Siemens 6GK5213-3BB00-2AB2 SCALANCE XB213-3 13xRJ45 3xST Multimode Ethernet Switch

The Siemens 6GK5213-3BB00-2AB2 SCALANCE XB213-3 is a managed Layer 2 industrial Ethernet switch with 13 RJ45 10/100 Mbit/s ports plus 3 ST multimode fiber ports, a console port, and redundant power inputs. It is IEC 62443-4-2 certified and rated for 0 to +60 degC operation with DIN-rail mounting and default PROFINET support.

Selection Notes

The XB213-3 gives 13 copper ports plus 3 ST multimode fiber uplinks in one fixed configuration, so pick it when a cell needs more RJ45 device connections than the smaller XB205/XB208 variants offer while still reaching a fiber backbone over multimode ST connectors. Its 0 to +60 degC rating targets indoor cabinets rather than outdoor or extended-temperature sites, where the XC series with -40 to +70 degC applies instead. IEC 62443-4-2 certification is relevant where the network segment falls under a component-level security requirement.

Applications

Managed access-layer switching for PROFINET or EtherNet/IP cells that combine many RJ45 field devices with a multimode fiber uplink to a plant backbone, under indoor ambient conditions.
