Siemens 6GK1561-2AA00 CP 5612 PROFIBUS PCI Communication Processor

CP 5612 PCI communication processor for connecting industrial PG and PC systems to PROFIBUS or MPI networks.

Product Overview

Siemens 6GK1561-2AA00 is the SIMATIC NET CP 5612 communication processor for connecting a programming device or industrial PC with a PCI bus to PROFIBUS or MPI. Official Siemens data identifies one 9-pin Sub-D RS485 interface, a 32-bit universal PCI connection and PROFIBUS transfer rates from 9.6 kbit/s to 12 Mbit/s. The card is specified for supported 32-bit and 64-bit operating-system environments. Procurement should verify the complete order code, available PCI slot, host voltage support, operating system, SIMATIC NET software, driver package, network connector, bus termination and existing project communication requirements before installation or replacement.

System Fit and Applications

Application Area Product-Specific Guidance
Control Network Fit PC-based automation, engineering and diagnostic stations requiring PROFIBUS or MPI communication.
System Role Provides an RS485 network interface between a PCI-equipped PG or PC and the field network.
Typical Applications Engineering workstations, industrial PCs, commissioning stations, diagnostics and PC-based communication tasks.
Maintenance Use Exact CP 5612 replacement where PCI, driver, software and network configuration must be preserved.
Configuration Importance PCI slot type, host voltage, operating system, SIMATIC NET package, driver and bus parameters must be reviewed.

Compatibility and Procurement Checks

  • Verify the complete order code 6GK1561-2AA00 against the Siemens label.
  • Confirm the host has a compatible 32-bit universal PCI slot supporting the documented voltage and frequency.
  • Review the PC operating system, architecture, SIMATIC NET software release and CP 5612 driver support.
  • Compare PROFIBUS or MPI baud rate, station address, 9-pin Sub-D connector and RS485 bus termination.
  • Check cabinet temperature, humidity, IP00 installation environment and electrostatic handling procedures.
  • Request readable card, connector, label and packaging photographs for procurement records.

Lifecycle Note

Siemens identifies 6GK1561-2AA00 as PM300: Active Product. This page retains that exact lifecycle wording and does not infer phase-out or discontinuation. Compatibility still depends on the host PCI architecture, operating system, Siemens communication software, drivers, PROFIBUS or MPI connector and existing project configuration.

Industrial Automation Procurement Service

Structured verification, inspection, documentation and delivery support for 6GK1561-2AA00.

Service Workflow

Our workflow begins with exact model and suffix verification against the purchase request and available product label. For this CP 5612, the team compares the PCI host interface, 9-pin RS485 connection, PROFIBUS or MPI network parameters, operating system, SIMATIC NET software and driver requirements. Compatibility is reviewed for the installed system and project without promising automatic interchangeability.

Service Stage What Stockoems Checks
1. Model and suffix verification The complete 6GK1561-2AA00 order code, manufacturer label and visible hardware details are compared.
2. Condition confirmation Condition, connectors, housing, included items, seals and visible handling marks are reviewed from available evidence.
3. Technical compatibility review PCI slot type, 3.3 V and 12 V backplane supply, 9-pin Sub-D RS485 interface, bus rate, address, termination, operating system, SIMATIC NET release and driver support are compared.
4. Product and label photo confirmation Readable product, nameplate, connector and packaging photographs can be coordinated before shipment.
5. Protective packaging Antistatic and impact-protective materials are selected to protect the PCI card, edge connector, RS485 interface and electronic components.
6. Worldwide shipping Available worldwide shipping options are reviewed after destination, quantity and packaging scope are confirmed.
7. Shipment tracking Tracking details and shipment records are provided for the agreed logistics method.
8. Customs documentation Commercial invoices, packing information and available customs documentation are prepared for the shipment.
9. Written warranty terms The applicable one-year commercial warranty scope is documented before order completion.
10. Return authorization Return conditions and authorization steps are explained in writing before approval.
11. After-sales response Questions about received condition, documentation and installation evidence are handled through a traceable service channel.

Inspection and Documentation Support

The service team coordinates label review, technical-document comparison, connector inspection, packaging preparation, logistics communication and after-sales records. We can help procurement teams compare the requested order code with available nameplate evidence and verify that the quoted condition and included items are clearly described. Engineers should supply the host PC model, PCI slot specification, operating-system version and architecture, SIMATIC NET software release, driver record, PROFIBUS or MPI network settings and project communication requirements. We do not promise unverified inventory quantities or fixed delivery dates. Commercial timing is confirmed only after the exact product, required quantity, destination and inspection scope have been reviewed.

Supplier Qualification FAQ

How can an end user identify a qualified industrial automation source?
Look for complete legal and commercial details, model-specific technical communication, readable inspection evidence, written warranty terms, a defined return authorization process and traceable after-sales contacts.
Which documents, labels and commercial terms should procurement verify?
Review the quotation, complete order code, nameplate photos, condition statement, included accessories, warranty scope, shipping terms, customs documents and return conditions before approval.
How should engineers confirm model, firmware, interfaces and compatibility?
Compare 6GK1561-2AA00, PCI slot and voltages, operating-system architecture, SIMATIC NET software and drivers, 9-pin RS485 connector, bus rate, station address, termination and project configuration.
What are common risk signals when selecting a source?
Incomplete order codes, refusal to provide readable nameplate images, conflicting technical parameters, unclear condition descriptions, unsupported compatibility claims and inability to explain warranty or return authorization are important warning signs.
