The Siemens SIMATIC RF Series Connecting Cable, part number 6GT2891-4FN10, is a pre-assembled, highly flexible communication line designed to facilitate robust and reliable connectivity between various components in industrial automation environments. This 10-metre cable is specifically engineered to connect the ASM 456 communication module to RFID readers such as the RF160C, RF170C, and RF18XC, or to serve as an extension cable within the same setup.
Crafted with a focus on durability and performance, the cable features a braided shield made of tin-plated copper wires, ensuring excellent electromagnetic compatibility and protection against external interference. The cable sheath is made from PUR (polyurethane), known for its resilience to wear, abrasion, and various environmental factors, including exposure to mineral oils and grease.
The cable's electrical characteristics are designed to support industrial communication requirements, with an operating voltage maximum of 300 V and an insulation resistance coefficient of 20 GΩ·m. The mechanical construction allows for a bending radius as low as 21.6 mm for single bends and up to 75 mm for continuous bending, withstanding up to 3 million bending cycles, making it suitable for dynamic applications including cable carriers.
The 6GT2891-4FN10 is compliant with the UL/ETL 300 V rating, and its flame-resistant properties adhere to the IEC 60332-1-2 standard, ensuring it meets rigorous industry safety and quality standards. This cable is an essential component for those seeking a reliable solution for their industrial communication and RFID system needs.
