ABB SSBIET80000000 and SSBIET800A0000 are Basic and Advanced Security License Key ordering references associated with the IET800 communication module in ABB Bailey Harmony and Symphony Plus control systems. The manufacturer’s SPICI800 interface documentation identifies these two software license options for the IET800. This variable product allows customers to select the required license reference and request confirmation of entitlement, delivery method and compatibility.
Industrial control system maintenance requires accurate identification of both physical hardware and its associated software authorization. A communication module, a security license and a complete interface kit are different purchasing items. For this reason, this page focuses on the license keys rather than presenting them as replacement circuit boards or complete communication assemblies.
ABB SSBIET80000000 IET800 Basic Security License Key Overview
The ABB IET800 is used in a computer interface arrangement for compatible Harmony control networks. The documented SPICI800 enhanced Cnet-to-computer interface combines an IET800 Ethernet communication module with an associated network interface. Within this architecture, the IET800 requires a valid software license for its intended operation.
ABB’s interface manual identifies the Basic Security License Key under ordering reference SSBIET80000000 and the Advanced Security License Key under reference SSBIET800A0000. These references identify license options rather than a generic Ethernet adapter, a new controller or an industrial network switch.
The correct license should be selected according to the installed IET800 hardware, existing system configuration and the required authorized functionality. Buyers should not assume that purchasing a license automatically includes the IET800 module, a mounting unit, a network interface or other physical components.
Software entitlement arrangements can depend on the manufacturer, original purchase record and applicable license terms. Before placing an order, customers should confirm whether a new entitlement can be issued for the specific installation and what evidence or equipment identification the supplier requires.
Available Models: SSBIET80000000 and SSBIET800A0000
| Part Number | License Description | Ordering Considerations |
|---|---|---|
| SSBIET80000000 | IET800 Basic Security License Key | Confirm the target IET800 module, existing entitlement status and authorized delivery method. |
| SSBIET800A0000 | IET800 Advanced Security License Key | Confirm the specific advanced entitlement requirements and manufacturer authorization before purchase. |
IET800 Security License Purpose and Scope
The IET800 participates in communication between a compatible control network and a host computer. Its documented software license requirement is part of the overall interface configuration. A valid license is therefore an important procurement consideration when commissioning, replacing or maintaining the communication hardware.
In the SPICI800 interface documentation, ABB identifies the Basic and Advanced license keys as separately ordered items. This means the purchase scope of an IET800 communication module should be checked independently from the scope of its software authorization.
A product photograph showing a physical IET800 board and an ABB-labeled box does not establish that a license entitlement is present, unused, transferable or included in the sale. The supplier should confirm the actual deliverable in writing. A physical module may be shown for product identification, but the licensed software entitlement remains a separate matter.
For technical background on ABB’s communication architecture, consult the ABB Symphony Plus Product Catalog. The catalog provides manufacturer information about related communication hardware; license-specific terms should be confirmed separately.
Key Purchasing Considerations
Clearly Identified License Options
The two selectable references distinguish Basic from Advanced Security License Key ordering requirements. Recording the complete code helps procurement teams avoid confusing a software authorization with a physical spare part.
Compatibility with Existing Equipment
Before ordering, identify the target IET800 module and its relevant hardware or firmware details. The complete control system configuration may also be important when confirming whether a particular license entitlement is appropriate.
Entitlement and Delivery Verification
Ask the supplier to specify what will actually be delivered. Depending on the applicable manufacturer licensing arrangement, the deliverable may differ from a conventional boxed hardware product. Do not assume that a printed label or an image of an IET800 module represents a usable license.
Accurate Scope of Supply
A license-only quotation should not be interpreted as including the SPIET800 or IET800 communication module, the SPICI800 interface kit, associated cables or termination hardware. These items should be listed separately when required.
Traceable Procurement Information
Keep the original purchase documentation, supplier quotation and applicable entitlement information together with the system maintenance records. Clear records can help engineers and purchasing teams identify what was supplied and what may be required for future service.
Industrial Applications
ABB Bailey Harmony and Symphony Plus communication equipment can be found in established industrial process control environments. Facilities maintaining these systems may need to review IET800 licensing as part of a planned maintenance project, communication hardware replacement or system configuration assessment.
Relevant industrial sectors include power generation, chemical processing, oil and gas, pulp and paper, and other process manufacturing facilities. These examples describe potential maintenance environments rather than establishing universal product compatibility.
The applicable license depends on the actual equipment and its authorized configuration. Customers should consult the original system records and manufacturer guidance instead of selecting a license based only on the industry or the appearance of the communication module.
How to Select the Correct ABB IET800 Security License
Step 1: Confirm the Part Number
Determine whether the requested license is SSBIET80000000 or SSBIET800A0000. Check the maintenance request, original purchase record and any available manufacturer documentation. Avoid substituting one code for the other without confirmation.
Step 2: Identify the Target Module
Record the IET800 module designation and any available hardware or firmware information. If the request is associated with a complete SPICI800 interface, clarify which component or license requires replacement.
Step 3: Check the Existing Entitlement
Ask the system owner or authorized technical team to confirm whether the installation already has a valid license and whether a new purchase is necessary. Licensing questions should be resolved through legitimate manufacturer or authorized supplier channels.
Step 4: Verify Basic or Advanced Requirements
Confirm which license option is specified for the installation. Do not assume that Advanced is automatically necessary or that it can be used as a direct substitute for Basic under every licensing arrangement.
Step 5: Request Written Supply Terms
Before payment, obtain written confirmation of the entitlement type, permitted use, delivery method, lead time and any applicable restrictions. If a physical product is also required, identify it as a separate line item.

What is ABB SSBIET80000000?
SSBIET80000000 is the ABB IET800 Basic Security License Key ordering reference identified in the SPICI800 interface documentation. It refers to a software license requirement rather than an individual communication circuit board.
What is ABB SSBIET800A0000?
SSBIET800A0000 is the corresponding Advanced Security License Key reference. Customers should confirm the exact authorized features and licensing terms before ordering.
Does a security license include an IET800 module?
Not automatically. A license entitlement and a physical communication module are different items. The formal quotation must state whether any hardware is included.
Can a Basic license be replaced with an Advanced license?
Any upgrade, substitution or entitlement change must follow the applicable ABB licensing conditions. This page does not establish an automatic upgrade path.
Is a license key transferable between modules?
Transfer rights cannot be assumed. Customers should confirm the relevant entitlement terms and obtain appropriate manufacturer authorization where required.
What information is required for a quotation?
Provide the exact license reference, quantity, target IET800 hardware information and delivery destination. Include any existing license or purchase documentation that can lawfully be shared for verification.
