NEW 6ES7972-0BB12-0XA0

The 6ES7972-0BB12-0XA0 is a PROFIBUS connector from Siemens, designed for reliable data communication in industrial automation networks.

As part of Siemens’ industrial communication range, this connector is specifically engineered for use in PROFIBUS DP (Decentralized Peripherals) networks, facilitating secure and efficient data transfer between automation components such as PLCs, sensors, actuators, and other field devices.

It features a robust, durable design with a metal housing that provides protection against mechanical stress and electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring stable operation in harsh industrial environments. The connector supports high-speed data transmission up to 12 Mbps, making it suitable for time-critical automation applications.

A key feature is its integrated terminating resistors, which can be easily activated or deactivated to accommodate different network configurations—particularly useful for end-of-line devices in a PROFIBUS network. It includes screw terminals for secure wire connections, ensuring reliable contact even in vibration-prone settings, and is compatible with standard PROFIBUS twisted-pair cables.

Designed to operate within a temperature range of -25°C to +70°C, the 6ES7972-0BB12-0XA0 is built to withstand extreme industrial conditions, ensuring consistent performance in demanding automation environments where reliable communication is critical.
