How it connects to Ledger
The TC22 runs the Ledger Mobile App and pairs with an RFD40 in the defined Ledger setup. The TC27 is a related family option, not a separately validated Ledger configuration. We assess its Android version, reader connection, adaptor and network requirements before recommending it.

Where it fits
Use these examples to assess the device against your assets and process.
Mobile issue and return
Carry the Ledger interface to the equipment and use a paired reader to capture tagged assets.
Asset registration and deployment
Review an asset record at the point where it is registered or deployed, rather than going back to a desk.
Field operations
Assess cellular connectivity when the process takes operators away from a managed Wi-Fi network.
Before you choose
- The standard TC22 and TC27 are not standalone UHF RFID readers. The barcode scanner and NFC radio do not replace an RFD40.
- Manufacturer accessory compatibility is not the same as Ledger validation. Check the complete device, adaptor, firmware and application combination.
- Confirm network coverage and the workflow's connectivity requirements. Cellular availability does not imply every Ledger action works offline.
