This new generation of Confidex’s industry-leading family of products leverages Impinj’s latest IC: the M780, offering best-in-class performance for automotive and manufacturing enterprises.

“Impinj is proud to collaborate with Confidex. The newly-released Impinj M780 RAIN RFID tag chip helps Confidex’s family of industrial products deliver the high performance needed to meet the growing demands in industrial RAIN RFID applications,” said Martin Liebl, senior director product management at Impinj.
