Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PLT-RFID-EL6E-UHF-0-USB is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Manufacturer alignment (ThingMagic, a JADAK brand)
• Base product number consistency (PLT-RFID)
• Functional type (Read/Write capability)
• Interface specification (USB)
• Standards compliance (EPC, ISO 18000-6 support)
• Package classification (Module)
• Power output rating (27 dBm)

The substitute part PLT-RFID-EL7E meets these criteria as an active product within the same manufacturer family, maintaining functional and interface compatibility while providing current product status and availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The PLT-RFID-EL7E serves as the direct substitute for the obsolete PLT-RFID-EL6E-UHF-0-USB. Both modules maintain identical functional specifications across all critical parameters: read/write capability, USB interface, EPC and ISO 18000-6 standards compliance, and 27 dBm power output.

The primary distinction is product status: the EL6E is obsolete while the EL7E maintains active status, ensuring long-term component availability and manufacturer support. For new designs and ongoing system requirements, the PLT-RFID-EL7E is the appropriate selection. Both modules are RoHS compliant, meeting environmental regulatory requirements.
