Abstract
An adapter has a cradle portion that can removably receive a radio frequency identification tag. A first electrical connector is positioned in the cradle portion so that, when a tag is removably received in the cradle portion, the first electrical connector electrically couples the adapter to the tag. A second electrical connector is disposed on the adapter at a location spaced from the cradle portion, and the adapter includes structure that electrically couples the first and second electrical connectors.
