What this RFID label is
The Siemens 6GT2810-2AB01-0AX1 is a SIMATIC RF630L SmartLabel — a UHF RFID transponder label on white PET material, sized 101 mm wide by 50 mm deep, with a thickness of 0.3 mm. It uses the NXP G2iM chip and operates across the 860 to 960 MHz frequency band, supporting EPCglobal Class 1 Gen 2 and ISO 18000-63 protocols. User memory is 64 bytes, and the maximum read range is 5 m, though actual range depends on the reader and environment — overrange is possible per the RF600 system manual.
The 860 to 960 MHz operating frequency covers global UHF RFID bands. The NXP G2iM chip provides 256-bit EPC memory plus 64 bytes of user memory. The label is designed for the SIMATIC RF600 system — specifically noted as suitable for operation with RF600 readers. It achieves IP60 protection only when properly glued; the manufacturer explicitly states the label must be protected against humidity in its glued condition. The adhesive is described as one-sided adhesive especially for foam materials, so this is the variant to order when the target surface is foamed rather than a smooth rigid substrate. Operating temperature range is -40 to +80 °C during read/write access and outside the read/write area, with a storage life maximum of 2 years at 40% to 60% humidity. The thermal transfer printing process is specified, so the label accepts on-demand printing at the point of application. Maximum transfer rate is 320 kbit/s.
This class of UHF RFID label is used for identifying and tracking assets, work-in-progress, or finished goods in industrial environments — particularly where the SIMATIC RF600 reader infrastructure is already deployed. The white PET material and thermal-transfer printability make it suitable for applications that require a human-readable barcode or text alongside the RFID transponder, such as pallet labels, tote tags, or serialization labels in pharmaceutical and automotive supply chains.
