Press Release Summary: Static data are written on the tag and are sent at a
programmable interval without requiring a request from the reader.

Press Release Body: Toronto, Canada – GAO RFID Inc. (www.GAORFID.com)
provides a new active UHF beacon tag. This beacon tag is a cost-effective long-range
active RFID tag appropriate for tracking mobile assets, controlling access or online
inventory, and localizing of assets or personnel in designated areas. It offers
outstanding long-range capabilities for wireless applications.

Static data are written on the tag and are sent at a programmable interval without
requiring a request from the reader. The tag uses advanced UHF radio frequency
technology and sends data to a mobile (handheld) or fixed reader (interrogator) at
distances of up to 300 feet (100 meters). Its ultra-low power consumption and
configurable ping rate enables it to operate effectively for many years without
additional maintenance.

“Active RFID technologies offer many benefits over passive technologies for certain
applications”, says, Dr. Frank Gao, CEO of GAO Group, “these new active tags take
full advantage of such benefits.”

GAO’s active UHF Beacon Tag provides the following features:
 It has a range of 100 meters, allowing the longest read-range for
identification and tracking using beacon technology.
 Its long battery lifetime can deliver very-long time maintenance-free
operation.
 Non-line-of-sight data transmission offers great convenience.
 Tags are available for both standard North American and European ISM band
frequencies.


 It also provides a selectable ping rate to avoid a busy band.
 Low costs.
