"The R110Xi HF capitalises on key areas where the high frequency technology outshines UHF, such as greater data storage and available memory, flexibility to read in proximity to materials such as liquid and metals and faster encoding and printing of labels".

"The R110X i HF also is ideally suited for item-level asset tracking of videos or books, and for efficient ticketing in transit and entertainment industry applications".
