What this cable is and where it ran
The Siemens 6GT2891-1CH50 is a pre-assembled connecting cable for the SIMATIC RF300 RFID system, linking the ASM 473 or ASM 452 evaluation unit to the reader head. It's a 5-meter run with a PUR jacket — the polyurethane outer holds up against oil, coolant splash, and abrasion out on a conveyor line or a pallet-handling station.
Sourcing reality for a discontinued cable
No official successor is listed from Siemens — the RF300 platform itself is mature, so a direct pin-compatible replacement may not exist.
