Quickly implement RFID technology at key transit points    Symbol's DC600 is a compact, packaged radio frequency identification (RFID) portal system designed to enable the rapid deployment of proven and reliable RFID technology at your dock doors and doorways. It lets you capture bulk data from a large number of tagged items as they quickly pass by. With the DC600 in place, you’ll be able to track RFID-tagged assets, products and cargo as they enter and leave your facilities and storage areas and move throughout your supply chain.

Benefit from a proven, turnkey portal system    The DC600 offers a light footprint, flexible installation and multiple configuration options, allowing you to use it in a number of environments. The preassembled, tuned and tested system lets you deploy your RFID portal quickly, enabling you to execute standard, repeatable installations that reduce deployment costs and your total cost of ownership. The DC600 provides all the components you need to quickly establish read zones at doorways, including a powerful RFID reader, high-performance antenna, integrated electronics module and cabling, all consolidated in a durable housing designed to simplify installation, reduce maintenance costs and improve reliability. With three models to choose from, you’re able to find the right one for your environment—select the dual configuration for use between entryways, the single option for individual entryways or for deployment as an end unit, or the slim configuration for flush-wall mounting.

Track and manage assets as they move through your supply chain    A scalable system designed to support a number of your enterprise needs, the DC600 delivers increased asset visibility and reduced supply chain shrinkage when tracking inventory in motion. Use the RFID portal to capture information about your products as they enter and leave your warehouse, distribution center, retail store, airport or any other transit area. Transmit this data to warehousing and inventory management applications for real-time inventory status. Or integrate it with your point-of-sale (POS) systems to track low-stock items and efficiently direct high-value, shorter shelf-life or promotional items.

Accurately capture and transmit tag data    With the DC600 in place, you’ll be able to capture all RFID tag information passing through your read zones. It offers next-generation, multi-protocol RFID reader technology to provide simultaneous support for both Generation (Gen) 2 and all classes of Gen 1. In addition, the portal includes Symbol’s next-generation RFID reader to ensure accurate data capture and long read ranges even in large-scale, dense-reader environments.

Make immediate decisions using real-time information    The DC600 also offers real-time alerting and alarms, which let you react to and even automate your response to data as it’s captured, enabling you to respond more quickly to business demands. With a mature and well-supported application programming interface (API), the DC600 allows for easy integration with existing back-end information systems. So whether you need to automatically route high-demand items to priority retail locations, or require immediate information on incomplete or incorrect shipments, the DC600 will be able to support and notify you in real time.
