The 6GT2700-3DA03 is a SIMATIC RTLS4030T transponder from Siemens' RTLS4000 real-time locating system, using UWB phase technology for sub-meter asset tracking indoors and in defined outdoor zones. It operates on two radio bands — 2.4 to 2.48 GHz (IEEE 802.15.4) and 3.1 to 7.0 GHz (UWB HRP PHY per IEEE 802.15.4-2015) — with country-specific frequency allocations. The IP54-rated housing (PC, translucent) protects against dust ingress and splashing water, making it suitable for warehouse, logistics, and light industrial environments where the transponder is mounted via two M2.5 screws or cable ties.
Range: 30 m typical, up to 50 m maximum in open-air conditions — the actual reach depends on anchor placement, line-of-sight, and environmental RF noise; the manual should be followed for site-specific calibration. Battery life: 1 year in standby mode, 6 months with UWB localization at a 1-second update cycle — the CR123A primary cell is field-replaceable (product feature confirmed), so the transponder stays in service without soldering or potting. Operating temperature: -10 to +50 °C during read/write access and storage, which covers most indoor logistics environments but not freezer or high-heat zones. Dimensions: 89 mm wide, 30 mm high, 29 mm deep — compact enough to mount on pallet runners, forklift masts, or asset housings without protruding into aisles.
Lifecycle Reality — NRND and What That Means for Sourcing
This part carries a manufacturer status of NRND (Not Recommended for New Designs), meaning Siemens will continue to support existing installations but has flagged it for eventual phase-out.
