IF5 Rear Panel Ports: This illustration shows the ports on the rear panel. The
IF5 ships with antenna terminators mounted on RFID antenna ports 2, 3, and
4.
The IF5 RFID antenna ports use these connectors:
• 865-869 MHz: SMA
• 915 MHz: Reverse SMA
Make sure you have appropriate antennas and cables for your
IF5. For help, contact your Intermec sales representative.
Government regulatory agencies require that this RFID reader
only use approved antennas. Therefore, this reader uses a
custom antenna connector. Do not use antennas not approved
for use with this reader.
Note: The IF5 ships with antenna terminators installed on RFID
antenna ports 2, 3, and 4. Do not remove the terminator from
any port unless you are installing an antenna or antenna cable on
that port.
