The New Chainway R3S: Compact Design, Flexible RFID Deployment

The R3S Desktop RFID Reader features a compact all-in-one design with versatile connectivity to reduce space and connectivity constraints, making RFID implementation more flexible. High-performance components, precise tag reading, and broad system compatibility make the R3S a dependable choice for retail checkout, jewelry management, ID and archive workflows, and quality inspection.



All-in-One Integration, Easier Installation
The R3S integrates the reader and antenna into a single, compact unit, further reducing its footprint. It adapts seamlessly to desktops, counters, and service windows, and can be embedded directly into self-service kiosks. With this all-in-one design, the R3S minimizes cabling and space requirements, simplifying deployment and making RFID adoption more accessible and flexible.
 
 
One-Press to Read
Built for faster workflows, the R3S includes a top-mounted Scan key for one-press read activation. Users can press it to trigger reads, minimizing repetitive terminal interactions. In retail checkout and inventory counts, this helps streamline workflows and improve efficiency.
 
 
Versatile Connectivity for Multiple Terminals
With USB Type-C, RJ45, and a DC power input, the R3S connects easily to PCs, desktop terminals, tablets, and self-service kiosks. From plug-and-play USB to RJ45 with Ethernet and PoE+ support—or DC input for stable power—the R3S simplifies integration across a wide range of deployment setups.



High-Performance RFID, Complete Reads
The R3S leverages the Impinj E Series chipset with Gen2X support to deliver high sensitivity and reliable performance in dense tag environments, delivering consistent real-world performance with 70+ tags per scan. With a read range of over 100 cm and 30-step adjustable output power, the R3S enables fine-tuned control to match different requirements across various scenarios.



Full Compatibility for Fast Integration
Compatibility across Windows, Android, and iOS, backed by comprehensive SDK and developer documentation, simplifies integration and accelerates deployment. From front-end desktop terminals to back-end self-service systems, the R3S reduces adaptation costs and speeds RFID adoption across workflows.



Intuitive Feedback with Dual Indicators
The R3S features both an LED indicator and a buzzer, providing clear, real-time status feedback during the reading process. Whether performing single reads or high-speed batch scanning, users get instant confirmation, reducing errors and ensuring a smoother, more efficient checkout and inventory experience.

With its compact design, versatile interfaces, and precise, stable reads, the R3S helps organizations simplify RFID adoption and improve efficiency across operations.
