Chip Models

UCODE DNA

High-security UHF chip with 3,072-bit user memory and AES-128 encryption. Ideal for high-value asset management, brand protection, and anti-counterfeiting.

UCODE® G2iM / G2iM+

Cost-effective UHF chip with high sensitivity, 320–640-bit user memory, and long-distance reading. Widely used in logistics, access control, and general UHF applications.

UCODE 8

Basic EPC Gen 2 chip with no user memory. For simple identification and general asset tracking with low security requirements.

UCODE 8m

UCODE 8 with 32-bit user memory added. For basic tracking that also needs to store a small amount of identification data.

Applications

• High-value asset management & tracking
• Brand protection & anti-counterfeiting
• Logistics & supply chain visibility
• Access control & security
• Retail inventory management
• Industrial & warehouse automation

❓ FAQs:

Q1. What is UHF RFID and how is it different from NFC?

UHF (860–960MHz) offers read ranges up to several meters for bulk scanning in logistics and warehouses. NFC (13.56MHz) is short-range (2–10cm) for tap-based access control and identification.

Q2. Which UCODE chip should I choose?

UCODE DNA for AES-128 high-security. G2iM/G2iM+ for long-range logistics tracking. UCODE 8 for basic low-cost identification. UCODE 8m for basic tracking with small data storage.

Q3. Can UHF RFID cards be read by smartphones?

No. UHF requires a dedicated reader or handheld scanner — it is designed for infrastructure-based scanning, not consumer tap interactions.

Q4. What read range can I expect?

Typically 1–8 meters depending on chip, antenna, and reader power.

Q5. Can I customize the card with my branding?

Yes. Full custom printing on both sides — logo, serial number, QR code. Multiple materials and finishes available.

Q6. Do you offer OEM or white-label manufacturing?

Yes. Full OEM/ODM service — your chip, your design, your brand, no mention of us.
