AN440-CPDFQ915WR

Zebra DualTrack RFID Antenna delivers rugged dual-element performance for high-throughput RFID tracking in indoor and outdoor environments. With dual polarization, global UHF support, and a dual-N-type design for bi-static or dual mono-static use, it is built for reliable read zones around shelves, doorways, portals, dock doors, and other RF-challenging locations.
Description
ico-plus ico-minus

The Zebra AN440 Dual-Element RFID Antenna is a rugged, dual-polarized UHF antenna engineered for reliable tag capture in demanding indoor and outdoor environments. Designed for inventory, logistics, retail and manufacturing deployments, the AN440 provides flexible read-zone coverage at portals, shelves, conveyors, dock doors and other high-traffic chokepoints. Its dual-element Dual-N-Type architecture supports bi-static or two mono-static configurations while dual polarization (1 x LHCP / 1 x RHCP) improves orientation tolerance and tag visibility. With global UHF band support, IP67 sealing, a low-profile ASA housing and integrated mounting holes, the AN440 simplifies installation and delivers consistent performance where durability and accurate, high-throughput RFID reads are essential.

Key Features

  • Dual-Element Architecture: Combines two antenna elements in one enclosure to support bi-static or dual mono-static deployments for flexible coverage layouts.
  • Dual Polarization: 1 x LHCP and 1 x RHCP polarization improves tag detection across orientations and reduces missed reads in cluttered environments.
  • Global UHF Compatibility: Operates across 902–928 MHz (US) and 865–868 MHz (EU), enabling consistent multi-region deployments with a single antenna model.
  • Rugged, Install-Ready Design: IP67-rated ASA housing with integrated mounting holes supports ceiling or wall installation and resists harsh environmental conditions.
  • Broad Read Coverage: 6 dBiL gain and a 70° 3 dB beamwidth deliver wide, reliable read zones suitable for portals and high-traffic areas.

FAQs
ico-plus ico-minus
What UHF frequency bands does the Zebra AN440 RFID antenna support?
The AN440 operates across 902–928 MHz for US deployments and 865–868 MHz for EU deployments, allowing a single antenna model to serve multi-region installations without substitution.
How does the Zebra AN440 handle RFID tags that are randomly oriented on shelves or conveyors?
The AN440 uses dual polarization — one left-hand circular (LHCP) and one right-hand circular (RHCP) element — which improves detection of tags regardless of their orientation and reduces missed reads in cluttered environments.
Can the Zebra AN440 be used in both bi-static and mono-static RFID reader configurations?
Yes. Its dual-element Dual-N-Type architecture, with two Type N female connectors, supports either a bi-static configuration or two independent mono-static configurations from a single enclosure.
What are the key physical and environmental specifications of the Zebra AN440 for outdoor or harsh-environment installations?
The AN440 is rated IP67, operates from -22 to +158 °F, and is housed in an acrylonitrile styrene acrylate (ASA) enclosure measuring 22.6 x 10.2 x 1.32 inches and weighing 4.2 lbs, with integrated mounting holes for ceiling or wall installation.
What read-zone coverage characteristics does the Zebra AN440 provide at portal or dock-door chokepoints?
The antenna delivers 6 dBiL gain with a 70° 3 dB beamwidth, making it suited for wide, reliable coverage at high-traffic areas such as portals, dock doors, and conveyor lines.
