This 6ES7590-0CA00-0AA0 is the SIMATIC S7-1500 / ET 200MP slot cover that protects unused slots on the active backplane bus from ESD and provides mechanical fixing on the mounting rail. You need one per empty slot per the S7-1500 manual — no way around it. Rated from -40 °C to 70 °C, so it holds up in cold storage or hot cabinet conditions. IP20, meaning it's for dry indoor enclosures only. Packed five to a unit, so order in multiples of five unless you're filling a single slot.
