MOTOROLA FX7500

ADVANCED FIXED RFID READER FOR BUSINESS CLASS ENVIRONMENTS

BETTER PERFORMANCE. BETTER VALUE.
THAT’S WHERE WE STARTED.

You know that the right RFID solution can help you keep
track of the people and products that matter most to
you – and save valuable time and money in the process
– but only if the technology can capture data quickly,
accurately and cost-effectively enough to keep up with
your business. The faster your business moves, the more
your business-critical applications will demand from an
RFID reader. And these days, no one is slowing down
their pace of business.

RFID begins with the radio. So that’s where Motorola
began with the Motorola FX7500 Fixed RFID Reader. We
created a new RFID radio technology, purposely designed
from the ground up for faster, more accurate read rates,
and more consistent performance even in challenging
environments. This software-based radio technology
effectively future-proofs your RFID investment by
delivering flexibility to implement future upgrades and
improvements with minimal investment. Then we paired
that radio with a new, more flexible Linux-based network
architecture that integrates the tools and open-standard
inter faces you need for fast, easy deployment with your
RFID and back-end applications.

The result is a fixed RFID reader that sets a new
performance standard – delivering peak performance
at all times with excellent reader sensitivit y and better
interference rejection, at a lower cost per read point.
It works better. It costs less.

DRAFT

EASY TO DEPLOY, SIMPLE TO MANAGE –
IN ANY ENTERPRISE, LARGE OR SMALL

Ever wished you could minimize the gap between your
technology dream and its reality? Everything about the
Motorola FX7500 is designed to get your RFID plan off
the drawing board and into your business environment,
without delays, complications or unexpected costs.

Installation is dead simple. Hang the supplied bracket,
then snap the reader in place. No outlet nearby? No
problem. Integrated Power over Ethernet (PoE) lets you
place the FX7500 where it is needed without installing
extra outlets – ideal for large open areas. Once plugged
into the network, devices are auto-detected; for most
applications, pre-defined configuration files and a built-in
testing tool let you simply verify that your FX7500 readers
are up, running and ready to operate. Port configuration
options let you deploy exactly the number of read points
you need – no need for expensive overlaps.

For large scale global deployments, the FX 7500 helps
reduce costs by conforming out-of-the-box with major
worldwide RFID standards and inter faces, including FCC
and ETSI EN 302 208, LLRP and Reader Management.
IPv6, FIPS and TLS compliance help ensure network
security. A built-in USB host port with select third
party adaptors provides easy connectivity with Wi-Fi
and Bluetooth networks. Add the F X7500’s Auto mode
configuration and third-party application hosting
capabilities, and you have an unbeatable workhorse that
is adaptable to multiple application environments – the
ideal platform for your RFID solution.

All-new high performance
radio technology

Higher sensitivity, improved
interference rejection and
echo cancellation means
you get the best-in-class
dense reader mode
performance, up to 1200 +
tags/sec in FM0 mode.

Integrated Power Over
Ethernet (POE), optically
isolated GPIO, USB
Client and Host ports
with Wi-Fi and Blue­tooth connectivity

All the tools you need for
fast, easy deployment
and simplified ongoing
management of your RFID
applications are built
right into the FX7500
architecture.

2-port and 4-port
reader configurations

More configuration options
mean more flexibility to
optimize your read field.
Deploy precisely the
number of read points you
need for proper coverage,
no more, no less, and
reduce your TCO.

Plenum Area Rated

The FX7500 is approved and
suitable for environmental
air handling space
installation, so it can
operate effectively within
walls and ceilings.

SMART LOOKS, SMART INVESTMENT

The Motorola FX7500 comes in a sleek, attractive form
factor with a low profile and compact footprint, at home
in nearly any business environment. But it also looks
good on the balance sheet, with an impressive array of
integrated features and functionality that pack value
for your business class applications. An integrated
optically isolated General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO)
interface means there’s no need to purchase, install
and manage additional hardware. The ability to host
productivity-enhancing, third-party software tools, like
Microsoft BizTalk and IBM’s Web Sphere, makes it easy
to support your business operations. Available two or four
monostatic port option adds deployment flexibility so you
can purchase only the readers you need, no more, no less.
In short, building on the FX7500 lets you protect your RFID
investment and achieve a lower total cost of ownership.
