Siemens 6GK1415-2AA10 AS-Interface Link Module

The Siemens 6GK1415-2AA10 DP/AS-Interface Link 20E is a gateway that bridges PROFIBUS DP networks with AS-Interface (AS-i) devices, enabling AS-i sensors and actuators to be controlled from a Profibus DP master while conforming to AS-Interface specification V3.0. Marketed under SIMATIC NET as the DP/AS-Interface Link 20E, this module provides a dedicated DP/AS-Interface bridge and is listed in Siemens catalogs as 6GK1415-2AA10. The unit is IP20 protected, with physical dimensions of 90 x 80 x 60 mm (W x H x D) excluding fixing lugs, and it uses screw-terminal connections on the AS-i side for cable entry. Typical applications include integrating AS-i devices into a PROFIBUS DP control system on factory floors where Siemens automation infrastructure is already in place, providing seamless data exchange between AS-i and DP networks. The DP/AS-Interface Link 20E is designed to extend a SIMATIC NET installation by connecting AS-i field devices to a DP backbone, enabling centralized monitoring and control from a single engineering environment in accordance with AS-i V3.0.
