Siemens OSM/ITP62 6GK1105-2AB00 Optical Ethernet Switch

Product Description

The Siemens SIMATIC NET OSM/ITP62 (6GK1105-2AB00) is an industrial optical Ethernet switch engineered for stable and interference-resistant data transmission in mixed copper and fiber Industrial Ethernet environments. It provides a reliable network backbone for automation systems that require deterministic communication and high operational availability.

Designed for cabinet-mounted installations, this module integrates multiple electrical Ethernet ports with fiber-optic interfaces, allowing seamless interconnection between local control equipment and long-distance network segments. Its built-in redundancy management ensures continuous communication in the event of a line failure, making it suitable for mission-critical automation networks.

Application Scope and Network Integration

The 6GK1105-2AB00 is commonly deployed in manufacturing plants, process control systems, and infrastructure networks where electromagnetic interference, long cable runs, or network redundancy are key considerations. By combining copper and optical connections in a single device, it reduces network complexity while maintaining high reliability.

This optical switch supports flexible topologies such as line, star, and redundant ring, enabling scalable network designs within SIMATIC NET environments.
