Cisco IE-3300-8P2S-E Catalyst IE3300 Series Rugged Switch – 8 x Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Ports, 2 x SFP Uplink Slots, Layer 3 Managed

Cisco IE-3300-8P2S-E Catalyst IE3300 Series Rugged Switch is a sophisticated and industrial-based networking product solution, which is designed to provide high speed connectivity safely and reliably in harsh conditions. The switch is based on an Internet of Things (IoT) and edge networking platform capable of operating in a small footprint and provides outstanding reliability, scalability, and flexibility to the industry automation, transportation, energy, and smart cities industries.

The Cisco IE-3300-8P2S-E has 8 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports and 2 SFP uplink slots that allow copper and fiber connections, and enable easy integration with hybrid network systems. It now has Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE +), which is very effective in powering the mechanical devices connected to it such as IP cameras, sensors and wireless access points without necessarily having their own power supply.

It is a fully Layer 3 manipulated switch that exhibits sophisticated routing, segmentation, and policy-animation of traffic administration to manage the risks of traffic as well as to uphold optimal traffic control. Cisco IOS XE operating system allows unified management to the enterprise and industrial networks, which has secure boot, MACsec encryptions and network automation through Cisco DNA Center.

The IE-3300-8P2S-E is designed to be resilient and is made with a rugged metal enclosure that can withstand extreme temperatures, vibrations, and electromagnetic interference. It is supported by DIN rail and wall mounting which enables it to be easily installed and in crowded field deployments or control cabinet installations.

This switch has no fan, therefore it produces a low noise and is more reliable due to passive cooling, thus making it the right choice in the environment where it has to operate silently. It has backup power clings and quick recovery mechanisms so that the service is not lost in the case of power surge and link outages.

Having its industrial certifications (EN, IEC, UL) the Cisco IE-3300-8P2S-E guarantees the continued functioning in the mission-critical applications. It has a wide operating temperature and strong surge suppression, which make it acceptable in the factory, substation and outdoor networking cabinets.

All in all, Cisco IE-3300-8P2S-E is an excellent security and performance product to be utilized in the industrial networking infrastructure with modern industrial settings as it offers a good balance of managers, scalability, and robustness.
