Siemens 6GT2891-4FN50 SIMATIC RF Connecting Cable RS422 M12/M12 50m RFID Cable
Siemens SIMATIC RF connecting cable, RS422, M12/M12, 50 m, PUR jacket for trailing duty; links readers to communication modules.
Description
About the Cable RS422, M12 / M12
About the Cable RS422, M12 / M12
The Siemens 6GT2891-4FN50 is a pre-assembled SIMATIC RF connecting cable with RS422 signaling, terminated M12/M12 (8 pin) on both ends, in a 50 m length. It links an ASM 456, RF160C, RF170C, RF18XC or RF182C reader to its communication module, or extends an existing ASM 456, RF160C, RF170C or RF18XC run. The trailing-duty PUR jacket and 6-core shielded design suit continuous cable-carrier movement.

Selection Notes
The 50 m length distinguishes this variant from shorter M12/M12 cables in the 6GT2891 line and covers longer runs between a reader and its communication module without a splice. Rated for 3,000,000 bending cycles and a 200 N tensile load, it is built for cable-carrier duty rather than a fixed run, so pick it when the reader travels with a moving axis. Where the cable only serves as a fixed extension, a shorter length in the same family reduces cost and voltage drop.
