IE-3300-8U2X-A — Industrial Switch Built for 10G Speed and High-Power Edge Connectivity
IE-3300-8U2X-A is Cisco's Catalyst IE3300 Rugged Series flagship answer to that reality, combining 8 Gigabit Ethernet copper ports with full 4PPoE (IEEE 802.3bt Type 3) support delivering up to 60W per port and two 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplink ports into a compact, DIN rail-mountable modular platform purpose-built for the harshest industrial environments. Whether it is powering 4K PTZ surveillance cameras on a factory floor, feeding Wi-Fi 6 access points across a smart city deployment, or anchoring high-bandwidth backhaul in an oil and gas field installation, this switch arrives with the power budget, uplink speed, and industrial hardening to handle it without compromise.
The combination of 4PPoE access and 10G uplinks in a single rugged platform is what genuinely sets this switch apart from anything in its class. With a total PoE power budget of 480W shared across all 8 copper ports, it eliminates the need for separate power injectors or external power supplies for demanding edge devices — simplifying cable runs, reducing cabinet clutter, and lowering total installation cost. The two 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplinks ensure that aggregated traffic from those devices reaches the core network without creating a backhaul bottleneck, even when multiple HD video streams, IoT sensor feeds, and real-time control traffic are flowing simultaneously.
Hardened to perform where conventional switches would not last a season, this switch operates reliably from -40°C to +75°C and is built on a fanless, convection-cooled die-cast chassis that eliminates moving parts as a failure point in vibration-heavy environments. It carries certifications for shock, vibration, surge, and electromagnetic noise immunity, and meets compliance requirements across manufacturing, energy, transportation, mining, and smart city deployments.
For organizations pursuing IT and OT convergence, the Network Advantage software license included with this switch unlocks a comprehensive enterprise-grade feature set directly at the industrial edge. Advanced dynamic routing protocols including OSPF, BGP, and EIGRP enable intelligent local routing decisions that reduce latency for real-time control systems, while MACsec encryption, 802.1x authentication, Dynamic ARP Inspection, and IP Source Guard deliver layered security across every connected endpoint.
