Siemens 6GK5208-0HA00-2AS6 SCALANCE XP208 8-Port M12 IP65 Managed PROFINET Switch

The Siemens SCALANCE 6GK5208-0HA00-2AS6 (XP208) is a managed PROFINET switch with eight 10/100 Mbit/s M12 D-coded ports in an IP65 aluminum enclosure for direct field mounting without a cabinet. It runs PROFINET conformity class B with network load class III from a redundant 24 V DC supply through M12 power connectors, and supports MRP and HRP ring redundancy.

Selection Notes

The 6GK5208-0HA00-2AS6 mounts M12-coded connectors on all eight data ports plus the power and console interfaces, so it fits machine-level installations outside a cabinet where the IP65 rating removes the need for an enclosure. Choose it over the DIN-rail SCALANCE switches in this batch when the install point sees washdown, dust or vibration on the machine itself rather than inside a control panel. It fits the ET 200pro module-carrier mounting rail already used for ET 200pro I/O, keeping the network drop on the same rail as the distributed I/O it serves.

Applications

Machine-mounted PROFINET segments in washdown, dusty or outdoor zones where IP65 M12 connectors replace a cabinet-mounted DIN-rail switch, including ET 200pro-based distributed I/O lines.
