Features:
- Four RJ45 ports form the integrated PROFINET real-time switch.
- Controller mode addresses 128 IO devices, including 64 IRT devices.
- Web, port and I&M diagnostics expose device and connection status.
The ERTEC 400 and PCI interface divide real-time network processing from the host application.
Controller and device data areas are defined separately for predictable input, output and submodule organization.
MRP functions let the four-port switch participate in a ring and operate as redundancy manager.
The Siemens 6GK1161-6AA02 CP 1616 PROFINET Communications Processor may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

PROFINET controller organization
- Total Devices: Controller mode addresses as many as 128 PN IO devices.
- IRT Portion: Up to 64 of those devices can operate as IRT devices.
- Aggregate Input: The controller accepts 8,192 bytes of input user data.
- Aggregate Output: The matching controller output area is 8,192 bytes.
PROFINET device data model
- Input Direction: Device operation supports 1,430 bytes of input user data.
- Output Direction: Device operation supports 1,430 bytes of output user data.
- Submodule Payload: Each submodule can use 254 bytes per direction.
- Structure Limit: One PROFINET IO device can contain 64 submodules.
Locating network and device information
- Web View: Browser-based diagnostics provide device-level status.
- Port View: Individual switch-port diagnostics isolate connection conditions.
- I&M Records: Identity, location, installation date, comments, signature and OEM data are supported.
- Discovery: DCP and LLDP describe addressing and neighbor relationships.
Redundancy behavior inside the switch
- Ring Protocol: Media Redundancy Protocol is supported.
- Manager Role: The CP can perform the redundancy-manager function.
- Integrated Switch: The four RJ45 ports keep ring participation on the same card.
- IRT Support: The switch also carries PROFINET IO real-time traffic.
