A great alternative to metal mount applications where a standoff will not work, Metalcraft’s RFID Server Rack Tag consists of an adhesive label that protects the encapsulated RFID inlay and a non-adhesive, folding tab that offsets the RFID inlay. The label has three sections: a middle section housing the RFID inlay; one end adheres to and provides extra protection for the inlay; while the other end adheres to the asset being tracked.

All Metalcraft RFID Tags are designed with our proven durability, ready to withstand repeated usage in rugged environments, generating a greater ROI for your business. Each tag can be programmed to match the variable information printed on the label. Every product features a subsurface printed digital printing process which ensures crisp details on even the most complex logos for maximum clarity. Four color processing is available for limitless color and design options.

Potential Applications for RFID Server Rack Tags

Asset Tracking – the RFID Server Rack Tag can be used to track blade servers and other IT equipment where space is an issue.

Specifications Data
Material .002” polyester; approximately .035” total product thickness
Serialization Bar code and human-readable equivalent is produced using the latest high-resolution digital technology available, which provides excellent clarity and easy scanning. Code 39 is the standard symbology with a range of 2.7 to 9.4 CPI (characters per inch). Optional symbologies include code 128, i 2 of 5, 2D Datamatrix and QR code. The bar code and human readable can be programmed into the RFID inlay as long as the information is in decimal or hexadecimal format. The programmed information can be locked, which prevents the RFID inlay from being rewritten. Metalcraft can enclode up to 24 characters into the RFID inlay. If desired, metalcraft can encode information that differs from the bar code and human readable.
Label Copy The label copy may include block type, stylized type, logos or other designs. All copy, block type, stylized type, logos, designs, and bar code are subsurface printed. This unique process provides excellent resistance to solvents, caustics, acids and moderate abrasion.
Colors Standard colors include black, red, yellow, green, dark blue, purple, orange, dark blue, purple, orange and blue. Due to contrast needed for the bar code scanner, all bar codes are black.

What are Micro RFID Tags?

Micro RFID tags are small RFID device with a chip and antenna that communicates with an RFID reader through radio waves. They typically have a small footprint, like the 1 7/8" x 5/8" Universal Micro RFID Tag from Metalcraft, and is often used in applications where space is limited or where the RFID tag must be unobtrusive.

Potential Applications for Universal Micro RFID Tags

Asset Tracking – the barcode and human readable ID number on Universal Micro RFID Tags can be used to track information about the metal asset the RFID tag is adhered to, i.e., laptops, furniture, containers, equipment and more.
