Siemens 6GT2801-2AB10 RFID Industrial Reader System

Siemens 6GT2801-2AB10 RFID Industrial Reader System is the SIMATIC RF300 RF340R reader module with an integrated antenna, designed to read ISO 15693 passive transponders in demanding industrial environments for reliable identification of components, assets, and personnel badges at close range. The RF340R is a SIMATIC RF300 reader with an RS422 interface (3964R), housed in a compact 75 × 75 × 41 mm enclosure and rated IP67 for rugged conditions, with operating temperatures from -25 °C to +70 °C to withstand harsh factory floors. Maximum read range is specified up to 140 mm, depending on transponder type, making it well-suited to short-range identification tasks where tag orientation may vary and space is at a premium, while the integrated antenna simplifies installation by eliminating the need for a separate external antenna. As part of the SIMATIC RF300 portfolio, the 6GT2801-2AB10 provides a robust, ISO15693-compatible solution for industrial automation and asset-tracking workflows that demand reliable RFID reads in challenging environments.
