The Cisco Industrial Ethernet 2000 Series Switch (IE-2000-8TC-B) is a managed, industrial-grade switch designed to meet the demands of harsh operating environments. This specific model includes a total of 10 ports, with 8 Fast Ethernet ports and 2 Gigabit Ethernet combo uplinks for fibre or copper connectivity. Its robust design is suited for installation in industrial settings, such as factories and energy plants, ensuring reliable network connectivity in areas subject to extreme temperatures, vibrations, and electromagnetic interference.
The switch can be easily mounted on a DIN rail, making it convenient to install in control cabinets or other compact industrial setups. Despite its rugged design, the IE-2000-8TC-B switch supports familiar enterprise-class management interfaces such as CLI (Command-Line Interface) and web-based GUI, allowing for simple configuration and monitoring. The inclusion of advanced security features like Access Control Lists (ACLs), IEEE 802.1X authentication, and port security helps protect the network from unauthorized access.
The switch supports QoS (Quality of Service) features, making it ideal for environments requiring prioritised traffic for specific applications, such as real-time monitoring or voice-over-IP. It also includes support for industrial automation protocols like CIP (Common Industrial Protocol) and PROFINET, ensuring smooth communication between networked industrial devices. Furthermore, the dual-purpose uplink ports provide flexibility in connecting to different parts of the network, allowing for expanded network topologies. The Cisco IE-2000-8TC-B switch’s resilient design is certified for use in a variety of demanding settings, making it a reliable option for industrial Ethernet networks.
