A Radio Frequency Identification Tag (RFID tag) is an electronic tag that exchanges data with a RFID reader through radio waves.
Most RFID tags are made up of at least two main parts. The first is an an antenna, which receives radio frequency (RF) waves. The second is an integrated circuit (IC), which is used for processing and storing data, as well as modulating and demodulating the radio waves received/sent by the antenna.
A RFID tag is also known as a RFID chip.

IBC Hard Tags have been designed to provide superior performance and high durability on a variety of surfaces at a low cost. Utilizing the latest generation of Gen 2 silicon supporting 512 bits of user memory within a small, durable form factor, IBC Durable Asset Tags are suitable for tracking a wide variety of assets. The tags are tuned for a wide frequency band to include both FCC and ETSI regions and is optimized primarily for non-metal surfaces, such as reusable plastic containers and wooden and plastic pallets. These are are optimized specifically for metal surfaces such as metal pallets, ULDs, and other metal assets.
