In response to customer requests for "kits" of parts to make complete readers and for a system starter kit so we are now offering:


A single head RFID reader stack http://www.modelrailroadcontrolsystems.com/complete-rfid-reader-with-one-reader-head/
A dual Head RFID reader stack http://www.modelrailroadcontrolsystems.com/complete-rfid-reader-with-two-reader-heads/
And a complete starter system with a single head reader, a server, and a package of tags http://www.modelrailroadcontrolsystems.com/rfid-server-packaged-on-a-raspberry-pi-processor/

All you need to supply is Ethernet ports and cables!

This simplifies the logistics and research required to do a trial RFID implementation, everything is used as you expand your RFID system, no waste!
