More Information

Overview Manuals Radio Operation Network Paths Antenna Setup I/O Integration

Features:

  • The RF685R CMIIT reader combines one integrated UHF antenna with one external antenna connection.
  • Industrial Ethernet services and RS422 provide separate network and communications-module paths.
  • Four digital inputs and four digital outputs support control signals independently of RFID data traffic.
The CMIIT configuration fixes the radio band and antenna settings that distinguish this RF685R order number from regional variants.

Two M12 Ethernet connectors allow the reader to join a line topology while the RP-TNC port remains dedicated to the external RF antenna.

The enclosure can be attached through VESA 100, top-hat rail or Siemens profile-rail hardware to suit the documented mounting arrangement.

How the CMIIT reader handles UHF tags

  • Regional Band: The CMIIT version communicates only within the documented 920–925 MHz range.
  • Tag Standards: EPCglobal Class 1 Gen 2 V2 and the identified ISO/IEC air-interface standards define transponder exchange.
  • Multiple Tags: The reader can process more than one visible transponder during an inventory cycle.
  • Polarization Choice: The integrated antenna supports selectable polarization behavior for the planned reading field.

Routes available for identification data

  • PROFINET Route: The Ethernet ports connect the reader directly to a PROFINET automation network.
  • EtherNet/IP Route: The same network interface set supports EtherNet/IP communication where that protocol is selected.
  • OPC UA Route: The integrated server exposes reader information to an OPC UA client without using the RS422 line.
  • RS422 Route: The serial connection is reserved for a communications-module path distinct from Ethernet services.

Building the RF field around the reader

  • Integrated Path: The housing antenna provides the first reading field without an external coaxial connection.
  • External Path: An RP-TNC port accepts one additional RF600 antenna for a second reading position.
  • Cable Boundary: The documented RF cable range applies to the external path and must be included in link planning.
  • Mounting Alignment: VESA and rail mounting choices affect the mechanical orientation used for the selected antenna polarization.

Keeping control signals separate from tag traffic

  • Input Group: Four digital inputs bring external control states into the reader through the 12-pin M12 connector.
  • Output Group: Four digital outputs return reader-controlled states through that dedicated I/O connection.
  • Connector Separation: RFID Ethernet, RS422 and discrete I/O use different M12 interfaces, reducing the risk of cross-connection.
  • Cold Start: When the ambient temperature is below -20 °C, the specified warm-up time precedes normal reading operation.
Description
Built for the SIMATIC RF600 identification system, Siemens 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 is an RF685R CMIIT reader that acquires UHF transponder data and presents it to connected automation networks. One antenna is integrated into the housing and a second antenna can be connected at the external RF port.

Radio communication on 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 operates in the 920–925 MHz CMIIT band and supports EPCglobal Class 1 Gen 2 V2 together with ISO/IEC 18000-62/-63. The reader handles multiple tags and provides selectable polarization modes for the integrated antenna path.

Data can leave 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 through Ethernet, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP or the integrated OPC UA server, while an RS422 interface permits connection through a communications module. Four digital inputs and four digital outputs add a separate control-signal path through their own M12 connector.

The enclosure of 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 combines IP65 protection with several documented mounting methods, including VESA 100, a 35 mm top-hat rail and Siemens profile rails. Below -20 °C, the specified ten-minute warm-up period must be observed before normal operation.

Technical notes
The CMIIT suffix on Siemens 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 fixes the radio variant; antenna choice and settings must remain within its 920–925 MHz boundary.

FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
How can I confirm that 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 is the correct regional RF685R version?
The CMIIT suffix and 920–925 MHz operating band identify 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0; a reader ordered for another regional band is not the same configuration.
Can 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 operate with both its integrated antenna and an external antenna?
Yes. 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 contains one integrated antenna and provides one RP-TNC port for an additional RF600 antenna.
What must be allowed for 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 during a very cold startup?
Below -20 °C, 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 requires the specified ten-minute warm-up period before normal operation.
Which interface should carry OPC UA data from Siemens 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0?
OPC UA communication from Siemens 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 uses its Industrial Ethernet path, not the separate RS422 connector.
How are field signals kept apart from RFID network traffic on 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0?
The four inputs and four outputs of 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 use a dedicated 12-pin M12 connector, while Ethernet and RS422 have their own ports.
Which mounting choices are documented for 6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0?
6GT2811-6CA10-2AA0 can use VESA 100, a 35 mm top-hat rail, or the listed Siemens S7 profile rails with the appropriate mounting parts.
