Abstract: An RFID device (100) including a passive smart tag (120) embedded into a pallet (190) for the life of the pallet with no need of any special maintenance. The smart tag is integrated in a special supporting cube (110), sealed to protect the smart tag from any fluid penetration. The smart tag is implanted substantially vertically into the cube, forming an angle of 45—relative to each of the cube vertical sides, such that the smart tag can be read in a high level reliability and long at ranges, for example by a forklift—(50) approaching the pallet from any of the 4 possible directions.
