IE-3100-8T2C-E is a fanless, managed industrial switch with eight Gigabit Ethernet copper access ports and two fixed Gigabit combo uplinks. DIN rail mounting places the chassis inside industrial cabinets rather than a conventional equipment rack. Each uplink selects copper or fiber, with its paired interfaces sharing one connection. The Cisco Catalyst IE3100 Rugged series serves manufacturing, energy, transportation and other industrial networks requiring hardened equipment. Network Essentials supplies Layer 2 switching with static and inter-VLAN routing, making this configuration Layer 2+. The access ports carry data without supplying endpoint power; IE-3100-8P2C-E adds PoE+ to the same access-port and uplink arrangement. The fixed hardware configuration does not provide a removable uplink-card bay, so port expansion requires a different hardware configuration.
IE-3100-8T2C-E price for new stock is $1,745.10, a 39.8% saving from the Cisco list price of $2,900.00. IE-3100-8T2C-E refurb price is $2,500.37. IE-3100-8T2C-E is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

14.88 Mpps forwarding performance is measured with 64-byte packets, while 10 Gbps forwarding bandwidth defines the forwarding envelope for this configuration. 17.7W power consumption provides the basis for cabinet thermal-load and battery-capacity planning; electrical supply sizing also requires input-current and inrush allowances. IE-3100-8T2C-E pairs 4 GB of DRAM with 1.5 GB of user-accessible flash for running and storing its software. Address learning accommodates 8000 unicast MAC entries, while 256 VLANs establish the segmentation limit. STP, RSTP and MSTP control Layer 2 loops, and LACP supports link aggregation. The Catalyst IE3100 feature set includes REP and MRP for industrial ring redundancy, alongside EtherNet/IP, Modbus and PROFINET integration. Two dry-contact alarm inputs and one relay output connect fault signaling to external equipment. L2NAT is absent from this configuration.
IE-3100-8T2C-E is available new sealed or certified refurbished; state condition, quantity and accessories on the PO. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, including rated-speed links on every port and optics bay recognition, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. ORM provides new units with up to a 3-year extended warranty and certified refurbished units with up to 1 year; every condition has 30-day returns, terms apply, separately from Cisco's five-year limited hardware warranty. POs are accepted, government buyers receive Net-30, and volume orders can specify regional stock and RMA handling across the UK, EU, US and MEA, including advance replacement.

When retiring discontinued IE-2000-8TC-G-L equipment, distinguish the hardware migration from the existing software configuration. That predecessor reached end of sale on July 26, 2024. Inventory its enabled features, field wiring and enclosure connections, then specify the required configuration and connection materials before the PO.
For a bench-staging batch, reserve port Gi1/3 for Express Setup rather than using the serial console for that workflow. A browser session establishes the initial management settings before the unit leaves staging. Specify the staging connection method and capture the intended management addressing before the PO.
For a cabinet rollout, allow 25.4 mm of thermal clearance above, below and beside each unit. Space for the housing alone does not establish a usable installation envelope. Include port access, cable bend space and reachable power connections in the layout, then check the enclosure arrangement before the PO.
PoE-powered endpoint connections
IE-3100-8T2C-E supplies no endpoint power. IE-3100-8P2C-E provides eight PoE+ downlinks with a 240W budget; size the power source around the required endpoint load.
Layer 2 network address translation
IE-3100-8T2C-E does not support L2NAT. IE-3105-8T2C-E adds 1:1 Layer 2 network address translation while retaining eight copper access ports and two Gigabit combo uplinks.
10G uplinks to distribution
IE-3100-8T2C-E terminates its fixed copper and fiber uplinks at 1G. A design requiring 10G distribution connections exceeds the supported speed of these uplink interfaces.

IE-3100-8T2C-E identifies the Catalyst IE3100 configuration: IE-3100 names the industrial switch family, 8T means eight Gigabit copper access ports, 2C means two Gigabit combo uplinks, and E means Network Essentials. The part number specifies the data-only configuration rather than a PoE model.
IE-3100-8T2C-E supports WebUI, Cisco IOS XE CLI over SSH, Telnet or console, SNMP, NETCONF, RESTCONF, Cisco Catalyst Center, CIP tools and PROFINET automation software. RJ-45 and Micro USB console connections provide local access; Siemens STEP 7 and TIA Portal provide PROFINET management, while Catalyst Center uses optional Essentials licensing.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst IE3100 Rugged. Software releases and removable storage have separate lifecycle announcements that do not discontinue this hardware. For replacement planning, distinguish a switch hardware end-of-sale announcement from the retirement of a software release or an optional storage accessory.
IE-3100-8T2C-E is offered new sealed or certified refurbished. Cisco's platform warranty is five-year limited hardware coverage; ORM provides up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units. Every condition has 30-day returns, terms apply. Refurbished units are inspected, bench-tested, firmware verified and wiped to factory default.
IE-3100-8T2C-E includes perpetual Network Essentials; optional Cisco Catalyst Center Essentials licensing starts with a one-year term. IE3100-DNA-E-L-1Y covers switches with up to 12 ports, with three-, five-, seven- and ten-year terms also available. The management subscription does not replace the network tier or become mandatory on an ORM order.
IE-3100-8T2C-E replaces discontinued IE-2000-8TC-B, IE-2000-8TC-G-B, IE-2000-8TC-G-E, IE-2000-8TC-G-L, IE-2000-8TC-L and IE-2000U-8TC-G. All six reached end of sale on July 26, 2024. Their legacy software tiers differ, so reconcile enabled features before treating the replacement as an identical configuration.
IE-3100-8T2C-E provides two shared-media Gigabit uplinks, each selecting copper or SFP rather than operating both simultaneously. The SFP interface wins by default when both media are active. For a mixed-media connection plan, identify which interface should carry each uplink and set the media preference explicitly.
IE-3100-8T2C-E accepts dual DC feeds at 12-48V nominal, with a 9.6-60V absolute input range. The inputs operate in active-standby mode, and the higher-voltage feed powers the switch. Specify the DC source, wiring and protection rather than assuming an AC power cord connects directly to the chassis.
IE-3100-8P2C-E powers eight PoE+ access ports with a 240W budget, while IE-3100-8T2C-E provides data-only access ports. Both retain two Gigabit combo uplinks. The non-PoE configuration suits independently powered endpoints; the PoE+ configuration suits endpoint-power orders that also specify an appropriately sized DC source.
IE-3100-8T4S-E has four dedicated Gigabit SFP uplinks, while IE-3100-8T2C-E has two Gigabit combo uplinks sharing copper and SFP media. The combo configuration suits connections requiring copper or fiber selection; the four-SFP configuration suits orders needing more separate fiber uplinks without changing the eight-port copper access count.
IE-3100-18T2C-E offers eighteen Gigabit copper access ports, compared with eight on IE-3100-8T2C-E; both have two Gigabit combo uplinks. The eight-port model suits smaller connection schedules, while the eighteen-port model suits a larger endpoint inventory. Count required access connections separately from uplinks before selecting the orderable model.
Yes, IE-3100-8T2C-E supports static and inter-VLAN routing under Network Essentials, making the supplied configuration Layer 2+. The routing set does not add dynamic-routing capability. For a routed access requirement, identify which forwarding decisions can be maintained with static routes and which require another routing function before finalizing the configuration.
