Embedded UHF RFID module supplier Trimble has sealed a global distribution agreement with Digi-Key. It covers Trimble’s ThingMagic Mercury 6e series and Mercury 5e series.
“Partnering with Digi-Key represents an ideal fit for Trimble ThingMagic at this time given the growth we are seeing for our embedded RFID reader modules. Digi-Key’s reputation for best-in-class service aligns with our commitment to superior customer support. We are impressed with the quality support and broad reach Digi-Key brings to the developer and OEM markets and are very excited to begin this relationship with Digi-Key,” said David Emma, vice president of Sales, Marketing and Engineering for Trimble’s ThingMagic Division.
“We’re always seeking ways to strategically expand our line card, particularly with innovative wireless solutions,” said Chris Beeson, Digi-Key executive vice president, Sales and Supplier Development. “The ThingMagic Mercury Series products are easy for engineers to work with, giving them the foundation for RFID innovation.”
ThingMagic’s embedded UHF RFID modules support high read rates as well as RF transmit levels to allow for reading tags at over twice the distance of competing solutions, reading smaller tags without forfeiting read distance and enabling OEMs to incorporate smaller antennas into their products without sacrificing read performance.
