  • C1 MUX

    Pepper C1 MUX RS232

    £47.65

    The Pepper C1 MUX RS232 reader is the multiplexed version of the Pepper C1 – the first Eccel Technology Ltd product with wireless connectivity capabilities. The user can connect up to 8 external (red) RFID antennas. Thanks to the wireless connectivity, the customer receives free lifetime Over-the-Air updates, and of course the communication protocol can be used over TCP instead of the traditional UART/USB interface. Combining these features with standalone mode provides a “straight out of the box” ready to use device for many application. In standalone mode, the module can also send a tag UID over MQTT or WebSockets, making it easy to integrate with IoT systems.

Our products are divided into three families: the Pepper C1 family, the Chilli B1 family, and legacy readers.

The Pepper C1 family represents our core, constantly evolving products with 1.25W RFID transmit power. We offer readers in various forms:

  • standard reader with a built-in RFID antenna on a printed circuit board (black PCB);
  • reader with a socket for connecting an external RFID antenna (External Antenna EA) (blue PCB) that can be connected to green antennas;
  • multiplexed (MUX) reader, which can be connected to up to 8 external RFID antennas (red PCB) that can be connected to red antennas. These three reader versions are available in four interface versions: UART, USB, RS232, and RS485.
  • The Pepper C1 family also includes a small surface-mount module reader that is designed for deep sleep operation – the Pepper C1 module.
  • For large and complex projects, we offer the Pepper C1 PoE with an Ethernet interface with PoE + USB.

The Chilli B1 family includes three reader versions: the Chilli UART B1, the Chilli USB B1, and the Chilli RS232 B1, as well as the B1 RFID module. The Chilli family is equipped with an RFID chip with a transmission power of 500mW. The greatest advantage of the RFID B1 module is its ultra-low current consumption of 20nA in deep sleep mode.

Other readers, such as the RWD Micode, OEM RWD Micode, MicroRWD QT, and RFID A1, are no longer being developed but are still used in many projects and will be available for sale as long as demand persists.
