An AM (Acousto-Magnetic) Antenna is a retail anti-theft solution that uses 58kHz acousto-magnetic technology to detect security tags attached to merchandise. Widely used in apparel stores, supermarkets, pharmacies, and other retail environments, it helps prevent shoplifting, reduce inventory shrinkage, and improve overall store security.
Why Choose AM Antennas?
-
High Detection Accuracy
Advanced 58kHz acousto-magnetic technology delivers excellent detection performance, helping retailers prevent shoplifting effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions
01What is the detection range of an AM security system?
The detection range depends on the type of security tag being used, the antenna configuration, and the installation environment. Typically, a pair of AM Antennas provides an effective detection width of 1.5 to 3 meters (4.9–9.8 ft).
02What is the difference between AM, RF, and RFID security systems?
Each technology offers unique advantages for different retail applications.
AM (58kHz) – High detection accuracy, excellent resistance to interference, and a wider detection range, making it ideal for apparel stores and high-traffic retail environments.
RF (8.2MHz) – More economical and suitable for stores with less electrical interference, though it generally offers a shorter detection range.
RFID (UHF) – Provides the longest reading distance and supports inventory management, asset tracking, and smart checkout. However, RFID performance can be affected by metal objects and liquids, requiring careful system design.
