An EAS Tag is one crucial part of an EAS-system. EAS tags are small pieces of technology that you put on the merchandise that you want to protect. EAS systems use radio frequency technology with both RF and AM systems to detect articles or products that have EAS labels, stickers or tags attached to them when they pass through gates or sensors at the front of the store. One of the major differences between the two systems is that an RF will enable store owners to integrate security deactivation and barcode scanning into one single process. If a store uses an RF- EAS system the complete sale transaction does not require any additional process and therefore very streamlined.
