Real Case: Animal RFID Reader in Israel
One of our clients in Israel’s livestock sector implemented the JIA-HDX01 RFID Tag Reader at a centralized cattle sorting and weighing station. The fixed reader was installed at the entry and exit gates to automatically scan animal RFID tags during weigh-ins.
Results:
*99.8% tag read accuracy
*70% reduction in labor
*Real-time sync with the government animal health database.
*Improved outbreak traceability and movement tracking.
*This project significantly improved livestock monitoring and reduced manual errors in cattle identification.

FAQs: Understanding RFID in Animal Tracking
❓ What is an Animal RFID Reader used for?
An animal RFID reader is used to identify livestock via RFID ear tags, ensuring traceability, health tracking, and compliance with agriculture regulations. It’s essential for cattle, pigs, sheep, and even exotic animals.
❓ What are HDX and FDX in RFID?
HDX (Half Duplex) and FDX (Full Duplex) refer to two tag communication modes. In FDX, the tag and reader communicate simultaneously. In HDX, the tag responds after receiving the signal from the reader.
❓ What’s the difference between HDX and FDX RFID?
FDX-B: Lower cost, faster reading, commonly used for pets and livestock.
HDX: Longer range, more interference-resistant, better for harsh conditions.
Our Animal RFID Reader supports both for maximum flexibility.
❓ Can this RFID Tag Reader be used outdoors?
Yes. With an IP64 protection rating, it’s resistant to dust, moisture, and temperature extremes, making it ideal for outdoor livestock operations.
❓ Is this LF RFID Reader compatible with all animal tags?
It supports ISO11784/11785-compliant tags, including HDX and FDX-B formats such as EM4305, T5577, and S256 chips.
❓ How do I install the Animal RFID Reader?
Mount it near gates, weigh stations, or animal passageways. Connect using RS232 or RS485, and begin scanning RFID tags within range.
