At a Glance

Brand	Siemens
Model	6GK5992-4SA00-8AA0
Product Type	Copper Ethernet media module
Core Function	Expand modular switch network connections
Application	SCALANCE XR528-6M and XR552-12M

Four copper interfaces

RJ45 ports support 10, 100 and 1000 Mbit/s Ethernet connections.

Modular rack integration

The media module inserts into a supported SCALANCE XR-500M switch slot.

Standard RJ45 socket form

The 4CU version has no securing collars, distinguishing it from the 4CUC version.

Product Overview

6GK5992-4SA00-8AA0 is the MM992-4CU copper media module for SCALANCE XR-500 modular Industrial Ethernet switches. It provides four electrical RJ45 ports for connecting equipment to the switch through copper network cables.

The module is used with SCALANCE XR528-6M and XR552-12M basic devices, which supply the module and provide the system protection, signaling contacts and network-management functions.

Ordering focus: Select the 4CU socket version without securing collars, then match the supported switch slot and the cable construction to the required link distance.

Key Functions

Add copper network connections

Four 10/100/1000 Mbit/s RJ45 ports expand the available electrical interfaces of the modular switch.

Integrate with the modular switch chassis

The media module obtains its supply and operating environment from the supported SCALANCE XR-500M basic device.

Commission the inserted port group

Insert the module before assigning its port parameters because newly inserted module ports begin with factory-default settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which SCALANCE basic switches accept 6GK5992-4SA00-8AA0?

The media module can be used in SCALANCE XR528-6M and XR552-12M basic devices.

Does 6GK5992-4SA00-8AA0 support Modular rack integration for mobile equipment?

No, the 4CU version provides RJ45 sockets without securing collars.

Can I use 6GK5992-4SA00-8AA0 as a standalone four-port switch?

No, the module must be installed in a supported modular SCALANCE XR-500M basic device.

When should I configure the ports of 6GK5992-4SA00-8AA0?

Insert the module first and then assign the port parameters because newly inserted module ports use factory defaults.

How far can I connect a standard copper cable from 6GK5992-4SA00-8AA0?

A specified IE FC TP standard cable with IE FC RJ45 Plug 180 connections permits a link length of up to 100 m.

Does 6GK5992-4SA00-8AA0 need a separate external DC power connector?

No, the media module is supplied through the basic switch.

Can I leave neighboring module slots empty while operating 6GK5992-4SA00-8AA0?

No, unused module slots must be closed with dummy covers so that the basic device retains its specified protection.

Compatibility & Ordering Notes

Before ordering 6GK5992-4SA00-8AA0: Confirm the supported XR-500M chassis and the required RJ45 socket construction, and include covers for unused slots and cables appropriate to the required link length.

Compatibility Checklist for 6GK5992-4SA00-8AA0

• Use this 4CU version when securing collars are not required.
• Insert the module fully using its handle and secure it as required by the switch installation.
• Assign the port parameters after module insertion.
• Keep every unused chassis slot closed with a suitable dummy cover.
