Fluensee Partners with Intelleflex to Offer RFID
Battery-Assisted Passive Tags and Readers
Fluensee Customers Will Benefit From Longer Tag Read Ranges
at an Affordable Price
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — January 09, 2007 — RFID-enabled asset management and
supply chain solution provider Fluensee Inc. has signed an agreement to
support Intelleflex’s new battery-assisted passive RFID tags and readers as
part of its comprehensive asset tracking and supply chain management
solutions. The Intelleflex line of tags and readers fills a necessary void
between the lower price but limited capability of passive tags and the more
expensive active technology available today. Through this alliance, Fluensee
customers can now choose from a wider selection of RFID hardware options to
complement Fluensee’s asset management software.

Under the agreement, Fluensee is an authorized reseller of Intelleflex
InfoSureTM single-chip RFID tags and I-BeamTM multi-protocol readers. The
InfoSure battery-assisted passive tags have long-distance read/write
capabilities of up to 100 meters in free space when used with the I-Beam
readers, making them comparable with active tags, but at a significantly
lower cost. The 100-meter read/write range in free space translates to 100
percent read/write reliability at standard working ranges in industrial
environments.
“As a provider of RFID-enabled asset management software and services,
Fluensee is committed to partnering with best-in-class manufacturers of RFID
technologies,” said Chris Brumett, Fluensee’s vice president of operations.
“Our partnership with Intelleflex further extends upon Fluensee’s ability to
deliver the most cost-effective asset management solutions to meet the
various needs of our customers.”
Fluensee has built a base of successful RFID implementations and a
partner network that includes the world's leading RFID hardware
manufacturers. The Intelleflex relationship extends Fluensee’s ability to
provide the best RFID options to customers in industries such as
transportation and logistics, automotive and IT management, among others.
“With Intelleflex’s newest RFID tags and readers, Fluensee customers can
now reap the benefits of reliable, long-range reads characteristic of active
tags, yet at a significantly lower cost,” said Craig Kavanaugh,
Intelleflex’s senior director of channel sales. “Intelleflex’s intelligent
RFID platform represents a ‘best of both worlds’ approach between active and
passive tags, and offers compelling value for multiple industry verticals
for applications such as asset tracking and yard management.”
Intelleflex’s InfoSure tags and the I-Beam reader are multi-protocol,
ensuring global interoperability using EPC standards. InfoSure tags can be
used as passive C1G2 tags with any other C1G2 reader or used in the
battery-assisted passive mode at long ranges with the I-Beam reader. In the
event of a battery failure, the tags can be used as C1G2 passive tags.
