Fluensee Partners With Intelleflex to Offer RFID Battery-Assisted Passive Tags and Readers
Fluensee Customers Will Benefit From Longer Tag Read Ranges at an Affordable Price

ENGLEWOOD, CO -- (MARKET WIRE) -- January 9, 2007 -- RFID-enabled asset management and supply
chain solution provider Fluensee Inc. has signed an agreement to support
Intelleflex's new battery-assisted passive RFID tags and readers as part of
its comprehensive asset tracking and supply chain management solutions. The
Intelleflex line of tags and readers fills a necessary void between the
lower price but limited capability of passive tags and the more expensive
active technology available today. Through this alliance, Fluensee
customers can now choose from a wider selection of RFID hardware options to
complement Fluensee's asset management software.
Under the agreement, Fluensee is an authorized reseller of Intelleflex
InfoSure single-chip RFID tags and I-Beam multi-protocol readers. The
InfoSure battery-assisted passive tags have long-distance read/write
capabilities of up to 100 meters in free space when used with the I-Beam
readers, making them comparable with active tags, but at a significantly
lower cost. The 100-meter read/write range in free space translates to 100
percent read/write reliability at standard working ranges in industrial
environments.
"As a provider of RFID-enabled asset management software and services,
Fluensee is committed to partnering with best-in-class manufacturers of
RFID technologies," said Chris Brumett, Fluensee's vice president of
operations. "Our partnership with Intelleflex further extends upon
Fluensee's ability to deliver the most cost-effective asset management
solutions to meet the various needs of our customers."
Fluensee has built a base of successful RFID implementations and a partner
network that includes the world's leading RFID hardware manufacturers. The
Intelleflex relationship extends Fluensee's ability to provide the best
RFID options to customers in industries such as transportation and
logistics, automotive and IT management, among others.
"With Intelleflex's newest RFID tags and readers, Fluensee customers can
now reap the benefits of reliable, long-range reads characteristic of
active tags, yet at a significantly lower cost," said Craig Kavanaugh,
Intelleflex's senior director of channel sales. "Intelleflex's intelligent
RFID platform represents a 'best of both worlds' approach between active
and passive tags, and offers compelling value for multiple industry
verticals for applications such as asset tracking and yard management."
Intelleflex's InfoSure tags and the I-Beam reader are multi-protocol,
ensuring global interoperability using EPC standards. InfoSure tags can be
used as passive C1G2 tags with any other C1G2 reader or used in the
battery-assisted passive mode at long ranges with the I-Beam reader. In the
event of a battery failure, the tags can be used as C1G2 passive tags.
