The Honeywell IH45 is a Bluetooth sled carrying a $1200 MSRP. Review its physical specifications and architectural requirements vs Nextwaves native cloud endpoints.
Technical verdict
Do not evaluate IH45 by list price alone. Its strongest fit is a project that already uses Bluetooth 5.0, BLE, has time for RF tuning, and accepts extra middleware work. If the engineering team needs open APIs, realtime data, and faster edge-to-cloud deployment, Nextwaves NR155 is the stronger replacement path to evaluate.

Deployment review
Fixed UHF RFID projects that already use Bluetooth 5.0, BLE and have time for RF tuning.
Do not compare device price only; total cost depends on accessories, software, and integration.
IP54, Li-Poly 3.8V 4000mAh, 190 x 79 x 154 mm, and 450 g (without mobile) must match the site layout.
Plan for middleware, SDK work, duplicate filtering, and business-event mapping.

These answers help purchasing and engineering teams review cost, integration, and deployment risk.
The Honeywell IH45 is an ergonomic UHF RFID sled designed to piggyback on compatible mobile computers. Operating across 865-868 MHz / 902-928 MHz blocks, it conforms to EPC Gen2 V2, ISO 18000-63 logic for commercial inventory sweeping.
Hardware configurations sit around $1200 MSRP. The final hardware budget must include the sled, replacement Li-Poly 3.8V 4000mAh batteries, gang chargers, and the mandatory secondary smartphone or terminal.
Nextwaves hardware features integrated processors that run open REST/MQTT protocols natively. Developers achieve a direct web-to-cloud path without compiling separate Android Bluetooth bridging software.
The bare sled weighs 450 g (without mobile) and measures 190 x 79 x 154 mm. It features an IP54 ingress protection rating, preventing mild dust accumulation and splashing within sheltered retail floors.
The core data link relies entirely on Bluetooth 5.0, BLE protocols. Consequently, the sled never talks directly to your IT networks; it communicates strictly via its host Android or iOS phone interface.
Assembly dictates sliding the host terminal into a mechanical bracket. Software integration requires utilizing Honeywell's SDK libraries to instruct the phone to send GATT profile commands to trigger the reader module.
The internal interrogator can sustain roughly ~900 tags/sec sweeps. Firmware updates or specialized configuration changes must be deployed over-the-air (OTA) via the coupled mobile device.
In a traditional workflow, developers must build Android/iOS applications to act as middleware, wrapping Bluetooth 5.0, BLE reads into HTTPS packets before relaying them to an external CRM.
A base manufacturer warranty covers standard defects for 12 months. Maintenance contracts for sleds are complex because operators must individually manage the service life of both the sled and the coupled phone.
A linearly polarized integrated antenna broadcasts scanning energy over the 865-868 MHz / 902-928 MHz ranges. This orientation achieves greater range but requires operators to align the sled explicitly with typical tag placements.
