The integrated PG socket supports diagnostic or programming access where the network design requires it.
The angled outlet supports installations where straight rear routing is unsuitable.
Used for exact replacement in systems documented for the BB41 screw-clamp connector.
| Check point | Verification | Procurement note |
|---|---|---|
| Full suffix | Confirm the complete BB41 order number. | BB42, BB50 and BA41 variants differ in generation, cable entry or PG access. |
| PG socket | Verify that an integrated PG socket is required. | BA41 is the corresponding style without the PG socket. |
| Termination method | Confirm screw-clamp wiring and termination-switch requirements. | FastConnect connector families use different cable preparation. |
| Successor review | Assess 6ES7972-0BB42-0XA0 against the installed equipment. | Check dimensions, access clearance and network documentation before replacement. |
Siemens lists 6ES7972-0BB41-0XA0 as PM500:Discontinued Product or end of PLM & Support, effective 19.08.2010. The stated successor is 6ES7972-0BB42-0XA0.
It is a SIMATIC DP PROFIBUS bus connector rated for network speeds up to 12 Mbit/s.
Yes. The BB41 configuration includes a PG socket.
The cable outlet is inclined rather than the 90-degree FastConnect format.
This conventional connector variant uses screw-clamp wiring and includes a terminating resistor with isolating function.
No. Siemens lists it under PM500:Discontinued Product or end of PLM & Support.
Verify the full MLFB, cable-entry geometry, PG access, termination and cabinet clearance.
