Why Passive RFID Is Falling Behind Active RTLS Asset Tracking

Supply chain directors are increasingly shifting from passive RFID to active Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) to overcome the visibility gaps inherent in manual or portal-based scanning. This transition is commercially significant because active tags provide continuous, automated location data that reduces labor costs and asset loss more effectively than passive systems in large-scale industrial environments.
