Active production — what that means for your BOM line
The 6ES7137-6BD00-0BA0: Firmware is at V2.2.2, and field updates are supported — the module can be upgraded in situ without replacing hardware.
IO-Link master with 4 ports — DI, DQ, and port types
This IO-Link master module fits the ET 200SP system and provides 4 ports, each configurable as IO-Link Class A or Class B. Class B ports supply 24 V DC via an external terminal for actuators that need separate load power, while Class A ports use the standard M12 pinout. Each port supports both DI (digital input) and DQ (digital output) functions, with DQ channels rated at max 100 mA per channel. The module also handles IO-Link protocol versions 1.0 and 1.1, with transmission rates up to 230.4 kBaud (COM3). Total output current for the module is 2.1 A max, with a per-channel rated value of 700 mA. The 24 V DC supply is shared across ports, so plan the load distribution accordingly.
Panel fit — BU type A0 and dimensions
The module mounts on a BU type A0 base unit, which determines the backplane bus connection and mechanical keying. Width is 13 mm, height 73 mm, depth 58 mm — a slim slice that fits tight DIN-rail layouts.
