The new tag has been proven in tests to perform reliably in high-reader density environments while maintaining long read ranges. The passive RFID tag has an IP67 rating and is EPC compliant, making it appropriate for both applications that demand high anti-collision rates and those in harsh environments - a good combination for tracking pigs.

The ear tag also offers a custom command set, offering security and easing communication between the transponder and RFID readers. Each tag contains an extended 96–bit EPC number, a 64-bit identifier, and 224 bits of programmable memory.
