New Quattro Card enables the IPICO Super Elite Reader to independently or simultaneously support both ultra-high frequency (“UHF”) and dual frequency (“DF”) race timing needs
Dallas – December 12, 2017 – ACTIVE Network®, the premier global marketplace for activities and events and an industry-leading provider of intelligence solutions, today announced the availability of new ACTIVE Network | IPICO timing technologies which can be seamlessly integrated with ACTIVE’s event management software through its innovative ACTIVE TimingTM platform.
Motiv Sports has used this new technology to time several events, including the Long Beach Marathon, over the past two months.
“ACTIVE’s new combined UHF and DF timing solution is a game-changer for the timing industry,” said David Simms, of Motiv Sports. “Preliminary read rates are ~99.9%. Motiv Sports will use this solution and suite of services at all of our events around the world. No other solution offers large-scale events and event series the flexibility, reliability and combination of services of ACTIVE Network | IPICO.”
With the introduction of the Quattro Card, ACTIVE Network│IPICO offers timers both flexibility and cost-effective ownership of timing hardware to support events of all types and sizes. Timers can plug the Quattro Card directly into the Super Elite Reader to time multiple events using both UHF and DF, either independently or simultaneously.
The Quattro Card builds upon a decade of development on the Super Elite Reader, a platform that major marathons and elite-tier races around the world rely upon to quickly and accurately time participants.
In addition to the Quattro Card, endurance event timers can also utilize ACTIVE’s new UHF tags and UHF mats to realize significant cost savings. This integrated UHF timing solution incorporates the versatility and ease-of-use of a new frequency into the reliability of ACTIVE’s flagship readers, which can also support third-party timing mats.
