Cables & Connectors with RFID Chips/Sensors

The Stuttgart-based Lapp Group has presented its latest invention – cable and connector technology featuring RFID. Under the motto "Lapp products learn how to talk", the company presents an impressive presentation on how data can be transferred without contact and beyond the line of sight using Radio Frequency Identification. After extensive research activities, the company is now in a position to integrate minute RFID chips or RFID sensors into cables and connectors during the production process. This makes it possible to read out data for identification or inventory purposes. Measurement logs can also be stored –and it is even possible to carry out temperature and moisture measurements. The range of possible uses for RFID in cable and connector technology is very extensive. The products speak – and tell customers exactly what they want to know.
