Overview
EAS detection from the ceiling — no floor, no pedestal.
When the entrance is too wide for standard pedestals and floor-concealed isn't an option, Overhead 2.0 moves everything to the ceiling. The central antenna (console + reader + power) sits overhead; satellite antennas extend coverage across the opening width. Motion sensor included to trigger the read zone only when someone's passing through. Built for retailers already committed to RFID — this is RFID-based EAS, not RF.
