Description

The Cisco IE-3500-8P3S-E is a rugged industrial Ethernet switch designed for harsh OT edge environments. It features 8 Gigabit PoE+ ports with 240W base power budget, 3x 1G SFP uplinks, and modular expansion capability up to 27 ports. Running Cisco IOS XE with Network Essentials license, it delivers Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching in a fanless, DIN-rail mountable IP30 enclosure rated for -40°C to 75°C operation.

Features

Layer 2 switching: VLANs, STP/RSTP/MSTP, LACP, LLDP
- Layer 3 routing: Static routing, inter-VLAN routing
- PoE/PoE+ support: IEEE 802.3af/at on all 8 copper ports, 240W base budget
- Industrial redundancy protocols: MRP (Media Redundancy Protocol), REP (Resilient Ethernet Protocol), DLR (Device Level Ring)
- Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN): IEEE 802.1Qbu frame preemption for reduced jitter
- Security features: IEEE 802.1X, TrustSec segmentation, Secure Boot with Trust Anchor Module
- Quality of Service (QoS): Advanced traffic prioritization and shaping
- Multicast support: IGMP snooping, PIM, multicast routing
- IPv6 ready: Full IPv6 support for future-proof deployments
- Precision Time Protocol (PTP): IEEE 1588v2 for time synchronization
- Modular expansion: Up to 27 total ports via IEM modules
- Alarm I/O: Configurable alarms for monitoring and external signaling
- Ruggedized design: Fanless, IP30, -40°C to 75°C operation
- Management flexibility: CLI, WebUI, SNMP, optional Cisco Catalyst Center integration
- ThousandEyes Enterprise Agent support: Network assurance and visibility

FAQs

Q: What license tier does the IE-3500-8P3S-E include?
A: The IE-3500-8P3S-E comes with the Network Essentials license, which provides Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching features suitable for industrial deployments. For advanced capabilities including Cisco Cyber Vision and Secure Equipment Access, the Network Advantage license (model IE-3500-8P3S-A) is available.

Q: Can I expand the port count beyond the base 11 ports?
A: Yes, the IE-3500-8P3S-E supports modular expansion using IEM (Industrial Ethernet Module) expansion modules. You can expand the switch up to a maximum of 27 ports by adding optional single-width or double-width expansion modules to the modular slot.

Q: What is the maximum PoE budget available for this switch?
A: The base PoE budget is 240W. By adding an optional PoE expansion module, you can increase the total PoE budget to 360W, allowing you to power more PoE+ devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and industrial sensors.

Q: Is this switch suitable for harsh industrial environments?
A: Absolutely. The IE-3500-8P3S-E is designed for industrial and OT edge deployments with a ruggedized IP30-rated enclosure, fanless convection cooling, wide operating temperature range (-40°C to 75°C), and hardened construction for shock, vibration, and electrical noise immunity.

Q: What power supply options are compatible with this switch?
A: The switch requires an external DIN-rail power supply (ordered separately) with dual DC power inputs supporting 12-54 VDC nominal voltage (range 9.6-60 VDC). For PoE operation, 54V is typical. Cisco offers various power supply options including those certified for hazardous locations.
