Overview of the total SIMATIC RF600 system and its influencing factors
The following graphic shows the design of the total SIMATIC RF600 system and the factors
which have an influence on the total system.
You must be aware of these influencing factors and also consider them if you wish to
integrate third-party components such as antennas or cables into the system. These
influencing factors are described in more detail in Sections Antennas (Page 58) and Antenna
cables (Page 69).

When operating the RF600 system, additional influencing factors must also be observed
such as minimum spacing between antennas in the room.
