ESS-3300-CON-E is a conduction-cooled embedded switch mainboard with Network Essentials for Layer 2 operation. Eight Gigabit interfaces and two 10G uplink interfaces connect through board-to-board connectors; the host supplies the physical network connectors and enclosure. The Embedded Services 3300 family serves custom industrial networking applications. ESS-3300-NCP-E omits the cooling plate for integrators implementing their own thermal solution.
ESS-3300-CON-E price is $4,941.25. ESS-3300-CON-E is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

17W maximum mainboard draw sets the board-level power allocation before host electronics are added. Both 3.3V DC and 5V DC rails are required. ESS-3300-CON-E runs Cisco IOS XE with 4 GB DRAM and 4 GB onboard eMMC flash. Dynamic IP routing requires Network Advantage rather than the included software tier.
Specify ESS-3300-CON-E in new sealed or certified refurbished condition, and identify the required quantity and license configuration on the PO. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on, POST, rated-speed port links and clean boot, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. New units carry up to a 3-year extended warranty; certified refurbished units carry up to 1 year, with 30-day returns on every condition, terms apply. For enterprise and volume orders, ORM accepts POs, offers Net-30 for government and provides RMA with advance replacement across UK, EU, US and MEA regions.

Replaces | ESS-2020-CON / ESS-2020-CON-B; end of sale July 19, 2022 |
When replacing discontinued ESS-2020-CON or ESS-2020-CON-B boards, the migration target is ESS-3300-CON-E. Both predecessors ended sale on July 19, 2022. Before releasing the PO, specify the mainboard configuration and verify the host enclosure, interface connections and integration requirements.
When a new enclosure changes the heat-transfer path, validate the embedded board in a thermal chamber while traffic runs. Keep the monitored sensor below 90.5°C during validation, and include enclosure thermal verification in the integration acceptance plan before ordering production quantities.
PoE output without host power circuitry
ESS-3300-CON-E requires integrator-added circuitry for PoE. Endpoint power is not supplied by the mainboard alone; specify the host power implementation separately.
Dynamic routing under the included license
Network Essentials does not include dynamic IP routing. ESS-3300-CON-A supplies Network Advantage for applications requiring routed operation without a separate license upgrade.
