The Siemens 6GK7543-6WX00-0XE0 is the CP 1543SP-1, an Industrial Ethernet communications processor for SIMATIC S7-ET 200SP systems. In addition to open Industrial Ethernet communication, it provides security functions including firewall and VPN capabilities. The module supports TCP/IP, ISO-on-TCP and UDP, PG/OP communication, S7 routing, IP broadcast/multicast, SNMPV1/V3, DHCP, secure email, IPv4/IPv6 and SINEMA Remote Connect with autoconfiguration. Industrial Ethernet communication operates at 10–100 Mbit/s through an ET 200SP Bus Adapter and integrated switch. The module operates from 24 V DC within a 19.2–28.8 V range, has 6 W power loss and IP20 protection, and supports 35 mm DIN-rail mounting. Dimensions are 60 × 117 × 74 mm with approximately 0.18 kg net weight.
