Siemens 6GK1503-2CA01

OLM/P11 V4.1 module with one RS-485 interface and one plastic-fiber interface using two BFOC sockets.

Product Overview

The Siemens 6GK1503-2CA01 is a PROFIBUS OLM/P11 V4.1 optical link module supplied as a spare part. It connects one electrical RS-485 PROFIBUS interface with one plastic-fiber interface implemented by two BFOC sockets. The module supports PROFIBUS data rates from 9.6 kbit/s to 12 Mbit/s and includes a signaling contact plus a measuring output. Correct replacement requires confirmation of the fiber type, connector format, link length, supply voltage and installed network topology.

System Fit and Applications

Electrical-to-optical conversion

Link an RS-485 PROFIBUS segment to a plastic-fiber path using the specified BFOC optical interface.

Industrial fiber segmentation

Extend or separate PROFIBUS sections where fiber helps address distance, isolation or interference considerations.

Installed-base replacement

Replace an OLM/P11 V4.1 only after verifying the exact article number, connector type, fiber medium and network rate.

Compatibility and Procurement Checks

  1. Confirm the exact OLM variant: Verify P11 V4.1 and the complete 6GK1503-2CA01 code; other OLM versions have different interface counts or fiber types
  2. Identify the fiber medium: Distinguish POF from PCF and verify core dimensions, attenuation and actual link length
  3. Check connector compatibility: Confirm BFOC connections and inspect connector cleanliness and condition
  4. Validate the electrical segment: Review RS-485 connector, transmission rate, topology, termination and grounding
  5. Verify power and diagnostics: Confirm the 18 to 32 V DC supply range, signaling contact and measuring-output requirements

Lifecycle Note

Siemens has issued a product phase-out declaration for PROFIBUS OLM Pxx V4.1 devices and the current lifecycle stage is Product Cancellation. Availability and condition must be confirmed for the exact article number 6GK1503-2CA01.

Procurement and Support for Siemens 6GK1503-2CA01

Our service focuses on exact-code verification, condition transparency and practical compatibility checks for industrial automation parts. For this PROFIBUS OLM/P11 V4.1, the optical medium, BFOC connections and RS-485 network details are checked with the complete code before an offer is prepared.

Industrial automation sales coordination office

Dedicated inquiry review

A sales coordinator checks the full article number, quantity, destination, delivery priority and documentation needs. This reduces the risk of a quotation based on a shortened Siemens code or an incorrect hardware variant.

Industrial spare parts sourcing and verification office

Technical detail matching

The request is compared with verified manufacturer data. For 6GK1503-2CA01, key checks include the P11 V4.1 identity, one RS-485 interface, two BFOC sockets, supported fiber type, link length and 18-32 V DC supply.

Global industrial logistics support office

Global delivery coordination

Packaging, export documentation and shipping options are coordinated according to the destination and urgency. The offer states the supplied condition, lead-time basis and warranty terms for stakeholder review.

How Our Service Reduces Procurement Risk

1. Exact identity control

We retain the complete code 6GK1503-2CA01 throughout the inquiry. Nameplate photos, packaging labels and available documentation can be cross-checked so the requested variant is not confused with a related family member.

2. Configuration-focused review

Compatibility is assessed from the PROFIBUS rate, RS-485 topology, POF or PCF cable data, BFOC connector condition, measured link length, supply voltage and diagnostic-contact requirements.

3. Condition and delivery transparency

Where available, visual evidence can be requested for the label, housing, terminals, interfaces and package contents. Condition, lead time, delivery method and warranty coverage are clarified in the quotation.
