Elatec - TWN4 Multitech 2
LF/HF RFID Reader


The TWN4 MultiTech 2 family of contactless RFID readers and modules allows users to read and write to almost any LF and HF tags and labels. All products support NFC and, optionally, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). In addition, they are also compatible with the two most commonly used smartphone operating systems, Android and iOS, which gives the option to integrate them in mobile identification applications. The desktop readers are available as Plug & Play devices that can be easily customized (i.e. inlay design), whereas the PCB modules offer a large amount of interfaces and a perfect form factor for an easy and quick integration in any host device. This broad range of product features makes the TWN4 MultiTech 2 family an excellent solution for almost every project.

Key features of the TWN4 MultiTech 2 LF HF desktop reader include a powerful SDK for writing apps that are executed directly on the reader, the possibility to upgrade the firmware in the field, and transparent data exchange with the RFID media. Additionally, the reader can read more than 60 RFID technologies from low (LF) and high frequency (HF) bands, including NFC. This gives the option to select as many of the technologies required instead of being forced to select just a few ones.
