Siemens 6GK1561-1AA01 CP 5611 A2 Communications Processor

The Siemens 6GK1561-1AA01 CP 5611 A2 is a SIMATIC NET communications processor for linking a programming device or PC with a PCI bus to PROFIBUS or MPI. Siemens specifies a 32-bit PCI interface supporting 3.3 V or 5 V operation at 33 or 66 MHz. The manufacturer states that legacy 32-bit support is provided only with SIMATIC NET V8.2 and identifies 6GK1561-2AA00 as the successor. Confirm host hardware, operating environment, software version, bus connector, network role and migration requirements before procurement.

Engineering Selection Priorities

Host Compatibility

Confirm that the target PG or PC provides a compatible PCI slot and supported operating environment.

Network Role

Define whether the card will connect to PROFIBUS or MPI and document the required bus settings.

Software Alignment

Match the SIMATIC NET software release and driver support to the installed host system.

Migration Planning

Assess the official successor separately because hardware and software changes can affect replacement work.

Communication Path

1 · PG or PC

A compatible host system provides the 32-bit PCI interface.

2 · CP 5611 A2

The processor handles communication between the host and field network.

3 · PROFIBUS or MPI

The configured bus carries data to compatible automation stations.

4 · Engineering Tasks

Diagnostics, commissioning and data exchange follow the validated software setup.

Typical Applications

Engineering Stations
Connecting compatible PG or PC hardware for commissioning and diagnostics.
PROFIBUS Access
Providing a host interface to supported PROFIBUS installations.
MPI Communication
Linking engineering systems to compatible MPI networks.
Maintenance Migration
Replacing the same code or planning the official successor after compatibility review.

Compatibility and Revision Notice

Confirm the complete order code 6GK1561-1AA01, PCI slot voltage and frequency, 32-bit software support, SIMATIC NET version, operating system, PROFIBUS or MPI connector and network configuration. Siemens identifies 6GK1561-2AA00 as the successor, but successor status does not guarantee drop-in interchangeability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Siemens 6GK1561-1AA01?

It is the CP 5611 A2 communications processor used to connect a PCI-based PG or PC to PROFIBUS or MPI.

Which host interface does it use?

Siemens specifies a 32-bit PCI interface for 3.3 V or 5 V operation at 33 or 66 MHz.

Which networks are supported?

The official product description identifies PROFIBUS and MPI connectivity.

What is the official successor?

Siemens lists 6GK1561-2AA00 as the successor; migration still requires a host and software compatibility review.

Is 6GK1561-1AA01 active?

Siemens identifies the exact code as PM490: Start of final year of support and states that the product is no longer available from the manufacturer.

Supplier Qualification FAQ

How should an end user identify a qualified industrial automation supplier?

Require the complete order code in writing, current product and label evidence, clear condition terminology, written warranty coverage, shipment documentation and a defined return process.

What should a procurement specialist check before issuing a purchase order?

Match the quotation, invoice and product label to the same suffix. Confirm condition, included items, destination, payment recipient, shipping method and customs paperwork.

What should an engineer verify for this communications processor?

Provide the host PCI specification, operating system, SIMATIC NET version, fieldbus type, connector and intended network role.

Which warning signs increase purchasing risk?

Vague suffixes, copied specifications, fabricated stock quantities, unrealistic delivery claims, missing label evidence and unclear warranty or return terms are significant warning signs.

Does a low price prove technical compatibility?

No. Compatibility depends on exact identity, ratings, installation constraints and the engineered load requirement.
