Cisco-Catalyst IEM-3300-8T
The Cisco Catalyst IEM-3300-8T is an 8-port industrial managed Ethernet switch module designed for deployment in harsh industrial environments. It provides 8 × 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet ports and is designed to integrate directly with compatible Cisco Catalyst industrial routers, providing secure Layer 2/Layer 3 connectivity for industrial automation, transportation, utilities, and critical infrastructure networks.
Description
The Cisco Catalyst IEM-3300-8T is part of the Cisco Catalyst 3300 Series Industrial Ethernet Module family. It is designed to extend enterprise-grade networking capabilities into demanding industrial environments where reliability, ruggedness, and secure connectivity are essential.
The module provides 8 Gigabit Ethernet copper interfaces, supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps connectivity for industrial controllers, PLCs, sensors, cameras, automation equipment, servers, and other Ethernet-enabled devices.
Unlike a conventional standalone switch, the IEM-3300-8T is an integrated Ethernet module designed for installation in compatible Cisco Catalyst industrial routers. This architecture allows organizations to combine routing, security, WAN connectivity, and industrial Ethernet switching within a single platform.
The module supports Cisco IOS XE, providing enterprise switching and routing capabilities along with network security, QoS, VLANs, trunking, EtherChannel, and industrial network segmentation.
Designed for industrial deployments, the IEM-3300-8T supports a ruggedized operating environment and is suitable for applications where network equipment may be exposed to temperature variations, vibration, shock, electrical noise, and other challenging conditions.
The platform is designed to support industrial networking protocols and architectures used in operational technology (OT) environments, helping organizations connect industrial devices with enterprise IT infrastructure while maintaining appropriate segmentation and security controls.
