RFID FDX-B Animal Ear Tag: A Comprehensive Introduction
1. Product Overview
Our RFID FDX-B Animal Ear Tag is a cutting-edge electronic identification solution designed for livestock and animal management. Crafted from high-quality TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane), it offers exceptional durability, flexibility, and resistance to harsh environmental conditions. The ear tag is circular with a diameter of 30mm, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit for animals such as cattle, pigs, sheep, and horses. While the standard color is yellow, we provide customization options including green, blue, red, purple, white, orange, and pink to meet specific branding or organizational needs.
Each tag is ICAR-certified, adhering to international standards for animal identification, and is packed in quantities of 200 pieces per PP bag, with 10 bags per carton for efficient storage and transportation.
2. Key Features and Benefits
- Material Excellence: TPU construction ensures waterproof, shockproof, and chemical-resistant properties, making it suitable for long-term use in challenging agricultural environments.
- Customization: Choose from a range of colors to streamline herd management, track different groups, or enhance visual identification.
- ICAR Compliance: Certified by the International Committee for Animal Recording (ICAR), the tag meets global standards for traceability and data integrity.
- Secure Packaging: The 100pcs/PP bag and 10-bag/carton packaging protects tags during transit and storage, preventing damage or loss.
3. Frequency and Operating Temperature
- Frequency: The FDX-B ear tag operates at 134.2 kHz, a low-frequency (LF) band optimized for reliable readability in dense environments like animal herds. This frequency ensures stable communication with compatible readers, even through body tissues or metal obstacles.
- Working Temperature: The tag functions efficiently within a temperature range of -30°C to +50°C, making it suitable for extreme climates. Its storage temperature extends to -30°C to +70°C, ensuring long-term durability.
4. Difference Between FDX-B and HDX
Both FDX-B and HDX are RFID technologies used in animal identification, but they differ significantly in communication protocols, frequencies, and applications:
Aspect |
FDX-B (Full Duplex) |
HDX (Half Duplex) |
Communication Mode |
Full duplex (simultaneous two-way communication) |
Half duplex (one-way communication at a time) |
Frequency |
134.2 kHz (LF) |
13.56 MHz (HF) |
Read Range |
Up to 75 cm (depending on reader and environment) |
Up to 100 cm (longer range due to higher frequency) |
Data Transfer Speed |
Slower (due to continuous signal processing) |
Faster (nearly twice the rate of FDX-B) |
Protocol Compliance |
ISO 11784/11785 (animal-specific standards) |
ISO 11784/11785 (compatible with animal systems) |
Memory Capacity |
512-bit (read/write) or 256-bit (read-only) |
128-bit (read-only) |
Use Cases |
Long-term tracking, health monitoring, and detailed data storage |
Breeding management, short-range inventory checks |
FDX-B Advantages:
- Ideal for applications requiring continuous data updates (e.g., health records, feeding schedules).
- Better penetration through materials, ensuring reliable reads in crowded or confined spaces.
HDX Advantages:
- Faster data transmission, suitable for high-throughput scenarios (e.g., sorting or auctioning).
- Longer read range, useful for automated systems in large-scale operations.
5. Applications
Our FDX-B ear tags are widely used in:
- Livestock breeding and management.
- Dairy and poultry farms for tracking milk production, vaccination history, and growth rates.
- Veterinary clinics for patient identification and treatment records.
- Research facilities for behavioral studies and disease monitoring.
6. Conclusion
The TPU-made RFID FDX-B Animal Ear Tag combines robust construction, customizable features, and ICAR certification to deliver a reliable and efficient identification solution. Its 134.2 kHz frequency and wide temperature range ensure performance in diverse environments, while the FDX-B protocol supports comprehensive data management.
By understanding the differences between FDX-B and HDX, users can select the optimal technology for their specific needs, ensuring seamless integration into animal management systems.
