TSL 1153 Bluetooth Wearable UHF RFID RAIN Reader

TSL 1153 Bluetooth® UHF RFID – High-performance data collection solution for modern enterprises

In the era of digital transformation, automating processes for identification, asset management, and data tracking has become essential for every business. One of the pioneering technologies enabling this transformation is RFID (Radio frequency identification).

Among the world’s leading RFID devices, the TSL 1153 Bluetooth® Wearable UHF RFID reader stands out — a compact, intelligent, and versatile solution developed by Technology Solutions (UK) Ltd – TSL®, a renowned brand from the United Kingdom.

Designed to maximize data collection efficiency and operational performance, the TSL 1153 combines powerful performance, a wearable ergonomic design, and high compatibility across multiple platforms. It delivers seamless data capture experiences across industries such as retail, logistics, manufacturing, healthcare, asset management, and supply chain operations.

Compact design – Flexibility for every work environment

The TSL 1153 is built for convenience and mobility. Lightweight and ergonomically designed, users can wear it on the wrist or mount it on a handheld device comfortably throughout a work shift.

Its wireless, hands-free design allows operators to move easily in fast-paced environments like warehouses, retail stores, hospitals, and production lines. The robust and durable build ensures reliable operation even under demanding conditions.

Additionally, the device is energy-optimized to extend battery life without compromising RFID read/write performance.

Exceptional RFID read and write performance

The TSL 1153 is engineered to read and write EPC Class 1 Gen 2 (ISO18000-6C) tags – the most widely adopted standard in UHF RFID technology today. Powered by a high-end RFID engine optimized by TSL, the reader offers ultra-fast tag reading speeds, high accuracy, and the ability to process hundreds of tags within seconds.

It also supports stable data writing performance, enabling users to quickly update tag information such as product details or asset status. With its advanced UHF antenna design, the TSL 1153 delivers extended read ranges, ideal for both large-scale inventory environments and high-speed workflows.

Integrated high-performance 2D barcode scanner

Beyond RFID, the TSL 1153 features a built-in 2D barcode scanner for dual data collection. This enables users to capture both RFID and barcode data in one seamless operation reducing time and boosting productivity.

This dual capability is particularly valuable in retail, logistics, and warehouse management, where both technologies coexist. Operators can easily switch between RFID and barcode modes without needing additional devices.

Stable and convenient bluetooth® wireless connectivity

One of the TSL 1153’s standout advantages is its stable wireless Bluetooth® communication. The device pairs effortlessly with smartphones, tablets, PCs, or enterprise handhelds, enabling fast and easy deployment.

Once paired, users can instantly read, write, manage, and sync data in real-time. The integrated bluetooth® low energy (BLE) technology enhances power efficiency, ensuring continuous operation with minimal downtime.

Cross-platform compatibility – Seamless Integration

The TSL 1153 supports iOS, Android™, and Windows operating systems, providing broad compatibility across enterprise ecosystems.

Whether using an iPad, iPhone, Android tablet, or Windows PC, the TSL 1153 ensures smooth connectivity and consistent performance.

This makes it an ideal RFID solution not only for large enterprises but also for small and medium-sized businesses seeking a simple, flexible, and scalable data collection tool.

Apple MFi certification – Quality and reliability assured

The TSL 1153 carries the prestigious Apple MFi (Made for iPhone/iPad) certification a mark of excellence awarded to accessories meeting Apple’s stringent performance, safety, and compatibility standards.

This ensures seamless and reliable operation with Apple devices such as iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touch, offering professionals a trusted solution for RFID data collection within iOS environments.

ASCII 2 protocol – Powerful and flexible programming interface

A highlight of the TSL 1153 is its support for the ASCII 2 Protocol, a powerful yet developer-friendly communication standard.

This protocol enables the reader to execute multiple actions internally via simple ASCII commands. Developers can use these commands to control tag reading/writing, filter data, or perform advanced operations without relying on a host processor.

This approach shortens integration time, accelerates data processing, and reduces software overhead transforming the TSL 1153 into an intelligent component of an enterprise RFID ecosystem.

Real-world applications of the TSL 1153

Thanks to its mobility, accuracy, and versatility, the TSL 1153 is widely used across numerous industries, including:

• Retail: inventory management, in-store product tracking, and loss prevention.

• Warehousing & Logistics: shipment tracking, container management, and inventory optimization.

• Manufacturing: material tracking, production line monitoring, and equipment management.

• Healthcare: medical device and medication tracking, patient file management, and error reduction.

• Education & Events: smart ID systems for student or attendee management and asset tracking.

With the TSL 1153, businesses can elevate their data management systems to a new level accurate, transparent, and efficient.
