Nedap proudly announces the latest addition to its TRANSIT Tag portfolio with the introduction of the Compact Button. With over 30 years of expertise in vehicle and driver identification solutions, Nedap has consistently set the industry standard. The TRANSIT Tag portfolio, renowned for its secure and reliable vehicle identification solutions, is being renewed to ensure decades of dependable service. The result is the Compact Button, featuring a next-generation chip that enhances performance and reliability, all within a new, slim, and sustainable design. This innovation is specifically designed for use in high-security environments and diverse applications, ranging from airports to industrial sites, ensuring smooth and secure traffic flow.
A new era for the TRANSIT Tag Portfolio
Nedap’s TRANSIT product portfolio includes a variety of tags designed for vehicle and driver identification. This range features the Booster tags, which identify both vehicles and drivers, the Heavy Duty Tag, designed for mounting on heavy vehicles, and a selection of windshield-mounted tags, with the well-known round Window Button leading the way. Recognizing the potential for innovation, Nedap has taken the opportunity to elevate this range by redesigning the iconic Window Button, bringing it into a new era of performance and design.
Introducing the Compact Button
The Compact Button is a newly designed tag for windshield mounting, providing convenient and secure vehicle access in high-security environments. This tag is perfectly suited for use in various applications, from airports to industrial sites. It seamlessly integrates with existing TRANSIT installations, offering identification capabilities at distances up to 15 meters when used with the TRANSIT Ultimate reader. With a design that is 50% smaller in size and thickness, the Compact Button is less obtrusive and more aesthetically pleasing, making it an ideal choice for environments where discretion and appearance matter.
Key advantages for Security Professionals
The Compact Button is a cutting-edge long-range vehicle identification tag based on advanced semi-active RFID technology, designed to enhance security operations with several standout features:
- User Activation Functionality: The Compact Button offers the flexibility of user activation, allowing drivers to choose when the tag is active for identification. This optional feature is especially useful in situations like fee-based access or high-traffic areas, where precise control over identification can enhance security and efficiency. Alternatively, the tag can operate continuously, providing seamless and automatic vehicle identification.
- Windshield Mounting: Designed for easy windshield mounting, the Compact Button uses a strong suction pad that attaches securely without obstructing the driver’s view. This ensures a straightforward installation process and reliable operation.
- Enhanced Security with Read-Only Programming: Each Compact Button is programmed with a unique security code and tag ID, which are laser engraved on the back. This Read-Only programming ensures that the tag cannot be altered, providing a robust layer of security.
- Sustainable Design: The Compact Button features a replaceable battery with an 8-year lifespan, underscoring Nedap’s commitment to sustainability. Produced in The Netherlands, the tag is crafted using eco-friendly practices that emphasize sustainable sourcing, responsible processing, and ethical labor. These efforts help reduce the tag’s environmental impact while ensuring long-term reliability.
“The Compact Button is a significant leap forward for the TRANSIT Tag portfolio. Its compact design, advanced functionality, and sustainable features make it a worthy successor to our Window Button. We are excited to bring this next-generation solution to the market.” Edwin Grobbink, Product Manager at Nedap
