I'm in search of suggestions for an economical RFID system that could be used to track IT assets including computers, printers, network switches, etc. Initial supply of tags needed would be about 2,000 and then approximately 500 annually. Would prefer to use thermal tags so that barcode could be printed but not totally necessary.

For readers the staff have handheld devices so we are able to equip them with RFID Reader Cards.

Not so certain what would suffice as middleware.

Advice?

Thank You.

More info needed:

Is all the IT gear accessible: can you get within inches of everything?

Do you need long range capabilities? Walk past a pallet loaded with gizmos and read all tags without moving thingss around?

Will the gear be tagged for years, or is this retail inventory coming and going rapidly?

Yes...all assets could be easily reached even physically.

No long range capability.

Most assets would be used from 1 to 5 years.
