Cisco IE-3100-8P2C-E Catalyst Industrial Switch

The Cisco IE-3100-8P2C-E is a rugged industrial Ethernet switch from the Cisco Catalyst IE3100 series. It is designed for harsh environments and space-constrained industrial deployments such as factories, transportation systems, and smart infrastructure.

This model provides:

• 8 × Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) PoE+ ports
• 2 × Gigabit combo uplink ports (RJ-45/SFP)

With a PoE+ power budget of up to 240W, the switch can power devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and industrial sensors directly over Ethernet.

The IE-3100 runs on Cisco IOS XE, offering enterprise-grade security, automation, and programmability. It supports modern features like:

• Secure boot and trust anchor
• API-driven configuration
• Advanced Layer 2 switching and segmentation

Built for industrial environments, the switch supports:

• Wide temperature range (-40°C to +75°C)
• Resistance to shock, vibration, and humidity
• DIN-rail and wall mounting

It uses dual DC power inputs (9.6V–60V) for redundancy, ensuring continuous operation in mission-critical environments.

Typical use cases include:

• Industrial automation (PLC, SCADA)
• Smart cities and surveillance
• Transportation systems
• Oil & gas and utilities

Key Features:

• 8 × Gigabit PoE+ ports (240W budget)
• 2 × GE combo uplinks (RJ-45/SFP)
• Runs Cisco IOS XE (secure, programmable)
• Rugged industrial design (shock, vibration, temperature resistant)
• DIN-rail / wall mountable
• Dual DC power inputs for redundancy
• Advanced Layer 2 features and security
