Savi Portable Deployment Kit

The Savi Portable Deployment Kit (PDK) provides a complete active RFID solution for real-time, end-to-end visibility of goods and critical assets moving through the supply chain at any location and in any environment.

SEAMLESS · POWERFUL · SECURE

Rugged, Streamlined System

The Savi PDK includes the laptop, handheld computer, mobile reader, printer, software and communications equipment needed for asset tracking, and cargo and personnel manifesting, in a self-contained, durable carrying case. The PDK allows DoD Movement Control Teams (MCT) to quickly set up mobile operations, automating the collection, aggregation and deaggregation of cargo and passenger manifest data. The PDK also enables active RFID tag read and write capabilities, and prints Military Shipping Labels (MSLs) with updated shipment information

Ease of Use

The PDK is operational right out of the box – no additional software configuration is required onsite. Customers can also load military software applications such as TC-AIMSII and/or CMOS to the PDK. A GPS unit captures the PDK’s latitude and longitude coordinates. These coordinates and the tag data collected by the PDK are then communicated to Savi SmartChain® Site Manager and forwarded to the RF-ITV Network via an Iridium Modem.

Changing the Standard

Active RFID and ISO 18000-7 Active
RFID technology revolutionizes the identification, monitoring and tracking of valuable assets and shipments. Savi helped drive the creation of the active RFID ISO 18000-7 standard to support active RFID interoperability on a worldwide basis. ISO 18000-7 has been adopted worldwide by commercial enterprises and defense organizations. Savi products such as the PDK are built to support the ISO 18000-7 protocol and drive effective and accurate real-time tracking.
