Product Overview

The SCALANCE SC646-2C is an industrial security appliance with four fixed Gigabit RJ45 ports, two copper/SFP combo interfaces, a serial diagnostic port and redundant 24 V DC power input.

Firewall, VPN, NAT/NAPT and secure remote-access functions support segmented automation networks. Two combo interfaces can use either their electrical RJ45 connection or a compatible SFP optical transceiver. Redundant DC inputs and a signaling contact support cabinet integration and monitored operation.

Ordering focus: confirm the exact SC646-2C variant, interface layout, SFP types, power arrangement, firmware, licenses, security configuration and recoverable certificates.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should an SFP be installed in 6GK5646-2GS00-2AC2?

Install a compatible optical transceiver when the selected combo interface must connect to fiber rather than its copper RJ45 port.

Can both sides of one combo interface on 6GK5646-2GS00-2AC2 be active together?

No; each combo interface uses either its electrical connection or its SFP connection as configured.

Which supply range is permitted for 6GK5646-2GS00-2AC2?

The DC input must remain between 9.6 and 31.2 V, with the nominal system selected for 12 or 24 V operation.

How does mounting orientation affect 6GK5646-2GS00-2AC2?

Horizontal mounting supports operation up to 70 °C, while the upper limit for vertical mounting is 65 °C.

What should be exported before replacing 6GK5646-2GS00-2AC2?

Back up the firewall rules, routing, NAT, VPN, users, certificates, IP settings and remote-access configuration.

How can the signaling contact on 6GK5646-2GS00-2AC2 be used?

Wire it within the stated 12 to 24 V DC and 100 mA limits to report configured fault conditions to the control system.

What commissioning checks are essential for 6GK5646-2GS00-2AC2?

Verify interface zones, allowed traffic, VPN peers, time settings, certificates, redundant power and recovery access before cutover.

Compatibility & Ordering Notes
Before ordering 6GK5646-2GS00-2AC2: confirm the exact SC646-2C variant, interface layout, SFP types, power arrangement, firmware, licenses, security configuration and recoverable certificates.

Compatibility Checklist

  • Select only SFP modules approved for the chosen optical medium and operating conditions.
  • Export configuration, certificates and keys before exchanging the appliance.
  • Revalidate firewall, VPN, NAT, routing and remote-access behavior after commissioning.
