The Siemens 6ES7541-1AB00-0AB0 is a point-to-point (PtP) serial communications module for the S7-1500 automation system. It occupies one standard slot (35 mm wide) and requires 127 mm of cabinet depth. Power is drawn from the backplane bus at 0.6 W typ. Transmission rate reaches 115.2 kbit/s with support for 7 or 8 data bits, 1 or 2 stop bits, and configurable parity. The extended address area (1 to 65535) and 4-wire full-duplex connection make it suitable for multi-drop RS-422 networks. An 8 kbyte telegram buffer handles larger messages without host intervention.

Frequently asked questions
What are the module dimensions?
Width 35 mm, height 147 mm, depth 127 mm. This fits one slot on an S7-1500 rail.
Can the 6ES7541-1AB00-0AB0 replace an ET 200SP CM PtP module like 6ES7137-6AA01-0BA0?
No. The 6ES7541-1AB00-0AB0 is designed for the S7-1500 platform (mounting rail and backplane bus). ET 200SP modules require a different base unit and bus coupler; they are not mechanically or electrically interchangeable.
