Siemens 6GT2801-1BA10-0AX1 SIMATIC RF300 RF310R Reader RS422 IP67 Rotated Baseplate RFID Reader

The Siemens 6GT2801-1BA10-0AX1 is a SIMATIC RF300 RF310R (GEN2) RFID reader with an integrated antenna and a rotated base plate for tight mounting clearances. It communicates 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 housing operates from -25 to +70 degC.

Selection Notes

The rotated base plate variant suits mounting locations where the standard housing orientation would force the M12, 8-pin connector into an inaccessible position - rotating 90 degrees keeps the same IP67 rating, 13.56 MHz read range, and RS422 wiring unchanged. With a maximum RS422 cable run of 1000 m, it fits controller cabinets set well back from the read point. The integrated antenna keeps the reader footprint at 75 x 55 x 30 mm, useful where a separate antenna cable is not practical.

Applications

Pairs with SIMATIC RF300 communication modules for conveyor-line and pallet-tracking applications where ISO 15693 tags need to be read at fixed points; the 24 V DC supply and IP67 housing allow direct mounting near the read zone without an additional enclosure.
