Nordic ID EXA81 IP65 UHF RFID Sled UK | PDF

EXA81 ENGINEERING HIGHLIGHTS

Why UK Engineers Specify the Nordic ID EXA81

Full IP65 Outdoor Sled

Keep using corporate Android phones or rugged tablets in pouring British yard weather, the EXA81 is sealed to IP65 and 1.8 m drops.

Massive 10,050 mAh 24 Hr Cell

Outlasts multi shift port, rail, and depot audits on a single charge without mid afternoon battery swaps.

Personal Radar Directional Homing

Cross dipole beam sensing shows both proximity AND directional guidance to zero in on a missing tool or pallet fast.

15 Metre Long Range ETSI Radio

Reads high pallet bays, stacked timber packs, and overhead cable drums from safe ground level.

Built In 1D/2D Barcode Imager

Captures linear and QR/DataMatrix barcodes directly from the sled, no awkward phone camera focussing.

OS Agnostic Bluetooth 5.3

Works seamlessly with corporate Samsung XCover, Zebra/Honeywell touch terminals, iPhones, iPads, and Windows tablets.

NFC Tap to Pair Simplicity

Tap an Android device against the EXA81 grip to pair Bluetooth instantly at the start of a shift.

Subzero -20°C Rated

Maintains full trigger responsiveness and battery output in unheated winter yards and chilled stores.

Turnkey GJBS App Integration

Streams bulk EPC inventories and 2D barcode scans straight into GJBS cloud and on premise tracking databases.

BYOD & CORPORATE SMARTPHONE RFID UPGRADE

Turn Existing Corporate Smartphones & Tablets into 15 Metre IP65 Industrial RFID Readers

Already issued Samsung Galaxy XCover rugged phones, iPhones, or Windows field tablets to your engineers? Clipping on the Nordic ID EXA81 gives them 1,000+ tags/sec long range UHF RFID and industrial 2D barcode scanning without issuing a second cellular contract.

PINPOINT ASSETS IN CROWDED YARDS

Personal Radar Guides Operatives Straight to the Exact Item

Searching 500 identical steel stillages or cable drums for one specific serial number takes minutes instead of hours when the EXA81's cross dipole radar indicates which direction to walk.

TECHNICAL & COMMERCIAL FAQS

EXA81 Buyer & Engineering FAQs

Why choose the Nordic ID EXA81 over an IP54 indoor RFID sled?

If your operatives work outdoors in rain, dusty builders' yards, ports, or washdown areas, or need a 24 hour 10,050 mAh battery and 15 m range, the IP65/1.8m drop EXA81 is purpose built for harsh duty.

Does the EXA81 include a barcode scanner as well as UHF RFID?

Yes, an industrial 1D/2D CMOS imager is built right into the front of the sled and triggered straight from the pistol handle.

Can it pair with Apple iPhones and iPads as well as Android?

Yes, Bluetooth 5.3 Low Energy supports iOS, iPadOS, Android, and Windows host devices.
