Lessons Learned - FacilitiesYou need to be very aware of interference and the
proximity of metal (including nails/screws in furniture, drawer rails, cable and wiring management…) with any of the readers/antennas.
RFID readers/antennas create a reading zone that is symmetrical below and above the antenna. Putting metal below the antennas shrinks the size of the reading cloud both below and above the antenna.
