With cables capable of being used in drag chains, 100,000 bending cycles at a bending radius of
1)
100 mm and a bend through ± 180° or 3 million torsion cycles with a bend of ± 180° on a cable
length of 1 m are permitted.
6.2.5 Antenna parameter assignment
6.2.5.1 Setting RF620A parameters for RF650R/RF680R/RF685R
Operation within the EU according to DIN EN 302208 V1.4.1
Note
Limitation of the radiated power according to DIN EN 302208 V1.4.1
RF600 systems that are put into operation within the EU, EFTA, or Turkey (ETSI) can be
operated with an RF620A antenna with a maximum radiated power of up to 500 mW ERP (or
27 dBm ERP, 820 mW EIRP, 29 dBm EIRP).
By setting the transmit power of up to 340 mW ERP (or 25.35 dBm ERP, 560 mW EIRP,
27.5 dBm EIRP) an RF620A antenna gain of -5 dBi and taking into account the cable loss
associated with the antenna cable, the maximum permitted radiated power of the antenna
cannot be exceeded.
Operation in China
The national approval for RF600 systems in China means a restriction to 2000 mW ERP (or
33 dBm ERP, 3250 mW EIRP, 35 dBm EIRP). The possible combination of antenna gain,
cable loss, and max. 2000 mW radiated power of the readers means it is not possible to
exceed 2000 mW ERP (or 33 dBm ERP, 3250 mW EIRP, 35 dBm EIRP).
Operation in Japan
According to ARIB STD-T107 the antenna must not exceed a radiated power of 500 mW
EIRP (or 27 dBm EIRP).
