IE-3400-8T2S-E

The base system is equipped with 8 x 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 copper downlink ports and 2 x 100/1000 SFP fiber uplink ports for flexible backbone connectivity. Its modular architecture accepts IE3400/IE3300 expansion modules, enabling the switch to scale up to 26 ports of Gigabit Ethernet with copper, fiber, or PoE options without swapping the base chassis.

The fanless chassis operates reliably across an extended temperature range of –40°C to +75°C and is rated IP30 for protection against dust and solid objects. The switch accepts dual redundant DC power inputs (9.6–60 VDC) to maintain operation if one supply fails. It delivers 20 Gbps non-blocking switching capacity with a 14.88 Mpps forwarding rate. Platform resources include 4 GB DRAM, 1.5 GB flash, and an SD card slot for removable storage and backup.

Running Cisco IOS XE, the IE-3400-8T2S-E ships with a perpetual Network Essentials license, which supports Layer 2 switching, basic QoS, Flexible NetFlow, and hardware-based MACsec-128 encryption. Advanced industrial protocols include IEEE 1588v2 Precision Time Protocol, REP ring redundancy, MRP, and DLR. The platform supports Cisco IOx application hosting, enabling edge compute workloads, and is manageable via WebUI, CLI, or Cisco Catalyst Center for centralized automation and security monitoring. For requirements needing full Layer 3 routing or Cisco TrustSec segmentation, an upgrade to Network Advantage license is available.
