Motion® Secures CID2 Certification for F5 Rugged Tablet and EasyConnect UHF RFID Long-Range Reader

Motion Computing recently announced that it has secured Class I, Division 2 (CID2) certification for the F5te Rugged Tablet & EasyConnect UHF RFID Long-Range Reader. With CID2 certification, Motion F5te Rugged Tablets & EasyConnect RFID Long-Range Readers can be used in new environments, in new ways, such as streamlining inspections at oil and gas companies and improving plant safety and integrity across process manufacturing.

“Our rugged technology solutions are purposely designed to improve mobile workflows across targeted verticals,” said Patty Tang, Manager, Product Marketing at Motion. “With the CID2 certification, we can bring the many benefits of our F5te tablet and RFID Reader into new environments. The basic needs of the workers in these environments are the same as our existing target verticals, so the transition is natural. We are confident these new end-users will embrace our technology and reap many productivity, safety and efficiency gains. ”
