All read ranges are affected by the environment the reader and card are subjected too. The following data was obtained in a relatively "noisy" RF area with the reader mounted on a metal backplate. These are the MINIMUM distances measured. A customer will normally find the read range to be better than the data listed here because they will usually place their reader in a more friendly RF environment. The muti-tech reader antennas were optimized to enhance the read range for the smart cards while permitting a slight decrease in read range of the proximity cards.
