The certus Hybrid System integrates the proofed EM technology with the popular 13,56MHz RFID Technology into a single EAS System. Both technologies components are own developments from certus and allow simultaneous detection of security elements from both technologies. The EM part detects standard certus EM labels as well as EM labels from other suppliers, like e.g. 3M Tattle Tapes. The RFID part detects or reads all 13.56 Mhz based RFID labels, following ISO 15693.
The Hybrid security gate system runs two technologies simultaneously, ensuring all documents that have been secured with RFID chip and EM magnetic wire will cause alarm when going through the gates. Therefore, it will be the perfect solution for libraries that are moving from EM technology to RFID technology. At that time, even documents that are still using the EM magnetic wire are still secure
