Sirit Introduces its INfinity Micro



TORONTO, April 4 /CNW/ - Sirit Inc. (TSX: SI), a leading provider of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, introduces the latest member of its INfinity line of embedded RFID modules, the INfinity Micro. Derived from the architecture of the Plug-n-Play high frequency (HF) modules launched in early March 2006, the INfinity Micro is designed to address the increasing trend of mass market devices towards smaller and thinner form-factors.

Supporting a wide spectrum of protocols including ISO 14443A/B, ISO 15693, ISO 18000-3, INSIDE PicoTag(TM), HID iClass(R), Tagsys C320, FeliCa(TM), and eNFC, the INfinity Micro is ideally suited for a wide array of secure transaction applications such as cashless payments, access control and identity or product verification.

"The INfinity Micro is a natural evolution from our line of Plug-n-Play readers particularly where a customer has evaluated and proven their use case and is ready to move to an embedded solution," commented Mike Allocco, Vice President, RF Solutions, Sirit Inc. "Since the architecture is exactly the same as the SDIO and USB readers, our customers can be assured that the performance of their product will remain unchanged."

Along with this latest offering, Sirit has entered into a collaboration agreement with AirGATE Technologies, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the X-Change Corporation (OTC BB: XCHC), to provide the INfinity Micro module for use in the law enforcement industry and Homeland Security applications.

AirGATE has been using Sirit's INfinity 166 module in its RFID enabled telephone solution being provided through SECURUS to correctional facilities nationwide and plans to migrate the solution to utilize the new INfinity Micro module. The RFID enabled phone unit reads the inmate identification from the inmate wristband when a phone call is made.

"We are impressed with the performance of the new Sirit INfinity Micro module which is well suited for our telephone solution due to its low power requirement and small form factor," commented Mike Sherrif, President and CEO of AirGATE Technologies, Inc. "With over 3,100 correctional facilities in North America and US inmates alone making over 1,000,000 phone calls per day, it's imperative that we can deliver a reliable solution. Working with a market leader like Sirit, will be a key part to ensuring our ultimate success."
