What this tag is and where it goes
The Siemens 6GT2810-2HC00 is a SIMATIC RF650T UHF RFID tag built for the ETSI band (865–868 MHz). It complies with ISO 18000-63 and EPC Class 1 Gen 2, using an NXP UCODE 8 chip with 128 bits (16 bytes) of EPC memory and no user memory. The tag measures 54 x 24 x 8.8 mm in an ASA/TPS-SEBS housing rated IP68, meaning it survives continuous immersion and washdown environments — think outdoor logistics, automotive paint shops, or food processing lines where moisture and thermal cycling are routine. This is a self-adhesive tag designed for mounting on metal surfaces. The adhesive backing and on-metal performance eliminate the need for spacers or specialized brackets, which simplifies installation on metal pallets, tooling, or equipment frames. The operating temperature range of -15 °C to +55 °C covers most indoor industrial environments but not freezer applications.
Sourcing and lifecycle reality
For a BOM freeze or ongoing production line, this tag is a stable line item. No successor has been published, and the ETSI frequency variant (865–868 MHz) is the correct choice for European deployments. If you are sourcing for a new design, the active status and standard product classification mean you can commit the BOM line without worrying about imminent obsolescence.
Compliance and documentation
RoHS compliance is confirmed, with the substance restrictions satisfied. Under REACH Article 33, the tag contains lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above the 0.1% threshold, which must be declared in the supply chain documentation. Export control is straightforward: AL: N / ECCN: EAR99H, meaning no special licensing for most commercial shipments.
