Product Overview
#

The YPB04 is a wearable card-shaped Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE 5.0) beacon designed for smart office check-in, personnel flow monitoring, and geofencing. Its slim badge form factor (86 × 55 × 6 mm, weighing only 19g) is easily worn on lanyards or attached to uniforms.

Equipped with an external push button, a vibration motor, and an RGB LED, the YPB04 offers visual and physical feedback. It features a magnetic charging port, an integrated 3-axis accelerometer sensor, and optional support for dual-frequency RFID (LF/HF/UHF), allowing it to combine BLE tracking with traditional physical gate card access.
