It is the antenna you pair with an RF600 reader when you need a rugged, IP65-rated external antenna for a fixed-mount RFID portal or conveyor gate. Linear polarization and a maximum VSWR of 2 mean the radiated pattern is predictable — you align the antenna's polarization to the tag's orientation for best read range. The 130° horizontal and 105° vertical beamwidth covers a wide zone, so a single antenna can illuminate a pallet or tote passing through a read portal. The -20 to +70 °C operating range covers unheated warehouses and outdoor dock doors in most climates. The 0.3 m pigtail with an RP-TNC male connector is short — you will need an extension cable (the accessory list shows antenna cables from 1 to 40 m) to reach the reader. Mounting is via two M5 screws through the 76 mm square face, so the bolt pattern is standard for a small enclosure bracket or a custom arm. The 50 Ω impedance and max VSWR of 2 are typical for this class of panel antenna; the -5 dB gain at linear radiation is moderate, which keeps the FCC radiated power within limits without a separate attenuator in most installations. The 6GT2812-2EA01 is an active, mature product in the Siemens RF600 family. There is no announced phase-out or last-time-buy, so it is a safe BOM line for new designs and ongoing MRO replenishment.","metaTitle":"Siemens 6GT2812-2EA01 RF622A Antenna, 902-928 MHz, IP65","metaDescription":"Siemens 6GT2812-2EA01 RF622A UHF RFID antenna, 902-928 MHz FCC band, linear polarization, IP65, -20 to +70 °C, RP-TNC, 0.3 m cable.
