Description
The 6GK1162-3AA00 is a Communications Processor CP 1623 by Siemens for connecting SIMATIC programming devices/PCs and PCs with PCI Express slots to Industrial Ethernet networks operating at 10/100/1000 Mbit/s. The 6GK1162-3AA00 enables high-speed communication between industrial PCs and SIMATIC S7 systems, making it ideal for automation, monitoring, and data logging applications in industrial environments.
The 6GK1162-3AA00 features a PCI Express x1 half-length card format that can also operate in PCIe x4, x8, or x16 slots, providing flexible installation options through the standard PCIe plug-and-play mechanism. The 6GK1162-3AA00 is powered via the PCIe interface at 3.3 V and 12 V, with an optional external DC power supply of 12–24 V (10.5–32 V range) available to ensure continued switch operation when the host PC is turned off.

Hardware Installation
Features:
- PCI Express x1 Interface with Plug-and-Play Installation
- Integrated 2-Port RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet Switch
- HARDNET-IE S7 and S7-REDCONNECT Support
- Up to 120 Simultaneous Connections
- PROFINET CBA Support with Up to 10,000 Interconnections
The 6GK1162-3AA00 supports comprehensive communication services through HARDNET-IE S7 software (S7-1613). The 6GK1162-3AA00 enables S7 communication for programming device/PC applications such as WinCC to access SIMATIC S7 system components, supporting management services, connection management, variable read/write, BSEND/BRECEIVE, and H-communication. The 6GK1162-3AA00 supports up to 120 possible connections for S7/PG communication and up to 40 connections for S7 communication. For redundant S7 communication with high-availability S7-400H systems, the 6GK1162-3AA00 can be combined with S7-REDCONNECT software.
The 6GK1162-3AA00 SIEMENS Communications processor CP 1623 PCI may still be available for purchase and support from Amikon Limited beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
An onboard dedicated microprocessor handles communication protocol processing, offloading the host PC CPU. The ISO and TCP/IP transport protocols are implemented directly on the card. The CP 1623 supports up to 120 simultaneous connections for S7 communication, PG/OP communication, or open communication (SEND/RECEIVE). Up to 40 connections are available for S7 communication specifically. In multi-protocol operation, the total effective connection count remains 120.
For redundant systems, the CP 1623 supports S7-REDCONNECT, enabling communication with SIMATIC S7 H (high-availability) systems. PROFINET CBA (Component Based Automation) is supported with up to 10,000 interconnections and 228 remote interconnection groups when used with the PN CBA OPC Server and SIMATIC iMAP configuration software.
The card draws primary power from the PCIe bus at 3.3 V and 12 V. An optional external power supply of 12 V to 24 V DC (10.5 V to 32 V DC limit) can be connected via a 2-pole terminal block. When external power is applied, the integrated 2-port switch remains active even if the host PC is powered down, maintaining network connectivity for connected devices.
- SCADA/HMI: Handles high-volume data from factory devices without slowing host PCs
- PC-Based Control: Enables deterministic stable communication for high-performance PC automation
- Redundant Networks: Connects to S7-400H PLCs for zero-downtime in critical continuous production
- Distributed Routing: Integrated 2-port switch saves panel space, eliminates external switches
- High-Capacity Aggregation: Supports up to 120 concurrent S7 connections to field devices

Power Off: Turn off your PC, disconnect the power cord, and open the computer housing according to your manufacturer's manual.
Locate Slot: Find a vacant PCI Express x1 slot (or x4, x8, x16 slots) on the motherboard.Insert: Remove the slot cover from the PC case. Align the CP 1623 card with the slot and press it down firmly until it is fully seated.
Secure: Use a screw or the PC case's locking mechanism to secure the metal bracket of the card to the chassis.
Close: Close the PC housing.
