What is an EM Antenna?
EM – Electro Magetic
EM antennas and EM technology is a niche solution that works great for libraries and DIY stores. It has the advantage of using small, thin adhesive labels which can be deactivated and reactivated. The discreet security labels are read by a security scanner, allowing books to be checked out on deactivation and the later checked back in when the EM label is reactivated.
How does it work?
Rather than using removable tags, EM systems use adhesive labels inside of which is a magnetic strip containing iron. This strip is detected when it passes between a pair of EM antennas. One antenna acts as the transmitter and the other as the receiver. To deactivate the label, a specific type of strong magnetic field is passed through the strip so that it no longer triggers the alarm.
