Siemens 6ES7972-0BA52-0XA0 SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS Connector 90° FastConnect Industrial Network Connector

The Siemens 6ES7972-0BA52-0XA0 is a SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS bus connector with a 90° cable outlet and FastConnect insulation-displacement termination, rated up to 12 Mbit/s on PROFIBUS DP. It has two insulation-displacement terminals for the bus cable and a 9-pin sub-D connector to the station, with no integrated programming port.

Selection Notes

The 90° cable outlet routes the bus cable flat along the panel or DIN rail instead of straight out of the connector — pick this variant over a straight (180°) connector where panel depth is tight or the connector sits at the end of a row of closely mounted modules. The screw-locked FastConnect terminals accept 2-core PROFIBUS FC installation cable without a separate crimp tool, and the integrated switchable terminating resistor lets it close a segment end without a separate terminator plug.

Applications

Connecting PROFIBUS DP field devices, drives, and I/O stations to the bus trunk cable in panel-mounted automation systems where cable routing space above the connector is limited.
