Model Suffix Breakdown
-
16T: 16×10/100BASE-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 transceiver takes priority when both media are connected simultaneously)
-
G: Gigabit-capable uplink interfaces, differentiated from FE-only uplink IE-2000 Lite variants
-
X: Factory-applied conformal coating (Humiseal AR/UR UV40) on all PCB circuits; standard temperature thermal rating, native IEEE 1588v2 PTP included, Layer 2 NAT available via optional license upgradeCisco
This industrial switch features IP30 rugged metal chassis, dual redundant isolated DC power inputs, high-grade substation-level EMC/EMI surge filtering, and standard wide operating temperature range. The conformal coating fully protects circuit boards against moisture, salt fog, corrosive chemical gas, dust and condensation, preventing short circuits and premature hardware failure in corrosive industrial sites where uncoated switches cannot operate reliably long-term.
Multi-type uplink architecture includes two Gigabit combo ports for short-distance copper interconnection or long-haul fiber transmission via Gigabit SFP transceivers, plus two dedicated Fast Ethernet SFP slots for secondary fiber extension links 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 activated via separate license for cross-subnet remote site IP translationCisco.
Equipped with industrial 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.
