CISC RAIN Xplorer Inline
Performance and Conformance Tests
The Xplorer series RAIN RFID + NFC test systems are the essential tools for testing RAIN RFID and NFC hardware and application set up. From ICs to inlays, tags, readers and applications, Xplorer series test systems cover all product development phases from R&D to pre-conformance and performance testing. Through our test systems we ensure improved quality, reliability, and interoperability of your RAIN RFID and NFC hardware.
NFC Xplorer
The CISC NFC Xplorer is a compact, high-quality test system, developed for NFC and HF device measurements including performance and conformance tests. The Hardware unit provides two high-ohm input ports and one 50-ohm output port, which makes the NFC Xplorer a device supporting measurements according ISO with full compensation of DUT influence. The device is capable of communicating with HF RFID cards and NFC devices, and an analyzer of the air interface communication. Signal recording is done in real-time with no limitation of the recording time.

RAIN Xplorer
The CISC RAIN Xplorer is a unique RFID test product developed for convenient tag frequency sensitivity, communication range, and backscatter measurements. The RFID tester is designed for open area tests and measurements in an RF-controlled environment using portable or fixed RF test chambers. The system is supplied with software and a reference tag for self-calibration. The test equipment is controlled using a graphical user interface (GUI) with an additional application programming interface (API) for the development of user-defined test sequences within standard development environments.
Key Features:
- Basis RAIN RFID frequency range from 800 MHz to 1 GHz
- Extended RAIN RFID frequency range
from 700 MHz to 1.3 GHz - Tag and Reader Performance tests
- Tag and Reader Conformance tests
- Sniffer mode to analyze the communication
between reader and tags - ETSI EN 302 208 reader and tag tests
(RED compliance/CE marking)
From Lab Innovation
to Real-World Performance
TAG Performance
The CISC Xplorer delivers industry-leading performance by precisely evaluating every individual tag within a high-density population—whether isolated or stacked—in real-world retail environments according to global TIPP standards.
TAG Production tester
The CISC RAIN Xplorer provides a comprehensive technical breakdown of tag performance by precisely measuring critical metrics—including read/write range, activation thresholds, and backscatter power—across all frequencies and radiation patterns to ensure optimal hardware reliability.
Reader Performance
The CISC RAIN Xplorer serves as a high-precision reader tester by utilizing a fully configurable tag emulator to accurately measure transmit power, receiver sensitivity, and timing tolerance in strict accordance with industry-standard performance specifications.
Sniffer and Conformance
The CISC RAIN Xplorer serves as a powerful diagnostic and compliance tool by combining a configurable Tag Emulator for precise reader sensitivity testing with a real-time Sniffer that captures, decodes, and logs the entire communication stream between readers and tags.
RAIN RFID Measurement Chambers
All-in-one Solution for RFID Measurement and Tests Requiring
an Anechoic Environment
Tag and Reader Testing
Including ETSI EN 302 208 for CE Marking
and TIPP / ARC Compliance
The mobile CISC RF Test Chamber has been developed for testing RAIN RFID devices for performance and conformance including ETSI and TIPP / ARC. The high-quality test chamber serves as an anechoic test environment. Through its shielding it excludes interference from outside and ensures highest accuracy together with its premium RF absorbers on the insides of the chamber. It is optimized for the frequency band of 700 MHz – 5 GHz and is equipped with wheels to be mobile and flexible in office buildings. The CISC RF Test Chamber can be equipped with a variety of test tools of the CISC RAIN Xplorer series.
