Three independent PROFINET interfaces: two are IRT-capable with integrated 2-port switches, the third is a standard Ethernet port. This lets you separate safety-critical PROFIsafe traffic on one ring, standard I/O on another, and plant-wide IT connectivity on the third — no external switch or router needed for the isolation. The 0.6 ns bit performance rating means each logical operation completes in under a nanosecond. For a 100,000-instruction scan, that translates to roughly 60 µs theoretical cycle time — headroom for high-speed sorting, cam profiling, or coordinated motion on the same bus. ## Lifecycle and compliance — active production, EU-ready documentation Siemens lists this CPU as Active. No end-of-life notice, no last-time-buy window — it is a current catalog item with full factory support for new designs and field spares. RoHS compliance is confirmed effective 24-01-25. REACH Article 33 candidate-list information is available on request. Export control is AL N / ECCN EAR99H — no special license required for most commercial destinations. ## Sourcing — quoted against your BOM from authorized channels This is a current-production Siemens part, not a surplus pull. We quote it to order against your BOM quantity through authorized distribution — lead time and volume pricing confirmed at RFQ. Standard product class A means it is a stock item from Siemens; returns follow the standard guidelines if the order is cancelled within the window.","metaTitle":"Siemens 6ES7517-3FQ10-0AB0 CPU 1517F-3 PN, 6 MB / 50 MB","metaDescription":"Active Siemens CPU 1517F-3 PN with 6 MB program and 50 MB data memory, three PROFINET ports, failsafe-capable.

The 1517F-3 PN sits at the high end of the failsafe CPU range; a downgrade to the 1515F-2 PN would lose memory and one interface, while an upgrade to the 1518F-4 PN adds a fourth port and more memory but changes the form factor.
