Description
Nedap 9234357 uPASS Go FCC Long-Range UHF RFID Reader
Up to 33-Foot Vehicle Identification Range | OSDP v2 | Wiegand | RS-485 | Ethernet | Mount Set Included
The Nedap 9234357 uPASS Go (FCC) is a long-range UHF RFID reader designed for automatic vehicle identification and secure vehicle access control. Using passive UHF RFID technology, the Nedap uPASS Go can identify compatible credentials from distances of up to 10 meters (33 feet) when used with the Nedap UHF Windshield Tag, helping drivers gain authorized access without manually presenting a credential to a close-range reader.
Designed for parking facilities, gated communities, employee entrances, university campuses and other controlled vehicle access points, the uPASS Go combines long-range vehicle identification with an adjustable reading range, circular antenna polarization and multiple access control interfaces. The FCC version, Nedap part number 9234357, operates within the UHF frequency range configured for applicable regional requirements and includes the standard mounting set.
The uPASS Go supports EPC Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C passive UHF credentials and integrates with leading access control platforms through Wiegand, RS-485, Ethernet and OSDP v2. OSDP v2 support includes Secure Channel communication, providing a modern integration option for access control systems requiring secure reader-to-controller communications.

Hands-Free Vehicle Access
Unlike short-range access control readers that require drivers to stop and present a card, the Nedap uPASS Go is designed to identify compatible passive UHF vehicle credentials from a distance.
This can improve traffic flow and driver convenience at controlled entrances while allowing the existing access control system to make the final access decision. Because compatible passive UHF credentials require no battery, credential maintenance can also be simplified.

Nedap uPASS Reader Comparison
The uPASS family is designed around passive UHF RFID vehicle identification. Choosing the appropriate reader depends primarily on the required read range and application.
| Reader | Technology | Typical Role | Consider When... |
|---|---|---|---|
| uPASS Go | Passive UHF RFID | Long-range vehicle identification up to 33 ft* | You need a cost-effective long-range reader for parking, gates or vehicle access |
| uPASS Target | Passive UHF RFID | Extended-range vehicle identification | The application requires greater passive UHF identification distance |
| uPASS Reach | Passive UHF RFID | Previous-generation long-range reader | Discontinued — uPASS Go is the successor |
*Maximum read range depends on the credential, reader installation and operating environment.
Choosing a Credential for the uPASS Go
The reader's actual identification distance depends heavily on the selected credential and how it is installed on the vehicle. Nedap offers passive UHF credentials designed for different vehicle and mounting requirements.
- UHF Windshield Tag: Designed for vehicle windshield mounting and provides the maximum specified uPASS Go read range of up to 33 feet.
- UHF Exterior Tag: Designed for exterior vehicle mounting where windshield construction or metallic solar film makes interior windshield identification unsuitable.
- Other EPC Gen 2 credentials: Compatibility and achievable range should be confirmed for the intended application.
Installation & Ordering Guidance
Reader placement, credential selection and site conditions all affect UHF performance. Before ordering, confirm the required read distance, credential type, access control interface, available power, mounting location and regional frequency requirements.
This listing is for Nedap part 9234357 — uPASS Go FCC including Mount Set. The standard mount allows the reader to be installed on a pole or flat surface and adjusted to the appropriate angle. Nedap also offers an optional Mount Set Extension and Weather Protection Hood for installations requiring additional mounting flexibility or environmental protection.
