benchmarks by 20%.
  • IP68 Extreme Weather Resilience: Rugged metal/plastic composite enclosure with up to IP68 rating, fully sealed against torrential downpours, coastal salt spray, and abrasive industrial dust.
  • Versatile Global Integration: Fully compliant with ISO 18000-6C protocol and standard equipped with RS232, RS485, WG26, RJ45 Ethernet, and Relay Output for direct connectivity to legacy and modern controllers.
  • Smart Pole-Mount with Visible Feedback: Features an adjustable mounting bracket for precise beam angle alignment and high-visibility LED status indicators for real-time diagnostics.

Pain Points & The Solution

  • End the Gate Congestion: Traditional short-range card readers create severe traffic bottlenecks at entry barriers, forcing drivers to roll down windows and manually swipe cards in inclement weather.

The Solution: With up to 33dBm output power and a 15dBi directional antenna, vehicles are authenticated smoothly from up to 30 meters away—drivers never have to roll down their windows, keeping entrance queues flowing continuously.


  • Conquer Harsh Outdoor Elements: Standard readers frequently suffer from moisture intrusion, condensation, and temperature shock under open-air toll conditions, leading to unexpected motherboard damage and costly service replacements.

The Solution: Heavy-duty composite housing certified up to IP68 completely shields the internal RF circuitry against heavy rain, dust storms, and extreme temperatures, delivering zero-maintenance outdoor durability.
