The IE-3300-8T2S-A is made for use in factories, energy substations, smart cities, and transportation systems. It provides the reliability and performance you need to keep your most important operations running smoothly. The small, modular design lets you easily add more devices to your network as your needs change, making it the best platform for both your current needs and future growth.
Important Features and Advantages
Built to Last: Use with confidence in tough conditions. The fanless, convection-cooled chassis is tough enough to handle vibration, shock, electrical noise, and temperatures from -40°C to +75°C. It has no moving parts, so it lasts longer.
Connectivity that is fast and flexible: Begin with a solid base of eight 1-Gigabit Ethernet copper ports and two 1-Gigabit SFP uplink ports.
The modular design lets you add up to 26 ports as your business grows, so your network can keep up with demand.
Uninterrupted Operational Resilience: Keep your most important apps running as much as possible. The switch keeps working smoothly even if one of its power sources fails because it has two DC power inputs.
Advanced Security and Trust: Work on a platform that is safe and reliable. The switch runs on the next-generation Cisco IOS® XE operating system and has built-in security features like secure boot, image signing, and the Cisco® Trust anchor module to keep your network safe.
Easier Management and Visibility: Set up and keep an eye on things more easily with a set of powerful tools. You can easily set up the IE-3300 with a modern, easy-to-use WebUI and manage it with powerful tools like Cisco DNA Center and Cisco Industrial Network Director.

Details about the product
The Cisco Catalyst IE-3300-8T2S-A was built from the ground up to be strong and flexible in industrial and extended enterprise settings like warehouses, outdoor spaces, and distribution centers. Because it is built to be tough and doesn't have a fan, it can be used in places where standard networking equipment would be damaged by extreme temperatures, vibration, and electrical noise. This model comes with eight Gigabit Ethernet copper ports and two SFP ports for fiber uplinks. This gives you a good starting point with ten ports.
The switch's main operating system is Cisco IOS XE, which is powerful and secure. It has built-in trust features and an API-driven configuration system. The switch can handle data at line rate across all ports and packet sizes, so performance is reliable and efficient.
It can hold up to 8,000 MAC addresses and 256 VLANs, which lets you control and segment your network in detail.
The IE-3300-8T2S-A's real power comes from how modular it is. It is strong on its own, but it is also the foundation for a system that can grow. You can add optional expansion modules to your investment to make it future proof. This will raise the total number of ports to as many as 26. The redesigned, easy-to-use WebUI makes management simple and supports full management tools like Cisco DNA Center for in-depth network insights and control.
