The Siemens 6AG1972-0BA12-2XA0 is a SIPLUS DP PROFIBUS RS-485 bus connector based on the standard 6ES7972-0BA12-0XA0. It is designed for connecting PROFIBUS stations to the PROFIBUS bus cable in industrial automation networks.
The connector supports PROFIBUS DP communication from 9.6 kbit/s to 12 Mbit/s and uses a 90° cable outlet. PROFIBUS cables are connected through screw terminals, while the station-side interface uses a 9-pin Sub-D connector. An integrated terminating resistor can be selected using a slide switch. The SIPLUS version includes conformal coating and extended-temperature capability for demanding industrial applications.

Technical FAQs
1. What is Siemens 6AG1972-0BA12-2XA0?
6AG1972-0BA12-2XA0 is a SIPLUS DP PROFIBUS RS-485 bus connector based on the Siemens 6ES7972-0BA12-0XA0.
2. What is the main function of this connector?
It connects a PROFIBUS station to the PROFIBUS bus cable and provides the electrical interface required for RS-485 PROFIBUS communication.
3. What PROFIBUS transmission rates are supported?
The connector supports PROFIBUS DP transmission rates from 9.6 kbit/s up to 12 Mbit/s.
4. Does the connector have a programming-device socket?
No. The 6AG1972-0BA12-2XA0 is the version without a PG socket.
5. How is the PROFIBUS cable connected?
The PROFIBUS cable is connected using screw terminals, while the station-side connection uses a 9-pin Sub-D connector.
6. Does the connector include a terminating resistor?
Yes. An integrated resistor combination can be connected or disconnected using the built-in slide switch.
7. What is the purpose of the terminating resistor?
The terminating resistor is used to terminate the PROFIBUS segment correctly when the connector is installed at an appropriate end position of the bus.
8. What does the 90° cable outlet provide?
The 90° outlet routes the PROFIBUS cable perpendicular to the connected device interface, helping reduce cable-routing space in control cabinets and machine installations.
9. What environmental protection does the SIPLUS version provide?
The connector uses conformal coating and is specified for an extended operating temperature range of approximately -25 °C to +70 °C.
10. What should be verified before ordering this connector?
The PROFIBUS device interface, required transmission rate, cable type, connector orientation, terminating-resistor position, and applicable Siemens documentation should be verified before ordering.
