Cisco IE 3000 Switch, 8 10/100 2 TSFP | Industrial Ethernet, Managed — CON-SNC-C45X40XE

Keep critical industrial traffic moving with Cisco IE 3000 switching designed for edge deployments that need predictable performance and compact footprint. With 8 10/100 access ports and 2 TSFP uplinks, this switch supports local device connectivity while giving you flexible options for upstream aggregation or fiber-based links. The IE 3000 family is built for environments where network interruptions affect operations, not just convenience. It fits naturally into plant-floor, utility, and other distributed infrastructure designs that need managed switching at the edge. The port mix helps separate control, monitoring, and general traffic without forcing oversized hardware into a small cabinet. For teams standardizing on Cisco infrastructure, this model offers a practical balance of access density and uplink capability. It is a strong fit when you need a switch that can anchor a small industrial segment, connect legacy 10/100 devices, and preserve room for future network design choices. The result is a more controlled edge layer with the reliability expected from Cisco networking. Ideal For Connect controllers, HMIs, and other edge devices in a plant-floor cabinet Aggregate traffic from a small industrial cell to an upstream network Support legacy 10/100 endpoints in a mixed industrial environment Build a compact managed switch layer for distributed infrastructure Why This Product 1 Offers 2 TSFP uplink slots where basic access switches provide none 2 Supports industrial edge deployments instead of office-only networking 3 Provides 8 10/100 ports for legacy device connectivity 4 Fits compact control cabinets better than larger access switches
