Elatec TWN4 MultiTech

TWN4 is the next generation of the well-established and proven TWN3 offering. This highly flexible RFID interrogator is capable of dynamically reading a broad spectrum of radio frequencies and tags. It is also able to incorporate various transponder types and frequency ranges, with minimal effort and cost. The device is an indispensable asset when developing applications and systems.

The TWN4 MultiTech family of transponder readers and writers allows users to read and write to almost any 125 kHz / 134.2 kHz and 13.56 MHz tags and/or labels.

Elatec's TWN4 MultiTech / TWN4 MultiTech M is a contactless RFID reader/writer and a direct enhancement of the TWN3 with the same mechanical dimensions (OEM PCB and Desktop Housing). The TWN4 MultiTech family of transponder readers and writers allows users to read and write to almost any 125 kHz / 134.2 kHz and 13.56 MHz tags and/or labels. TWN4 MultiTech also supports all major transponders from various suppliers like ATMEL, EM, ST, NXP, TI, HID, LEGIC, and ISO standards like ISO14443A/B (T=CL), ISO15692 and ISO18092/ECMA-340 (NFC).

This reader is a multi-frequency reader that nearly supports all types of transponders in one reader. This is very useful to reduce stock or to handle companies that migrate from one to another RFID technology or have different RFID systems at different locations.
