Cisco Catalyst IE3300 Modulo switch di rete Gigabit Ethernet standard IEEE

The Cisco Catalyst IE3300 Rugged Series is a compact industrial network switch module providing up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity and modular expansion options. Designed for industrial IoT and extended enterprise deployments, the IE3300 supports up to 26 Gigabit ports or up to 24 Gigabit ports plus 2x 10 Gigabit ports depending on expansion modules. Built for harsh environments such as manufacturing, energy, transportation, mining, smart cities, oil and gas, warehouses and outdoor sites, the platform combines hardened hardware with Cisco IOS XE software, providing secure boot, image signing and the Cisco Trust Anchor Module. The module dimensions are approximately 152 mm (W) x 66 mm (D) x 135 mm (H) with typical power consumption around 9 W and support for multiple IEEE networking standards.

Advantages

The IE3300 offers flexible modular expansion, up to 10G uplinks, and PoE support to power IP cameras, phones, wireless access points and sensors. Running Cisco IOS XE, it provides built-in security features, API-driven configuration and integration with management tools such as Cisco DNA Center and the WebUI setup tool. Edge compute support for IOx applications and compatibility with the Cyber Vision sensor enable on-device industrial visibility and OT security monitoring. Full Flexible NetFlow support offers real-time traffic visibility for threat analysis.
