Chainway UHF RFID Module (1-Port)

Introduction to Chainway Single-Port UHF RFID Modules

In the digital era, as businesses place increasing emphasis on accuracy, speed, and efficiency in asset management, UHF RFID technology has emerged as one of the most advanced solutions available.

Unlike traditional barcodes, UHF RFID offers simultaneous multi-tag reading, flexible read ranges, robust durability, and seamless integration into various systems.

Chainway, a leading brand in the AutoID and RFID industry, has launched a series of compact yet powerful single-port UHF RFID modules: the CM-5N and CM-3N. Built on the Impinj E510 and E310 chips, these modules combine cutting-edge technology with superior read/write performance, while maintaining ultra-small dimensions, low power consumption, and high stability.

This article provides a detailed overview of Chainway single-port UHF RFID modules, helping you gain a comprehensive understanding and select the right solution for your business.

Overview of UHF RFID Technology

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a wireless identification technology that enables readers to capture data from RFID tags without direct contact. UHF RFID (Ultra High Frequency), operating in the 860–960 MHz range, is distinguished by:

• Simultaneous multi-tag reading (anti-collision)

• Long read ranges, from a few metres to over 10 metres depending on the antenna

• High read speeds, ideal for production lines and logistics

• Support for international standards such as EPCglobal Gen2 and ISO18000-6C

Chainway’s single-port UHF RFID modules leverage the power of Impinj Gen2X, delivering faster speeds, higher sensitivity, and greater accuracy in tag reading. Their compact design makes them particularly well-suited for integration into handheld devices, card issuers, medical equipment, and other smart management systems.

Chainway CM-5N UHF RFID Module (1-Port)

The CM-5N is one of Chainway’s newest UHF modules, powered by the Impinj E510 chip. Despite its ultra-compact size of just 31.0 x 19.0 x 3.1 mm, the CM-5N delivers powerful performance.

• Chipset: Impinj E510

• Port: 1-Port

• Dimensions: 31.0 x 19.0 x 3.1 mm

• Performance: Supports Impinj Gen2X, ensuring fast and stable tag reading

Key Features:

• Ultra-compact design, easy to integrate

• Low power consumption, ideal for battery-powered or handheld devices

• Excellent electromagnetic interference resistance

• Efficient heat dissipation for reliable, long-term operation

Applications: Best suited for short-range reading/writing scenarios such as container logistics, healthcare, card issuance, and all-in-one integrated machines.

 

Chainway CM-3N UHF RFID Module (1-Port)

The CM-3N is built on the Impinj E310 chip, offering an optimal balance of performance and cost. It is an ideal choice for short-range RFID applications or projects requiring efficiency at lower budgets.

• Chipset: Impinj E310

• Port: 1-Port

• Dimensions: 31.0 x 19.0 x 3.1 mm

• Performance: Supports Impinj Gen2X, enabling accurate short-range tag reading

Key Features:

• Compact, lightweight, and highly integrable

• Low power consumption, reducing operational costs

• Reliable and stable in diverse environments

• Same advanced interference resistance and heat dissipation as the CM-5N

Applications: Perfect for small-scale asset management, container tracking, healthcare equipment monitoring, and cost-sensitive RFID projects.

 

Shared Advantages of Chainway Single-Port UHF RFID Modules

Both the CM-5N and CM-3N are designed to deliver flexibility and efficiency in RFID applications. Their standout advantages include:

• Ultra-small size (31.0 x 19.0 x 3.1 mm), fitting handheld devices, card issuers, and integrated systems

• Low power consumption for extended operation in portable solutions

• Strong resistance to electromagnetic interference, ensuring stability in complex environments

• Effective heat dissipation for long-lasting durability

• Easy integration into mobile, fixed, or desktop systems

• Compliance with global standards (EPCglobal Gen2, ISO18000-6C) for worldwide compatibility

Applications of Chainway Single-Port UHF RFID Modules

Thanks to their compact design and robust performance, the CM-5N and CM-3N are widely applicable across industries, including:

• Logistics & Warehousing: Container management, short-range cargo tracking

• Healthcare: Monitoring medical equipment, patient records, and pharmaceuticals

• Card Issuance: Fast, secure personalisation and issuance of cards

• Manufacturing: Production line management and product tracking

• Retail: Inventory control, loss prevention, and streamlined operations

• Education & Libraries: Efficient management of books and learning resources

 

Comparison

• CM-5N (E510): Delivers stronger performance, ideal for applications requiring high speed and accuracy.

• CM-3N (E310): More cost-effective, suitable for small to medium applications or budget-sensitive projects.
