The 0.14 m length is purpose-built for short, tight coupling between the handheld and the antenna — no excess coil to manage on the line. Rated for a maximum of 300 V with a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω, it matches the standard RF impedance for industrial RFID systems. The braided shield of tin-plated copper wires keeps radiated noise out of the signal path in electrically noisy environments like conveyor lines or packaging cells. ## Deployment context and mechanicals Both terminations are M8 male, 4-pin, straight — a common industrial RFID connector. It is also flame resistant per IEC 60332-1-2, so it won't propagate a flame along a cable tray in a panel fire. The cable is rated for continuous flexing with a minimum bend radius of 75 mm, and can handle 3 million bending cycles — a high-flex rating for robotic or moving-gantry applications where the cable sees repeated motion. For single-bend installations the minimum radius drops to 22.4 mm; for multiple bends it is 44.8 mm. The cable carries a UL/ETL listing at 300 V under UL style 1581, Sec. 1090 (H), which simplifies panel acceptance in North American installations. No separate UL mark chase needed.","metaTitle":"6GT2898-0EA00 SIMATIC RF300 Antenna Cable, 300 V, 50 Ω, 0.14","metaDescription":"Siemens 6GT2898-0EA00 SIMATIC RF300 highly flexible coaxial cable, 300 V, 50 Ω, 0.14 m, halogen-free, UL listed.
