European Retailer Pilots RFID From Checkpoint Systems

checkpointCheckpoint Systems, a supplier of merchandise availability solutions, has released the Zephyr 2 RFID label, which is certified by the University of Arkansas’ ARC Center for item-level tagging of all apparel categories in the U.S. and Europe. Pre-launch orders have been placed for Zephyr 2 RFID labels, which will be used in a pilot program for a large European retailer, according to a company press release.

The new Zephyr 2 has an integrated UCODE 7 chip from NXP Semiconductors, and features read and write sensitivity designed for accurate counting and quicker encoding.
