Cisco IE Switch

Power up your industrial network with switches that work harder

Purpose-built for demanding operating conditions, the ruggedized Cisco industrial switches help you digitize operations, protect against cyberthreats, and reduce downtime.

The Cisco^® Industrial Ethernet (IE) Series Switches are compact rugged switches aimed at Operational Technology (OT) users with limited IT network knowledge. The IE 1000 Series Switches provide an easy transformation from the legacy factory to digital solution. For machine builders and Machine-To-Machine (M2M) solutions, it is an attractive entry level product as a GUI-based, lightly-managed switch. The IE Switches is a good fit for locations with harsh temperatures and small spaces and is Power over Ethernet (PoE) capable with zero IT management. The IE Switches is ideal for industrial Ethernet applications where small and easy-to-be-managed hardened products are required, including factory automation, intelligent transportation systems, city-surveillance programs, building automations etc. The Cisco IE Series Switches complement the current industrial Ethernet portfolio of related Cisco industrial switches, such as the Cisco IE 2000, IE 3000, IE 4000 and IE 5000 Series managed Switches. The IE Switches can be easily installed on your network. Through a user-friendly web device manager, the IE 1000 provides easy out-of-the-box configuration and simplified operational manageability to deliver advanced and secure multiservices over industrial networks.
