ESS-3300-24T-NCP-E is a small-form-factor, board-level industrial switch bundle for integration into custom equipment, not a finished appliance. The mainboard and expansion board provide 24 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces and two fixed 10G uplink interfaces, with Network Essentials supplying Layer 2 switching. Network connections reach the host design through board-to-board connectors rather than factory-installed front-panel jacks or transceiver cages. The Embedded Services 3300 family serves custom defense, transportation, mining, and oil-and-gas equipment where the carrier defines the external connections and enclosure. ESS-3300-24T-CON-E retains the same board arrangement but includes cooling plates. This 24-port Gigabit embedded switch leaves the thermal implementation to the integrator and does not provide onboard PoE delivery. The finished system's physical interfaces must be specified separately from the board bundle.

Line-rate forwarding covers every port and packet size for the carrier's Ethernet data paths. 256 VLAN IDs separate traffic domains, while eight queues support policing, shaping and prioritization controls. MACsec-128 protects supported 1G downlinks rather than the 10G uplink interfaces. ESS-3300-24T-NCP-E uses 4 GB DRAM and 4 GB onboard flash for the operating image and configuration storage. Web UI and IOS CLI access sit alongside SNMP, NETCONF and RESTCONF for management and automation; console signals include RS-232 and USB. RSTP, MSTP and Resilient Ethernet Protocol (REP) handle Layer 2 resiliency, while IGMP snooping controls multicast forwarding. DHCP snooping, dynamic ARP inspection and IP source guard provide the accompanying access-security controls. PTP v2 timing operates on 1G ports only; 10G uplinks do not provide that function. 24W maximum board power establishes the electronics allocation before host circuitry and endpoint power are sized.
ESS-3300-24T-NCP-E is available new sealed or certified refurbished from ORM Systems; refurbished boards are inspected and bench-tested for power-on, POST, rated-speed links on every port and clean boot, with firmware verified and configurations wiped to factory default. Specify the condition and quantity on the purchase order. ORM warranties provide up to a 3-year extended term for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units; every condition includes 30-day returns, terms apply. Enterprise and volume orders can use POs, government Net-30 and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA in the UK, EU, US and MEA.

When replacing a discontinued ESS-2020-24TC-NCP or ESS-2020-24TC-NCPB inside an existing custom product, treat the migration as a host-system integration project. The replacement changes the Ethernet interfaces available to the integrator. Specify carrier compatibility, connector routing and the required software entitlement before the purchase order.
When the host product needs both copper and fiber endpoints, eight Gigabit channels can be implemented as combo interfaces: four on each board. Those are shared media choices, not additional independent ports. Allocate the carrier's front-panel connections and select the required copper-versus-fiber population before ordering the bundle.
During engineering validation, separate routine configuration resets from destructive zeroization. The erase-all action removes the boot image and license keys, so restoration requires software recovery and relicensing rather than merely reconnecting management. Specify image-recovery access and Smart Account responsibility before ordering units for staging.
Ready-to-connect front-panel Ethernet ports
The bundle exposes network and power signals through board-to-board connectors rather than a finished front panel. A carrier, external connectors and enclosure integration are required.
Dynamic routing without a license upgrade
Network Essentials provides Layer 2 switching; dynamic IP routing requires Network Advantage. ESS-3300-24T-NCP-A supplies that tier while retaining the same no-cooling-plate board configuration.
Factory-installed conduction cooling plates
ESS-3300-24T-NCP-E omits the cooling plates and requires an integrator-designed thermal solution. ESS-3300-24T-CON-E includes cooling plates with the same mainboard-plus-expansion arrangement.

ESS-3300-24T-NCP-E identifies an Embedded Services 3300 mainboard-plus-expansion bundle with Network Essentials. ESS-3300 names the family; 24T denotes the expanded 24-Gigabit-interface configuration; NCP means no cooling plate; E selects Network Essentials. The mainboard contributes eight Gigabit interfaces and the expansion board contributes sixteen.
ESS-3300-24T-NCP-E supports Web UI, IOS CLI through SSH or Telnet, RS-232 and USB console, SNMP, NETCONF, RESTCONF, Industrial Network Director and Cisco Prime. Console and network connections must be exposed by the carrier. The bundle does not include a finished management front panel.
Network Essentials is included with ESS-3300-24T-NCP-E, and ESS3300-NW-A= supplies the Network Advantage upgrade. Network Advantage adds IP routing, VRF-lite, IP multicast routing and MACsec-256 capabilities. Network Advantage entitlement is separate from the interfaces supplied by the bundle; the E-suffix order does not activate those additional features.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Embedded Services 3300. Software-release retirement dates are separate from hardware lifecycle dates. An end-of-sale announcement for an IOS XE release does not by itself discontinue the hardware, and purchasing decisions should keep those two lifecycles separate.
New sealed and certified refurbished ESS-3300-24T-NCP-E units are offered by ORM Systems. Cisco's hardware warranty is a 1-year Limited Hardware Warranty. ORM's warranty is up to a 3-year extended term for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units. Every condition includes 30-day returns; terms apply.
ESS-3300-24T-NCP-E replaces the discontinued ESS-2020-24TC-NCP and ESS-2020-24TC-NCPB. Both predecessors reached end-of-sale on July 19, 2022, with their last date of support on July 31, 2027. The migration changes Fast Ethernet expansion interfaces to Gigabit interfaces and adds 10G uplinks; host-system compatibility still requires validation.
No, the Embedded Services 3300 board bundle does not deliver PoE without host-board PSE circuitry. A host design using PD69208MILQ-TR-LE can provide software-controlled PoE, with a supported endpoint-power ceiling of 720W. Available power depends on the integrator's supply. External injectors do not substitute for that host-board control integration.
ESS-3300-24T-NCP-E omits cooling plates, whereas ESS-3300-24T-CON-E includes them. Both bundles contain a mainboard and expansion board with Network Essentials. The NCP version suits integrators implementing their own thermal solution; the CON version suits equipment using the supplied plates as part of its conduction-cooling design.
ESS-3300-24T-NCP-A includes Network Advantage, while ESS-3300-24T-NCP-E includes Network Essentials. Network Advantage adds routing capabilities including OSPF, EIGRP and ISIS; Network Essentials supplies the Layer 2 feature set. The E version suits bridging requirements, while the A version suits host systems requiring those licensed IP-routing functions.
ESS-3300-24T-NCP-E includes the expansion board for 24 Gigabit interfaces, while ESS-3300-NCP-E supplies the mainboard with eight Gigabit interfaces. Both retain two 10G uplink interfaces and Network Essentials. The expanded bundle suits higher-interface-count host designs; the mainboard-only version suits equipment requiring the smaller eight-interface configuration.
