ABB’s ordering documentation identifies the 1 m version as PDP22-FBP.100 / 1SAJ240100R1010, with the adjacent .025, .050, .200, and .500 versions representing 0.25 m, 0.50 m, 2 m, and 5 m cable lengths.
Product Introduction
The ABB PDP22-FBP.100 is a PROFIBUS DP communication accessory in ABB’s FieldBusPlug system. It provides the physical and protocol interface between an FBP-compatible field device and the PROFIBUS DP network. Typical equipment includes ABB motor starters, motor control devices, and other FBP terminal devices. The 1 m integrated cable makes this version a defined cable-length option rather than a generic PROFIBUS connector.
The important engineering point is that the PDP22 is part of the FBP architecture, not a general-purpose PROFIBUS slave module. ABB describes the FieldBusPlug as the link between FBP devices and a PROFIBUS DP network, with diagnostic indication and a design that can keep the bus node connected during certain motor-control drawer exchanges.

Engineering Pain Point
A common replacement error is ordering a PDP22-FBP part based only on the PROFIBUS connector while ignoring the FBP device interface and cable length. The .100 version is specifically the 1 m configuration. Substituting a .050 or .200 version may be electrically similar but can create mechanical routing problems inside a motor control center or cabinet. More importantly, PDP22-FBP.100 should not be treated as a standalone PROFIBUS-to-Ethernet or PLC communication module; it is an FBP fieldbus interface intended for compatible ABB equipment.
Typical Applications
- ABB motor control centers: PROFIBUS connection for compatible ABB FBP motor starters.
- Distributed motor control: Links individual FBP field devices to the plant PROFIBUS DP network.
- Low-voltage switchgear: Used where ABB FBP-compatible switching and motor-control equipment requires PROFIBUS communication.
- Legacy PROFIBUS automation systems: Provides DP-V0/DP-V1 connectivity for installed FBP architectures.
Technical Pitfalls to Avoid
- Confirm the cable-length suffix.
.100means 1.00 m. Do not substitute.050,.200, or.500simply because the PROFIBUS function appears identical. ABB assigns separate order codes to each cable length. - Verify the complete ABB part number.
The documented ordering number for this exact model is 1SAJ240100R1010. This is the identifier worth matching during procurement rather than relying only on the abbreviated model name. - Do not confuse with PDQ22.
is the standard PROFIBUS DP FieldBusPlug arrangement for an FBP device. PDQ22 is a different FieldBusPlug design intended to connect multiple devices through one PROFIBUS node access. - Check PROFIBUS termination separately.
The FieldBusPlug documentation specifies PROFIBUS operation up to 12 Mbit/s with correct termination and bus-length limits. The FBP connector itself should not be assumed to replace the required end-of-line termination arrangement. - Inspect the M12 connection and cable condition.
The family uses an A-coded M12 connection. In older MCC installations, mechanical damage, loose connections, and degraded cable routing can create intermittent PROFIBUS faults that initially look like device or PLC problems. - Preserve the existing PROFIBUS configuration.
Replacing the FieldBusPlug normally does not eliminate the need to verify the connected device’s PROFIBUS address, GSD configuration, I/O mapping, and master-side diagnostics.

Procurement Note
For an exact replacement, specify ABB .100, 1SAJ240100R1010 and verify the physical FBP device interface, 1 m cable requirement, M12 connector condition, PROFIBUS address, and existing master configuration.
One important distinction: .100 is a fieldbus interface accessory, not the motor starter or PROFIBUS master itself. If the failure is being diagnosed at the network level, test the PROFIBUS segment, termination, device address, and connected FBP equipment before condemning the FieldBusPlug.
