IT Asset Tracking with RAIN RFID Demonstration

IT Asset Tracking DemonstrationIndy RS2000 SiP and Monza R6 on-metal inlays

Track IT Assets with RAIN RFIDIdentify and locate hard drives in server racks or Network Attached Storage units

RAIN RFID BenefitsReal-time monitoring:• Know which rack

and slot hard drive is located in

• Identify which hard drives are missing

• Know if hard drive has moved to a different rack

On-Metal RAIN RFID TagsTags take up little space, enabling use in tight spaces

How It Works

Impinj Indy RS2000 SiP• Impinj Indy RS2000

lowers cost of embedding RAIN RFID reader capability• Only three

connections to start reading tags

• Connect up to four antennas

• Raspberry Pi functions as IoT component, sending data to cloud

Configure Rack with Coax Antenna• An antenna is placed

in back of NAS for reading of tagged assets

• Larger server racks can be configured with a series of antennas

On-Metal TagsOmni-ID tags with Impinj Monza R6 provide optimized performance within space constrained areas
