Description
Siemens 6GK1500-0FC10 PROFIBUS‑DP Bus Connector
Product Dimensions:
The Siemens 6GK1500-0FC10 is a PROFIBUS FastConnect RS-485 bus connector engineered for high-speed, reliable node connections in industrial automation networks. It features a 180^\circ straight cable outlet and insulation-displacement contacts for fast assembly without stripping individual wires.

Key Advantages
- Fast & Error-Free Assembly: FastConnect (FC) technology enables direct connection of 2-core PROFIBUS copper cables using a simple stripping tool without needing to strip individual core insulation.
- Integrated Bus Termination: Features an easily accessible slide switch to engage or disengage the bus terminating resistor; toggling the switch automatically disconnects downstream network segments to simplify isolation testing.
- Compact 180^\circ Design: Straight cable entry saves lateral panel space and provides clean routing in narrow terminal boxes, CPUS, or decentralized I/O racks.
- High EMC Shielding: Rugged industrial housing provides integrated strain relief and effective grounding against electromagnetic interference.
Important Considerations & Precautions
- PG Socket Limitation: The 6GK1500-0FC10 does not feature a PG (Programming Device) pass-through socket. If you require simultaneous connection of a programming cable or HMI without unplugging the bus, select variant 6GK1500-0FC00 instead.
- Cable Stripping Tool: To maintain reliable contacts, use the dedicated Siemens FastConnect Stripping Tool (6GK1905-6AA00) to ensure precise outer jacket and shield stripping lengths.
- Termination Rule: Ensure the terminating resistor switch is turned ON at the physical start and end nodes of a PROFIBUS segment, and OFF at all intermediate nodes.
- Power-Dependent Termination: The terminating resistor relies on 5 V DC power supplied by the host device’s Sub-D port (pins 5 and 6); powering down an end device will disable active termination for that segment unless an active bus terminator is used.
Product Applications
- PLC Network Interconnection: Connecting SIMATIC S7-300/400/1200/1500 controllers to PROFIBUS DP or MPI subnets.
- Decentralized I/O Modules: Interfacing distributed field devices (e.g., ET 200M, ET 200SP) to central control systems.
- Drive Integration: Linking SINAMICS or MASTERDRIVES variable frequency drives to fieldbus control networks.
