Specification

SEODescription

The Siemens 6GK1162-3AA00 is a robust Industrial Ethernet Switch 6GK1162 from the SCALANCE X Switch Module series, designed for harsh industrial environments. It features 4x 10/100 Mbps RJ45 ports with auto-negotiation and auto-crossing, enabling seamless connectivity for devices like PLCs, HMIs, and sensors. The switch supports direct integration into PROFINET networks and offers plug-and-play functionality without complex configuration. Operating within a wide voltage range of 24 V DC (±20%) and a temperature range of -40°C to +70°C, it ensures reliability in extreme conditions. Ideal for manufacturing, energy, and transportation sectors, its key advantages include high EMC immunity, rugged metal housing, and support for redundant protocols like STP/RSTP. However, its fixed port count (4 ports) limits scalability compared to modular switches.
