Cisco IE3500 IE-3500-8P3S-E 8 PoE+ 3 SFP | Industrial Switch — IE-3500-8P3S-E

Keep critical industrial traffic moving with a switch designed for edge environments that cannot tolerate downtime. The Cisco IE3500 IE-3500-8P3S-E combines 8 Gigabit PoE+ access ports with 3 Gigabit SFP uplinks, giving you local power delivery for endpoints and fiber-ready upstream connectivity in one compact platform. Its modular architecture supports deployment flexibility across plant floors, utility sites, transportation cabinets, and other distributed network segments where port mix and uplink options need to match the job. PoE+ support reduces the need for separate power injectors, while SFP uplinks help extend the network across longer distances and electrically noisy areas. This model is built for teams that need more than a basic access switch. It is suited to industrial networks where segmentation, resilient uplinks, and endpoint power are part of the design, not afterthoughts. For infrastructure groups standardizing on Cisco in operational environments, it offers a practical balance of access density, fiber expansion, and modular serviceability. Ideal For Power IP cameras, access points, and industrial endpoints in plant-floor cabinets Provide fiber uplinks for remote utility or transportation network segments Aggregate copper devices in control rooms and edge enclosures Standardize access switching for industrial sites that require PoE+ and SFP uplinks Why This Product 1 Adds PoE+ delivery for powered endpoints 2 Includes 3 SFP uplinks for fiber connectivity 3 Uses a modular industrial design for edge deployments 4 Better suited to powered devices than copper-only access switches
