    30 dBm transmit power. Note that Speedway/R supports the IEEE standard 802.3af (for PoE). • Compact Form Factor The compact size of Speedway/R (7.4 x 6.9 x 1.2 in) enables ease of installation in tight spaces and embedded applications. • Availability of Two Models Speedway/R offers two models, each with a different number of high performance monostatic antenna ports.
  • Page 6: Hardware Requirements

    Standard Ethernet cable(s) Power Requirements As noted earlier, there are two options for powering your Speedway/R reader: Power- Over-Ethernet (PoE) or an external power supply. PoE offers the most efficient power consumption and allows up to +30 dBm. An external power supply allows up to +32.5 dBm.
  • Page 7: Supported Communication Protocol

    Chapter 1: Introduction Supported Communication Protocol For client control of the reader, Speedway/R supports the EPCglobal Low Level Reader Protocol (LLRP) v1.0.1. LLRP is an EPCglobal standard interface that allows communi- cation with the reader and with EPCglobal Generation 2 (Gen 2) RFID tags.
