FBS-SUB-9-GS-DP-B | Festo PROFIBUS Plug for CP Series
Festo FBS-SUB-9-GS-DP-B is a 9-pin PROFIBUS plug for CP series valve terminals and remote I/O nodes. It uses 2×2 spring-loaded terminals for quick wiring. The metal housing and seals give IP65/IP67 protection when assembled. DIL switches let you set the bus address and terminate the line. A switch-off function isolates the continued bus segment. This helps you service one node without shutting down the whole network.
This plug suits machine builders, system integrators, and maintenance teams. It fits PROFIBUS DP networks with fixed cable runs. The PA-reinforced housing, brass union nut, steel screws, and NBR seals resist dust, moisture, and vibration. It is RoHS compliant. The unit weighs only 60 g. Its compact size saves panel space.

- Interference resistance: Metal housing and shielded terminals reduce noise on the bus line.
Installation Guide
Mount the plug on a PROFIBUS node with a 9-pin sub-D port. Keep the cable diameter between 5 mm and 10 mm. Strip the cable jacket to the correct length. Insert the wires into the 2×2 spring-loaded terminals. Push the terminal down to clamp each wire. Tighten the brass union nut to seal the cable entry. Set the DIL switches for address and termination. Check the IP65/IP67 seal after assembly. Do not overtighten the screws.
Commissioning and Maintenance
Use the DIL switches to set the bus address. Use the switch-off function to isolate the continued bus segment. This makes fault finding easier. You can remove one node without stopping the full network. Inspect the seals during routine service. Replace damaged seals with NBR parts. Keep the housing clean and dry. Check the spring terminals for loose wires. Verify the shield connection. Log any bus errors for trend analysis.
Compatibility Notes
This plug works with Festo CP series valve terminals and remote I/O modules. It fits PROFIBUS DP networks. It also fits other devices with a standard 9-pin sub-D PROFIBUS port. The 2×2 spring-loaded terminals accept flexible and solid wires. Match the cable diameter to the permitted 5 … 10 mm range. Confirm the network data rate and termination before you install.
Certifications and Compliance
- RoHS: Conforms to RoHS material rules.
- Protection: IP65 and IP67 to IEC 60529 in assembled condition.
- UNSPSC: 27130000.
- Quality checks: Each unit is verified before shipment.

Typical Applications
- Festo CP valve terminals on PROFIBUS DP
- Remote I/O nodes in factory automation
- Packaging, assembly, and material handling lines
- Water treatment and process control panels
- Retrofit of obsolete PROFIBUS segments
Diagnostic Capabilities
The DIL switches help you set address and termination. The switch-off function isolates the continued bus segment. You can disconnect one node and keep the rest of the bus live. This reduces downtime during troubleshooting. Use a PROFIBUS tester to check signal quality. The metal housing helps shield against electrical noise.
