The IHZ4 is Identium’s current-generation four-port UHF RFID fixed reader, built around the Impinj E710 module with a double power amplifier circuit. It is the workhorse we recommend for dock doors, gates, conveyor lines and race-timing setups anywhere in India where read accuracy and range matter most. A WiFi-enabled version, the IHZ4(Wifi), and a POE-powered version are available on the same platform, so you can pick the connectivity that suits your site wiring.

For sites that need on-reader intelligence, Identium also offers the IHZ4AI, an AI-enabled reader variant on the same family — see the IHZ4AI at India RFID Store. The IHZ4 succeeds our earlier ICL4 and 401F fixed readers and ships ex-stock from New Delhi. Request a quote with your antenna count and site details, or buy online at India RFID Store: standard IHZ4, IHZ4(Wifi) or the POE version.
Who buys the IHZ4 in India
Buyers comparing 4-port UHF RFID fixed reader prices in India typically shortlist the IHZ4 for multi-antenna chokepoints: warehouse dock doors, factory gates, boom-barrier lanes and race-timing setups. One reader with four SMA ports can cover a full portal, which usually works out more economical per lane than stacking single-port units. System integrators specify it for RFID warehouse management and vehicle parking management because its three relay outputs drive boom barriers, lights and alarms directly, while Wiegand output connects to existing access-control panels. Sports-timing firms deploy it for race timing and event scoring, and factories run it on conveyor lines for production and WIP tracking. Final cost depends on the variant — standard, IHZ4(Wifi) or POE — plus antenna count and order volume, so request a manufacturer quote with your site details.
