The Siemens 6GT2801-2BA10 is a SIMATIC RF300 RF340R (GEN2) RFID reader with an integrated antenna for fixed-point identification. It connects over an RS422 interface (3964R protocol) at up to 115.2 kbit/s and reads ISO 15693 and MOBY E transponders at 13.56 MHz. The IP67-rated 75 x 75 x 41 mm housing runs on 24 V DC from -25 to +70 degC.

Selection Notes

The 75 x 75 x 41 mm housing carries a larger integrated antenna than the compact form-factor readers in the same interface family, which extends usable read range at the same 13.56 MHz frequency without changing the RS422 wiring. Two M5 screws mount it directly to a bracket or frame member. Choose it where the RS422 cable run to the controller needs to stay within the 1000 m limit and the footprint fits the mounting space.

Applications

Pairs with SIMATIC RF300 communication modules for identification points on conveyors or assembly fixtures where a standard, non-rotated housing orientation is sufficient.
