Product Description for Siemens 6GK1503‑3CB00 PROFIBUS Optical Link Module

1. Product Overview

6GK1503‑3CB00 is a new‑original Siemens Optical Link Module (OLM) for PROFIBUS‑DP field‑bus networks. It converts electrical RS‑485 PROFIBUS‑DP signals into optical signals and vice versa. This device serves as a signal converter between copper‑cable‑based PROFIBUS segments and fiber‑optic cables. It eliminates ground‑loop interference and extends communication distances compared with conventional copper PROFIBUS‑DP wires. This OLM supports multimode optical fiber and works with S7‑300, S7‑400, S7‑1500 PLC, ET200‑series distributed I/O modules and PROFIBUS‑DP‑compliant field‑devices. It builds reliable PROFIBUS‑DP communication for high‑noise industrial environments such as metallurgical workshops, power plants and heavy‑machinery factories where electromagnetic interference is serious. It is mounted on standard DIN rails inside control cabinets and complies with SIMATIC network configuration rules.

2. Main Functions

  1. Signal Conversion

    Transform RS‑485 electrical signals from PROFIBUS‑DP copper cables into optical signals for fiber‑optic transmission and convert optical signals back into RS‑485 signals on the receiving side. It fully complies with PROFIBUS‑DP protocol without changing original bus data content.

  2. Long‑Distance Transmission

    It extends PROFIBUS‑DP communication range. For multimode fiber, the maximum transmission distance can reach 3000 meters, far longer than 1000‑meter limit of copper‑based PROFIBUS‑DP cable at 12 Mbit/s baud‑rate.

  3. Isolate Electromagnetic Interference

    Optical fiber transmission achieves complete galvanic isolation between different PROFIBUS‑DP segments, effectively avoiding ground‑loop currents and interference from servo‑drives, frequency converters and high‑power motors.

  4. Network Topology Selection

    Support point‑to‑point and linear topologies. Multiple OLM units can be cascaded to construct large‑scale PROFIBUS‑DP optical‑fiber networks. Built‑in 120‑ohm terminating resistor can be activated for bus endpoints.

  5. Status Diagnosis

    LED indicators display power status, optical link state and PROFIBUS‑DP bus faults. Fault information can be captured via STEP‑7 or TIA Portal for troubleshooting.

  6. Data‑rate Adaptation

    Automatically adapts to PROFIBUS‑DP baud‑rates ranging from 9.6 kbit/s up to 12 Mbit/s without manual parameter setting.

  7. Expansion of Bus Stations

    Each electrical port can connect multiple PROFIBUS‑DP nodes, helping users expand total quantity of DP‑slave devices across different workshop areas.
