Brady FR22 UHF RFID Fixed Reader LTE with GA30 Antenna (EU)

Complete fixed RFID solution with LTE and high-gain GA30 antenna

The Brady FR22 fixed RFID reader (LTE EU) with GA30 antenna is designed for applications where maximum read range, high reliability, and autonomous connectivity are essential. This configuration combines the powerful Brady FR22 fixed RFID reader with integrated LTE and the Brady GA30 global-band antenna, creating a complete and self-contained RFID solution for demanding industrial environments.

FR22 LTE as a robust and autonomous system core

The FR22 LTE forms the technical core of this solution and is equipped with a next-generation UHF RFID engine based on the very latest technology. This enables the system to process up to 1,000 RFID tags per second, even in environments with high tag density. Support for the ISO 18000-63 EPC Class 1 Gen2 v2 standard ensures broad compatibility with UHF RFID tags throughout Europe and in international applications. Thanks to its built-in LTE connectivity, the reader operates completely autonomously, without relying on Ethernet or Wi-Fi, making this solution ideal for remote locations or temporary installations.

GA30 global band antenna with true circular polarization

The Brady GA30 antenna is a high-gain global-band antenna with true circular polarization. This ensures reliable reading of RFID tags regardless of their orientation. This is particularly important in dynamic environments where tags move, tilt, or are positioned unpredictably. The GA30’s high gain provides an extremely long read range, reducing the number of antennas needed to cover large areas.

Reliable performance on any surface, including metal

A key advantage of the GA30 antenna is that it can be used on all surfaces, including metal structures. When combined with the FR22 LTE, this delivers stable and consistent RFID performance, even in industrial environments with machinery, racks, and metal infrastructure. The antenna performs reliably in all directions and helps ensure uniform read coverage within the read field.

Seamless installation and centralized configuration

The Brady FR22 LTE mounts directly to the back of the GA30 antenna, resulting in a compact and neat installation. The reader runs on a stable Linux operating system and features a quad-core A7 processor with 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of flash storage. You can centrally manage and configure the system via the integrated web management interface. Integration with existing IT and OT systems is achieved via NUR API, RESTful APIs, OPC UA Auto-ID server, and SSH access.

Designed for demanding industrial applications

With an IP65 rating, support for Power over Ethernet (PoE 802.3at), and a rugged industrial design, this solution is suitable for fixed installations in demanding environments. The Brady FR22 LTE with GA30 antenna is used for applications such as asset tracking, inventory management, inspection labels, and RFID labeling in sectors including logistics, manufacturing, energy, healthcare, and the high-tech industry, where maximum read range and autonomous connectivity are critical.
