Overview

The SIMATIC RF685R is a stationary reader in the UHF frequency band with an integrated
antenna. As an alternative, an external UHF RFID antenna can be connected via a TNC
reverse connector.
The maximum RF power output is 2000°W at the external reader output. A radiant power of
up to 2000 mW ERP is achieved when the appropriate antennas and antenna cables are
used. The interfaces (Ethernet, M12 power supply, M12 digital I/O interface) are located
along the narrow lower front edge. These interfaces can be used to connect the reader to the
power supply and the PC for parameter assignment.
The degree of protection is IP65.
