Features:
- GSM/GPRS communication for SIMATIC S7-1200
- 850, 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz bands
- SMA antenna connection and GPRS Multislot Class 10
The Siemens 6GK7242-7KX30-0XE0 is a SIMATIC NET CP 1242-7 communication processor for connecting compatible SIMATIC S7-1200 stations through GSM/GPRS mobile networks. The processor supports the 850, 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz frequency bands. GPRS operation is specified as Multislot Class 10. An SMA socket with 50-ohm impedance provides the connection for the required antenna system.
The specified supply range is 19.2-28.8 V DC, with typical current consumption of 100 mA. Typical power loss is 2.4 W, and the device provides IP20 protection. The compact housing measures 30 x 100 x 75 mm according to the official operating instructions. Communication performance depends on the supported mobile network, antenna arrangement and configured connection parameters.
This model should be matched with the intended S7-1200 CPU, mobile-network service and antenna installation described in the Siemens manual. Commissioning should verify the SIM-related settings, network availability, signal conditions and project configuration. Supply wiring, grounding and enclosure conditions must also follow the official instructions. Siemens identifies this order number as discontinued and deleted without a replacement, so installed-system compatibility should be confirmed before sourcing.
Siemens identifies the 6GK7242-7KX30-0XE0 as discontinued, with lifecycle ending on 1 July 2022 and deletion without replacement. Apter Power can assist with official documents, installed-system verification and sourcing inquiries; stock and lead time require confirmation.
