RFID MOLDED CONNECTOR TRACKING SYSTEM AND METHOD
A Radio Frequency Identification (“RFID”) tracking system includes an electrical connector and an RFID transponder is disposed within the connector. The transponder configured to transmit a first signal to a transmitting and receiving device and receive a second signal from the transmitting and receiving device.
1 . A Radio Frequency Identification (“RFID”) tracking system comprising:
an electrical connector; and
an RFID transponder disposed within the connector, the transponder configured to transmit a first signal to a transmitting and receiving device and receive a second signal from the transmitting and receiving device.
2 . The RFID tracking system of claim 1 , further comprising:
the RFID transponder molded within the connector below an exterior surface of the connector.
3 . The RFID tracking system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a metallic foil disposed on a back side of the RFID transponder.
4 . The RFID tracking system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a portable adaptive device having a processor and customizable interface enabled with an application configured for transmitting and receiving to and from the RFID transponder.
5 . A method for identifying an electrical asset and managing maintenance and warranty information of the electrical asset, the method comprising:
imbedding an RFID transponder in a connector in communication with an electronic device;
transmitting a first signal to the imbedded RFID transponder; and
receiving a second signal from the RFID transponder.
6 . The method for identifying an electrical asset and managing maintenance and warranty information of the electrical asset of claim 5 , further comprising:
molding the RFID transponder within a connector below an exterior surface of the connector, the connector in electrical communication with the electrical asset.
7 . The method for identifying an electrical asset and managing maintenance and warranty information of the electrical asset of claim 6 , further comprising:
positioning a metallic foil on a back side of the RFID transponder.
