AN670 RFID Antenna


The AN670 is a low-profile, near-field UHF RFID antenna designed for precise, short-range tag reading in retail, hospitality, healthcare, or any environment where controlled, close-zone reading is required.

The AN670 RFID Antenna is engineered to deliver reliable RFID reads within a tight, well-defined proximity — making it ideal for applications where you want to avoid reading tags that are too far away. Its ultra-slim design (about 0.33 inches thick) enables discreet mounting flush to walls, counters, shelving, or under surfaces, so it blends seamlessly into retail points of sale, store shelves, medical cabinets, or compact storage units.

Because it operates in near-field mode, the AN670 is particularly effective at reading tagged items even when they are close together, or when tags are attached to objects made of metal or containing liquid — cases where standard far-field RFID antennas struggle. This makes AN670 suitable for use with tools, small devices, cans or bottles, small packaged goods, or items that sit on retail shelves or behind counters.

In short: AN670 brings controlled-range RFID reading — letting you detect exactly what’s close by and avoid unwanted reads from nearby areas — all in a thin, easy-to-mount form factor that fits retail, medical, hospitality or other high-density environments.
