Industrial PROFIBUS Fiberoptic Solution – Hirschmann OZDPROFI12MG12 | OZD PROFI Series
Where This Product Is Used
The Hirschmann OZDPROFI12MG12 is an OZD PROFI series fiberoptic PROFIBUS repeater/coupler designed for mission-critical industrial environments where electrical isolation, long-distance communication, and EMI immunity are non-negotiable. Typical deployment scenarios include:
- Automotive manufacturing plants – connecting PROFIBUS DP segments across paint shops and welding cells with high electromagnetic interference
- Chemical & petrochemical facilities – intrinsically safe zone separation via optical isolation between control rooms and field devices
- Power generation & utilities – linking PLCs, drives, and I/O stations across substations where ground potential differences exist
- Water treatment & SCADA systems – extending PROFIBUS networks over distances exceeding copper cable limits (up to 3 km per segment on multimode fiber)
- Steel mills & heavy industry – noise-immune data transmission in high-voltage environments
- Pharmaceutical & food processing – clean-room compatible fiber runs with no electrical interference to sensitive instrumentation

Complete System Bill of Materials
For a complete PROFIBUS fiberoptic segment, engineers typically pair the OZDPROFI12MG12 with:
- Multimode fiber patch cable (62.5/125 µm or 50/125 µm) with ST/BFOC connectors
- PROFIBUS DP master (e.g., Siemens CP 342-5, S7-300/400 IM)
- PROFIBUS DP slaves (drives, I/O modules, valve positioners)
- 24 V DC DIN rail power supply (e.g., Phoenix Contact QUINT series)
- PROFIBUS termination resistors (active bus terminal at segment ends)
- DIN rail, cable duct, and grounding accessories

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Can the OZDPROFI12MG12 be used in a PROFIBUS PA network?
A: No. This module is designed for PROFIBUS DP/FMS (RS-485 electrical interface). For PROFIBUS PA, a dedicated DP/PA segment coupler is required.
Q: What is the maximum number of nodes per fiber segment?
A: The OZD PROFI acts as a repeater; each RS-485 segment supports up to 31 nodes. Multiple OZD units can be cascaded to extend the network.
Q: Is the OZDPROFI12MG12 compatible with PROFINET?
A: No. This device is exclusively for PROFIBUS (IEC 61158). For PROFINET over fiber, a managed Industrial Ethernet switch with SFP ports is required.
Q: Does it support redundant fiber ring topology?
A: Yes. The dual fiber ports allow linear or ring configurations. Ring topology provides automatic fault recovery for high-availability applications.
Q: What fiber cable specification is required?
A: Multimode glass fiber, 62.5/125 µm or 50/125 µm, with ST/BFOC connectors. Maximum attenuation: 3.5 dB/km at 850 nm.
