PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

6GK1500-3AA10 PROFIBUS Optical Bus Terminal

Siemens 6GK1500-3AA10 is a PROFIBUS OBT optical bus terminal for connecting an electrical PROFIBUS interface to the documented optical link arrangement. It provides one 9-pin electrical bus connection and two duplex optical ports operating at 660 nm. The unit supports PROFIBUS rates from 9.6 kbit/s to 12 Mbit/s and is ordered without the simplex plugs.

The optical specifications distinguish PCF 200/230 micrometre fibre, permitting links up to 300 m, from POF 980/1000 micrometre fibre, permitting links up to 50 m. Their attenuation allowances are different and must not be interchanged. The terminal operates from 19.2 to 28.8 V DC, has an IP30 enclosure and can be mounted on a 35 mm rail or wall under the manufacturer instructions. It does not provide redundant-ring capability.

SYSTEM & REPLACEMENT CHECK

Three direct checks to secure your system integration and minimize ordering risks.

Information

System integration Replacement check Manuals & support
SYSTEM INTEGRATION

Integrate 6GK1500-3AA10 within SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS OBT

Select PCF or POF fibre and calculate the installed optical path against its separate length and attenuation limits. PCF permits 300 m with a 3 dB allowance, while POF permits 50 m with a 13 dB allowance under the stated fibre specifications. Preserve transmit/receive pairing at both duplex connections.
Connect the electrical PROFIBUS interface through the 9-pin socket and coordinate the selected baud rate with the segment. Include the stated 6.5-bit propagation delay in the relevant network timing review. Do not configure the OBT as an optical-ring redundancy device.
Supply the unit within 19.2 to 28.8 V DC and provide an IP30-suitable environment at 0 to 60 C. Follow the rail or wall mounting instructions and use the required optical connectors. Check bus indications and the complete optical path after installing the terminal.

Features:

  • Bus data rate: 9.6 kbit/s to 12 Mbit/s
  • Electrical bus connections: 1; 9-pin Sub-D
  • SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS OBT
Use 6GK1500-3AA10 only within the documented SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS OBT arrangement and applicable installation instructions.
INTERCHANGEABILITY

Replace 6GK1500-3AA10 within SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS OBT

Record 6GK1500-3AA10, the fibre type, connector arrangement and bus rate before exchange. Preserve whether each link is PCF or POF; the different maximum distances cannot be inferred from the shared 660 nm wavelength alone.
Isolate the appropriate supply and retain the PROFIBUS termination and optical lead labels. Inspect and clean the optical interfaces under the manufacturer procedure without damaging the fibre ends. Confirm the DC polarity and mounting before reconnecting the spare.
Restore the optical pairs and check the electrical and optical bus indications. Verify communication through the affected segment at its configured rate. A reversed fibre pair, excessive attenuation or incorrect electrical termination must be resolved separately from the terminal replacement.

Features:

  • 6GK1500-3AA10 complete order code
  • Redundant ring capability: No
  • Retain the documented SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS OBT connection arrangement
Use 6GK1500-3AA10 only within the documented SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS OBT arrangement and applicable installation instructions.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions buyers ask about 6GK1500-3AA10

Direct answers about identity, compatibility, stock, warranty, payment and shipping.
  • Can 6GK1500-3AA10 be used to close a redundant optical ring?

    No. Redundant ring capability is not documented for 6GK1500-3AA10. Do not infer ring recovery from its two duplex optical ports.
  • Which link length applies to PCF cable on 6GK1500-3AA10?

    For 200/230 micrometre PCF, 6GK1500-3AA10 lists a maximum 300 m link. Check the cable type before applying that distance.
  • Why is the POF distance of 6GK1500-3AA10 shorter than its PCF distance?

    6GK1500-3AA10 specifies 980/1000 micrometre POF up to 50 m, versus PCF up to 300 m. The cable types have separate attenuation limits.
  • What optical wavelength must match the fiber path of 6GK1500-3AA10?

    The optical wavelength of 6GK1500-3AA10 is 660 nm. Match the specified POF or PCF medium rather than substituting a different optical system by connector appearance.
  • What electrical connection remains necessary with the optical ports of 6GK1500-3AA10?

    6GK1500-3AA10 has one 9-pin Sub-D electrical PROFIBUS connection in addition to its two duplex optical ports. Preserve the intended electrical-to-optical topology.
  • How should the repeater delay of 6GK1500-3AA10 enter network planning?

    The stated propagation delay for 6GK1500-3AA10 is 6.5 bit times. Include repeater delays when checking the complete PROFIBUS network configuration.
  • What fiber details prevent an ambiguous OBT quotation for 6GK1500-3AA10?

    Specify POF or PCF, required length and connector scope with the complete 6GK1500-3AA10 code. A request for optical PROFIBUS alone does not identify the cable selection.
  • Which environmental distinction should an OBT spare offer disclose for 6GK1500-3AA10?

    6GK1500-3AA10 is rated IP30 and 0 to 60 C. Confirm the proposed unit is this OBT version and state its condition and any included fiber accessories.
