What this UHF RFID label is — and what it isn't
The 6GT2810-2AE80-0AX1 is a white PET SmartLabel from the SIMATIC RF650L series, built for the Siemens RF600 identification system. It carries an NXP G2XL transponder chip with 240-bit EPC memory and 32 bytes of user memory, operating across the full 865-928 MHz UHF band — so it covers ETSI (Europe), FCC (North America), and other regional allocations without a hardware variant change. The read range tops out at 4 m, but that's reader-dependent — the system manual for RF600 flags that overrange is possible, and actual performance depends on the reader model, antenna gain, and mounting surface. This isn't a generic UHF tag; it's tuned for the Siemens RF600 ecosystem, so expect best results with Siemens readers.
Physical fit and deployment constraints
Label dimensions are 101 mm long by 32 mm wide, with a thickness of just 0.3 mm — essentially a heavy-duty sticker. It's one-side adhesive onto plastic or foil, so it bonds to pallets, totes, or product packaging. The material is PET, which handles torsion and bending stress conditionally — don't wrap it around tight radii or expect it to survive repeated flexing. IP67 is achieved only when properly adhered — the seal is between the label and the surface, not the label itself. That makes it suitable for washdown environments in food or beverage lines, provided the adhesion surface is clean and the label isn't edge-exposed to high-pressure spray.
Environmental limits that matter for procurement
Operating temperature during read/write is -25 to +85 °C; outside the read/write area it survives -40 to +120 °C. Storage conditions are 19 to 24 °C at 45-55% humidity, with a maximum shelf life of 2 years.
Memory, security, and data handling
The NXP G2XL chip supports lock, unlock, kill, write protection, and password protection — so you can secure the tag data against unauthorized rewriting or permanently lock the EPC. The 32-byte user memory is modest; it's enough for a lot ID or a date code, not for a full product history. The tag is multitag-capable, meaning multiple labels in the field can be read simultaneously in a single interrogation zone. Data transfer rate over the air is up to 320 kbit/s, which is standard for UHF Gen2. The printing process is thermal transfer — so you'll need a compatible RFID printer/encoder that supports the label pitch and chip alignment.
Sourcing reality
These ship 2500 units per roll, 11 cartons per pallet, with a minimum order quantity of 110,000 units. The part is quoted to order; lead time depends on order size and production queue.
