Radio-frequency identification (RFID) enables fast, easy user authentication and access control for EV charging. But, with more than 60 RFID transponder technologies in use globally — along with smartphone-based credentialing systems based on Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) or Near-Field Communication (NFC) — it can be challenging for OEMs to serve all markets. AUTEL, a leading provider of DC and AC charging station infrastructure, maximized their market opportunities and simplified inventory management with a universal RFID reader.
