Optical Link Module

2 × Plastic FOC

1 × RS485 PROFIBUS interface

Product Overview

The Siemens 6GK1502-3CA10 is a SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS OLM/P12 V3.1 optical link module that couples one RS485 electrical segment with two plastic-fiber optical interfaces. The optical side provides four BFOC sockets.

The module includes a signaling contact, a test port and four BFOC connectors. It is intended for maintaining or extending installed PROFIBUS networks where electrical-to-optical conversion and exact connector compatibility are required.

System Fit and Applications

Electrical-to-fiber conversion

Couple a PROFIBUS RS485 segment to plastic-fiber links in electrically noisy industrial areas.

Fiber segment expansion

Extend installed PROFIBUS networks across two optical interfaces while retaining the documented BFOC connection format.

Legacy OLM maintenance

Replace an installed OLM/P12 V3.1 after checking topology, optical medium, connector condition and diagnostics wiring.

Compatibility and Procurement Checks

Exact OLM version

Confirm 6GK1502-3CA10 and OLM/P12 V3.1 on the nameplate.

Interface configuration

Verify one RS485 interface, two plastic FOC interfaces and four BFOC sockets match the installed network.

Accessory scope

Confirm whether the four BFOC connectors are present and inspect the signaling-contact and test-port connections.

Successor engineering

Siemens names 6GK1503-3CA01 as successor; validate topology, mounting, power and commissioning differences before replacement.

Lifecycle Note

Siemens lists 6GK1502-3CA10 as “PM500: Discontinued Product or end of PLM & Support,” with end of product lifecycle since 01.01.2019. The official successor is 6GK1503-3CA01; this status applies only to the exact article number.
