Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Monza R6 and R6-P?
Monza R6 has 96-bit EPC memory with no user memory, while R6-P adds 64/32 bits of user memory and security features including access/kill passwords and short-range mode for privacy protection.
What is the read sensitivity of Impinj Monza R6?
The Monza R6 and R6-P both feature -22 dBm read sensitivity, enabling reliable detection at extended ranges in retail and supply chain environments.
Does Monza R6-P support EPC Gen2v2 features?
Yes, both Monza R6 and R6-P are fully compliant with EPCglobal Gen2v2 and ISO 18000-63 standards, supporting advanced features like FastID for high-speed inventory and TagFocus to prevent duplicate reads.
What is Impinj FastID used for?
FastID is a high-speed reading mode that enables rapid singulation of multiple tags simultaneously, ideal for fast-moving conveyor systems and high-volume retail inventory applications where read speed is critical.
Can Monza R6-P memory be password protected?
Yes, the Monza R6-P supports 32-bit access and kill passwords for memory protection, along with a short-range mode that restricts read range for privacy-sensitive applications.
What frequency range does Monza R6 operate on?
