5.4 SIMATIC RF680R
5.4.1 Description
5.4.1.1 Overview
The SIMATIC RF680R is a stationary reader in the UHF frequency band without an
integrated antenna. Up to four external UHF RFID antennas can be connected via RP-TNC
connectors.
The maximum transmit power is 2000 mW at the reader output. A radiated power of up to
2000 mW ERP / 4000 mW EIRP is achieved when the appropriate antennas and antenna
cables are used. The interfaces (Ethernet, power supply, DI/DQ interface) are located on the
lower front edge. These interfaces can be used to connect the reader to the power supply
and a PC or a controller for parameter assignment.
The degree of protection is IP65.
