Security information
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines, and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions form one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. These systems, machines and components should only be
connected to the enterprise network or the Internet if and only to the extent necessary and
with appropriate security measures (firewalls and/or network segmentation) in place.
You can find more information on protective measures in the area of industrial security by
visiting: (https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly recommends performing product updates as soon as they are
available and using only the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no
longer supported, and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to
cyber threats.
To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS
Feed under (https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).
SIMATIC NET glossary
Explanations of many of the specialist terms used in this documentation can be found in the
SIMATIC NET glossary.

Recycling and disposal
The products are low in harmful substances, can be recycled and meet the requirements of
the Directive 2012/19/EU for disposal of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE).
Do not dispose of the products at public disposal sites.
For environmentally compliant recycling and disposal of your electronic waste, please contact
a company certified for the disposal of electronic waste or your Siemens representative.
Note the different national regulations.

Product features
NOTICE
Important information relating to the product
Some parts of the CP 1628 firmware are supplied by a third party. This third-party supplier
has informed us that they will no longer offer maintenance for the supplied software
components. This means that there is no monitoring regarding any future critical
vulnerabilities that may be exhibited by these software components. Siemens, therefore,
can no longer ensure that the firmware does not contain security-critical vulnerabilities for
all CP 1628 purchased after May 2021. Plus, any future security vulnerabilities can no longer
be published in a Security Advisory – due to the fact the Siemens no longer has any
knowledge of such vulnerabilities – and such vulnerabilities also are no longer removed.
However, the basic functionalities of the CP 1628 are not affected by these vulnerabilities.
The only difference is that there is no longer the full guarantee that the secure networks
used with the CP 1628 are fully protected. We therefore recommend that you implement a
state-of-the-art security concept for the entire plant (for more information, see the notes
under https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity). We especially recommend that you do
not secure the Internet access of the CP 1628 via the functions integrated into the product
but by using an additional security appliance, such as the SCALANCE SC. In this case, the
plant would be adequately protected even if there was a security-critical vulnerability in the
CP 1628.
The CP 1628 is a PCIe module for connecting PGs/PCs to Industrial Ethernet. The essential
properties are as follows:
•Two RJ-45 ports for Industrial Ethernet for connecting twisted-pair cables
•Can be used as a 2-port switch (both RJ45 connectors lead to the integrated switch)
•The following data rates are supported:
–10/100 Mbps (half/full duplex)
–1000 Mbps (full duplex)
•Own processor on the CP 1628 reduces the load on the PG/PC CPU.
•Autosensing, autocrossover, autonegotiation
•ISO and TCP/IP transport protocol onboard

•Encrypted firmware that is signed and transferred to the CP 1628
•Integrated security (firewall, VPN)
Note
All CP 1613 and CP 1623 software products can be operated with the CP 1628.
Hardware requirements
The CP 1628 requires a PCIe slot (PCI express x1; can also be operated in x4, x8 or x16 slots).
