Overview
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) are two wireless technologies used for different purposes, primarily focused on communication and tracking.
BLE is a wireless communication protocol designed for short-range, low-power connectivity. It operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and is commonly used in applications where energy efficiency is crucial, such as fitness trackers, smartwatches, and wireless earbuds. BLE is ideal for transmitting small amounts of data over short distances, typically up to 100 meters. Devices utilizing BLE are designed to be energy-efficient, enabling long battery life in devices that require continuous or frequent communication. BLE supports beacon technology, used for indoor navigation, asset tracking, and proximity marketing.
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a technology used for tracking and identification purposes. It consists of two main components: an RFID tag and a reader. RFID tags contain information that can be transmitted to the reader via radio waves, and they can be either passive (powered by the reader’s signal) or active (with an internal battery). RFID is used in various applications such as inventory management, access control, and supply chain tracking. Unlike BLE, RFID can operate over a wider range of distances, depending on the frequency used, from a few centimeters to several meters.
Both technologies are crucial for modern IoT systems but serve distinct roles: BLE for communication and RFID for tracking and identification.
Below are listed all of GAO Tek’s BLE & RFID products.
