The Siemens 6GT2810-0DC10 is a SIMATIC RF640T Tool Tag — an on-metal RFID transponder built for asset tracking in industrial environments where the tag mounts directly on metal surfaces. It operates in the 915 MHz FCC band and carries 216 bytes of user memory on an NXP UCODE HSL chip, compliant with ISO 18000-6B. The IP68 rating means it survives washdown and submersion, so it's suited for tool cribs, maintenance floors, or any line where tags see coolant, oil, or pressure washing.
The 50 x 8 mm (diameter x height) cylindrical form factor is designed for tool tracking — think drill chucks, die holders, or any metallic asset where a small footprint matters. The on-metal transponder design means it doesn't suffer the detuning you'd get from a standard tag stuck on steel; the read performance stays reliable at the expected range for the 915 MHz band. The 216-byte user memory is enough for a part ID, maintenance timestamp, or calibration counter — not a full data log, but adequate for a tool crib database pointer.
