The 6ES7460-4AA01-0AB0 is a SIMATIC S7-400 Send IM 460-4 interface module for distributed coupling — it's the replacement part for the earlier revision, designed to link racks over distances up to 605 m between adjacent interface modules without the C bus. It draws up to 1 550 mA from the 5 V DC backplane bus and dissipates a maximum of 7 750 mW, so the rack power budget needs headroom for that draw when slotting it in.
