Thanks to its versatile form factor, the Hex is well suited for both desktop/counter top applications and for fixed reading point installations. It offers the Ethernet (POE) and USB communication interface in order to simplify the installation both on large and single installations. The Power Over Ethernet capability permits to provide power and to communicate with the reader with a single cable when the POE infrastructure is available. In addition to the internal circular polarized antenna, the Hex provides a connector for an external antenna in order to extend the reading area of the reader and a set of GPIO lines that permits to control external devices like lights or alarms or to get triggers via external sensors (buttons, light barriers). The USB host port, combined with the internal computing architecture, permits to connect USB peripherals like barcode scanners, keyboards, printers and many others transforming the Hex reader in a powerful and versatile identification platform. The reader has an easy to use display and keypad interface for local configuration; the behaviour of the keypad and display can be customized under customer specifications. The Hex is available both for European and US regions allowing installations in various countries worldwide as needed by retailers, forwarders, warehouses and other global organizations.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS R1290I Technical Information Manual 8 3 REGULATORY COMPLIANCE FCC Compliance This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:

a. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. b. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. c. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. d. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Any changes or modification not approved by CAEN RFID could void the users authority to operate the equipment. The device shall be used such that a minimum separation distance of 20cm is maintained between the reader and user's/nearby people's body. RoHS EU Directive The Hex R1290I RFID reader is compliant with the EU Directive 2011/65/CE on the Restriction of the Use of certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS2).
