Providing 6 Gigabit RJ45 downlinks and 2 fixed 1G/100M SFP uplinks, it delivers reliable line-rate performance in a rugged, fanless IP30 DIN-rail form factor. The module is powered by the host switch (10 W module consumption) and inherits IOS XE features, licensing, and management for seamless integration—ideal for right-sizing access where a compact copper/fiber combination is required. Key Features: 6 × Gigabit Ethernet Downlinks (Non-PoE): Cost-efficient port expansion for endpoints that don’t require inline power. 2 × 1G/100M SFP Uplinks: Flexible fiber connectivity for resilient aggregation/backbone links. Ruggedized, Fanless Design (IP30): Built for space-constrained industrial sites with DIN-rail mounting. Inherits IOS XE Features & Licensing: Operates as part of the IE3500 system for consistent L2/L3 capabilities. Easy Management: Managed (Cisco IOS XE WebUI/CLI; optional Cisco Catalyst Center). Technical Overview: Recommended for: Mixed copper/fiber port-density expansion on Cisco IE3500 deployments in industrial/harsh environments. Ports: 6 × 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 downlinks with 2 × 1G/100M SFP uplinks. PoE Budget: No PoE. Switching Capacity: — Forwarding Rate: Line-rate on all ports (all packet sizes). Management: Managed (Cisco IOS XE WebUI/CLI; optional Cisco Catalyst Center). Security: Inherits features and license tier from the base IE3500 switch. Energy Efficiency: Fanless operation; powered by base switch (module consumption 10 W). Show more
