1 Introduction
The Synapse xTP Short Range Reader is part of a proprietary data acquisition and tracking
system. It provides an HF RFID reader (TX/RX) to read RFID tag data from proprietary RFID
media. This RFID tag data can be then sent over an Ethernet connection to a data
collection/concentration object. The xTP is designed to be mounted in several known
stanchions which provide the final weather proof enclosure for the product.
The xTP assembly is designed to be mounted in one of several different stanchion designs.
Among the existing stanchion designs are the Park Entry Sphere, multiple themed
stanchions, and several kiosk installations. The diagram below shows the sub-assemblies
that go into the themed stanchion assemblies.
