CAEN RFID unveils 4 new RAIN RFID reader modules: [Lepton3x1](https://www.caenrfid.com/en/products/lepton3x1-r3101c/)
, [Lepton3x4](https://www.caenrfid.com/en/products/lepton3x4-r3104c/)

 and [Lepton7x4](https://www.caenrfid.com/en/products/lepton7x4-r7104c/)
.

The modules are based on the recently released [Lepton3](https://www.caenrfid.com/en/products/r3100-lepton3/)
 and [Lepton7](https://www.caenrfid.com/en/products/r7100-lepton7/)
 SMD modules and are designed to facilitate the usage for those customers who don’t use automatic manufacturing.

The new modules expose a MOLEX connector for power supply and data communication and 1 or 4 MMCX antenna connectors (depending on the model).  
 All the modules embed an aluminum heat sink and have mounting holes to simplify the integration in customer’s devices.  
 The **Lepton3x4** and **Lepton7x4** have the same dimensions and mounting holes of the Hadron module to simplify the transition to the new modules for existing customers.  
 With the introduction of these new 4 products, CAEN RFID has one of the widest offering of modules based on the new Impinj Ex10 series chips.
