The SIEMENS 6ES7193-6AR00-0AA0, also cataloged as the BA 2xRJ45 BusAdapter, operates as a dedicated hardware component for PROFINET IO physical media selection within SIMATIC ET 200SP distributed I/O systems.

Model Configuration

The 6ES7193-6AR00-0AA0 designates the BA 2xRJ45 BusAdapter variant within the SIMATIC ET 200SP platform. It equips compatible interface modules or CPUs with two standard RJ45 sockets, enabling integrated 2-port switch functionality for copper-based PROFINET network topologies.

Hardware Specifications

Industrial Ethernet Interface and Backplane Integration

The BusAdapter provides a modular physical media interface for ET 200SP devices, separating the field network connection from the underlying processing electronics. Integrated 2-port switching supports line and ring PROFINET IO topologies across standard copper conductors over distances up to 100 meters. The mechanical interlock ensures low-vibration attachment directly to the interface module or CPU enclosure.

Installation and Field Wiring Guidelines

• Attachment Procedure: Push the BusAdapter directly onto the designated interface slot of the ET 200SP interface module or CPU until the mechanical latch engages fully.
• Cable Limits: Use standard copper Ethernet cabling with RJ45 plugs up to a maximum segment length of 100 meters.
• Altitude Restrictions: Refer to the ET 200SP system manual for operational derating and insulation restrictions when operating at altitudes above 2 000 meters up to the 5 000 meter ceiling.
• Environmental Limits: Ensure ambient operating temperatures remain within -30 deg C to 60 deg C for horizontal mounting orientations, or -30 deg C to 50 deg C for vertical mounting orientations.
