The Cisco IE-2000-16TC-G-E is a high-density extended-temperature hardened fully managed Layer 2 industrial switch from the Cisco IE 2000 product line, an enhanced thermal variant of standard IE-2000-16TC-G built for extreme, unconditioned harsh OT environments with extreme hot/cold swings, dust, high humidity and strong electromagnetic interferenceCisco.
Model Suffix Breakdown
-
16T: Sixteen 10/100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet RJ45 downlink ports, non-PoE unpowered copper interfaces
-
C: Dual-media Gigabit combo uplink ports (shared RJ45/SFP dual media, single media active at one time; SFP takes priority when both media connected)
-
G: Gigabit-capable uplink interfaces, distinct from FE-only uplink IE-2000 Lite models
-
E: Extended wide-temperature industrial SKU with reinforced PCB thermal layout, optimized heat dissipation for stable long-term operation inside fully sealed unventilated cabinets
This industrial switch features IP30 rugged metal chassis, dual redundant isolated DC power inputs, high-grade reinforced EMC/EMI surge filtering, and wide extended temperature tolerance that outperforms standard-temperature IE-2000 models. It reliably operates in underground mining, offshore oil & gas, coastal roadside traffic enclosures, uncooled machine cabinets and power substation sealed control panels where standard industrial switches suffer overheating or cold-start failures.
Flexible multi-uplink architecture includes two Gigabit combo ports for short-distance copper links or long-haul fiber transmission via Gigabit SFP transceivers, plus two dedicated Fast Ethernet SFP slots for secondary fiber extension to central control room core switches. Preloaded full Cisco IOS LAN Base firmware with native IEEE 1588v2 Precision Time Protocol, it natively supports mission-critical industrial automation standards: REP Resilient Ethernet Protocol, PROFINET MRP, EtherNet/IP and Modbus TCP; Layer 2 NAT functionality can be unlocked via optional license upgrade for cross-subnet remote site IP translationCisco.
Equipped with industrial-grade ECC DDR2 DRAM and front hot-swappable SD flash storage, it delivers 10.4 Gbps non-blocking switching capacity and 7.8 Mpps wire-speed forwarding rate for 64-byte frames. Optimized low-latency packet buffering guarantees consistent transmission of real-time PLC motion control signals, mass multi-stream industrial surveillance video and high-volume distributed IIoT sensor data. Intelligent variable-speed fan dynamically adjusts rotation speed to balance thermal performance and acoustic noise under sustained heavy traffic loads.
