Description
The Siemens 6GK1500-0FC10 is the PROFIBUS FC RS 485 Plug 180: a PROFIBUS bus connector whose cable leaves straight out of the 9-pin sub-D port rather than at a right angle. It takes the incoming and outgoing 2-core PROFIBUS FastConnect installation cable on insulation-displacement terminals and has no programming (PG) socket. A slide switch brings in the integrated terminating resistor; when it is switched on, the outgoing bus is isolated. Siemens rates it for 9.6 kbit/s to 12 Mbit/s, IP20 and -40 to +70 °C in operation, and gives its size as 16 x 62 x 34.5 mm (W x H x D).
Application: PROFIBUS networks
Used with: PROFIBUS devices with a 9-pin sub-D interface
What is the 6GK1500-0FC10 used for?
Siemens lists it for industrial PCs, SIMATIC operator panels (OP) and optical link modules (OLM): devices where a right-angle plug would foul a cover, a neighbouring module or the cable route. Like any PROFIBUS connector, the first and last one on a segment have the terminating resistor switched on.

Product Questions
Is the 6GK1500-0FC10 discontinued?
No. Its manufacturer lifecycle status is Active.
Can another Siemens PROFIBUS FC RS 485 Plug 180 part replace it?
Potential replacements must be checked against the required ratings, dimensions and connections. Sharing a family name does not establish interchangeability.
