Cisco Catalyst IE3100 18-Ports Managed Rugged Switch

The Cisco IE-3100-18T2C-E is a managed switch created for industrial networks that demand reliable Gigabit performance in harsh environments. With eighteen Gigabit Ethernet ports and two combo Gigabit interfaces, it supplies the port density that production lines, utility substations, and transportation systems often require.

The housing is built for rugged use and withstands the shocks, vibrations, and temperature changes that are common on factory floors or inside roadside cabinets. A design that is compact and DIN rail mountable lets you snap the switch into a control panel or other confined space without special brackets or tools.

Because it is a managed platform, network teams can segment traffic with virtual LANs, apply quality-of-service rules, and monitor performance from a central console. These capabilities help keep critical machines online, reduce downtime, and simplify troubleshooting when every minute counts.

Whether you are wiring a single machine cell, expanding capacity in a remote substation, or rolling out a turnkey automation project, the IE3100 integrates easily into existing Cisco architectures and delivers consistent throughput where other switches might fail.
