Mindware EAS RF Security Systems
Radio Frequency (RF) Systems are the most widely used systems in Point of Sale and Stop Shoplifting. A label - basically a miniature, disposable electronic circuit, an antenna -- attached to a product responds to a specific frequency emitted by a transmitter antenna (usually one pedestal of the entry/exit gate). The response from the label is then picked up by an adjacent receiver antenna (the other pedestal).
EAS RF Security is protection for your shop or retail chain and the word itself means Electronic Article Surveillance. An EAS RF Security system usually consists of EAS RF Antennas and EAS RF Tags or labels. These components signal to each other if they come too close. For instance, if someone is trying to get a tagged item through the antennas, e.g. stealing it. Protecting your store with EAS Security is an easy way to decrease external shrinkage. The EAS antennas are in themselves deterrent for shoplifters and reports show that EAS Security systems can decrease external shrinkage with 50-90%.
