IE-3300-8U2X-A combines fanless industrial operation with Layer 3 switching, eight Gigabit copper PoE++ access ports, and two fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks. The DIN-rail chassis belongs to the Cisco Catalyst IE3300 Rugged Series and ships with Network Advantage for installations requiring dynamic routing alongside powered Ethernet endpoints. The built-in copper ports support IEEE 802.3bt Type 3 power for cameras, wireless access points, and industrial devices. A side-mounted expansion connection accepts additional access-port modules; the fiber uplinks remain built into the base. The hardware addresses factory automation, energy networks, and transportation installations. IE-3300-8T2X-A is the nearest non-PoE sibling for equipment supplied by independent power sources.
IE-3300-8U2X-A price for new stock is $3,906.00, a 72% saving from the Cisco list price of $13,962.00. IE-3300-8U2X-A refurb price is $7,600.95. IE-3300-8U2X-A is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

480W is the shared PoE ceiling across the base and any expansion module, so endpoint allocations must remain within the selected external power source's available output. 42W consumption at 54V DC excludes PoE delivery and must also be included when sizing that source. Line-rate forwarding across all ports and packet sizes accommodates traffic at each interface's rated speed. OSPF, BGP, EIGRP, and IS-IS enable dynamic routing under Network Advantage, while PIM-SM and PIM-DM support routed multicast. IE-3300-8U2X-A provides 4 GB of DRAM and 1.5 GB of user-accessible flash for software and configuration storage. The IE3300 software supports 256 VLANs, NETCONF and RESTCONF automation, and MACsec-256 link encryption. PTP uses the Default Profile on this 10G-uplink hardware; the Power Profile is unavailable. The predicted 436034-hour MTBF is a reliability-planning figure rather than a specified operating lifetime.
IE-3300-8U2X-A is offered new sealed or certified refurbished, with ORM warranties of up to 3-year extended coverage for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units, separate from Cisco's five-year limited hardware warranty. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on, POST, rated-speed port links, clean boot, optics bay recognition, and PoE output under load on every powered port; firmware is verified and configurations are wiped to factory default. Specify condition, quantity, and accessories on the PO; every condition has 30-day returns, terms apply. ORM Systems accepts POs and government Net-30, with advance-replacement RMA and regional stock/RMA in the UK, EU, US, and MEA for enterprise and volume orders.

When an existing control cabinet needs additional powered Ethernet connections, IEM-3300-16P= adds 16 Gigabit PoE+ ports to the base switch. Expansion installation requires the switch to be de-energized and completed before DIN-rail mounting. Specify the module on the PO and schedule the physical installation accordingly.
When rolling out switches across industrial cabinets, installation space includes more than the chassis footprint. Vertical mounting requires 50.8 mm clearance at the top, bottom, front, and exposed sides for unrestricted airflow. Check cabinet layout, access to connectors, and adjacent equipment spacing before approving the hardware quantities.
When replacing a switch in an alarm-monitored installation, control wiring must match two alarm inputs and one alarm output relay. Input contacts sense open or closed conditions, while the output provides normally open and normally closed connections. Specify the required alarm wiring and verify the contact arrangement before the PO.
Native multigigabit copper access ports
The eight built-in copper ports stop at 1Gbps. IEM-3300-4MU= adds four 2.5G ports, requiring an expansion module rather than upgrading the existing ports.
PTP Power Profile synchronization
The 10G-uplink base supports only the PTP Default Profile. IE-3300-8P2S-A supports the Power Profile, but replaces the 10G uplinks with 1G interfaces.
Unprotected outdoor equipment mounting
The chassis is open-type equipment intended for installation inside a suitable enclosure. Exposed deployments must include an enclosure selected for environmental conditions and access protection.

IE-3300-8U2X-A identifies an industrial Ethernet IE3300 switch: IE denotes Industrial Ethernet, 3300 identifies the series, 8U specifies eight Gigabit copper 4PPoE Type 3 ports, 2X specifies two 10G fiber uplinks, and A selects Network Advantage. The base also accepts additional access ports through compatible expansion modules.
The Catalyst IE3300 Rugged Series supports WebUI, CLI through RJ-45 or USB console, SSH or Telnet, SNMP, Cisco Catalyst Center, NETCONF, RESTCONF, CIP-based tools, and Siemens STEP 7 or TIA Portal. Local console access supports initial configuration; centralized management and industrial engineering tools require the corresponding deployment setup.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst IE3300 Rugged. IE-3300-8U2X-A remains separate from the lifecycle of individual Cisco IOS XE releases and removable storage accessories. Software retirement notices therefore do not establish a hardware end-of-sale date for this switch.
ORM Systems offers IE-3300-8U2X-A new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units. Cisco's separate platform warranty is five-year limited hardware coverage. Every condition includes 30-day returns, terms apply; refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested.
IE-3300-8U2X-A includes perpetual Network Advantage; optional Cisco Catalyst Center Essentials and Cisco Catalyst Center Advantage subscriptions start at three years, with five- and seven-year terms also available. IE3300-DNA-E-3Y and IE3300-DNA-A-3Y identify the minimum-term add-ons. Standalone switching and routing do not require either management subscription.
IE-3300-8U2X-A has a maximum 480W PoE budget shared by the base and any attached expansion module. The eight built-in copper ports support 4PPoE Type 3, while the external source must also cover switch consumption. Size the supply against the actual endpoint allocation rather than treating its wattage as usable PoE.
The Catalyst IE3300 Rugged Series accepts IEM-3300-8T=, IEM-3300-16T=, IEM-3300-8P=, IEM-3300-16P=, IEM-3300-8S=, IEM-3300-6T2S=, IEM-3300-14T2S=, and IEM-3300-4MU=. These modules add copper, powered copper, fiber, or 2.5G access ports. PoE modules require a PoE-capable base, and installation requires removing power before attachment. Select the module for the required access-port mix.
IE-3300-8U2X-A supports 10G SFP+ uplinks with compatible transceivers such as SFP-10G-SR-X for multimode fiber or SFP-10G-LR-X for single-mode fiber. Fiber type, link distance, and the far-end optic must match the selected connection. Non-industrial optics require temperature derating, so optic selection also affects the enclosure operating range.
Yes, IE-3300-8U2X-A accepts two external DC feeds through DC-A and DC-B. The switch normally draws from the feed with the higher voltage; if that source fails, the other continues supplying power. These are terminal-connected external sources, not redundant internal power-supply modules, and each source must support the required switch and endpoint load.
The Catalyst IE3300 Rugged Series mounts vertically on a DIN rail, with a spring-loaded latch supplied on the chassis. STK-RACK-DINRAIL= provides DIN-rail installation within a rack. Allow 50.8 mm clearance at the top, bottom, front, and exposed sides, and attach any expansion module before mounting the assembly.
Yes, affected IE-3300-8U2X-A units shipped with Cisco IOS XE 17.9.4 or 17.9.5 can remain in ROM Monitor after initial setup or a later reload. Serial-number validation under FN74245 determines the affected population. Recovery can use the console to select a valid software image and set the boot path before verifying automatic startup.
IE-3300-8U2X-A supplies PoE on its eight Gigabit copper access ports, while IE-3300-8T2X-A has non-PoE copper ports. Both models retain the same two fixed 10G fiber uplinks. Select the powered variant for Ethernet-fed endpoints; the non-PoE model suits equipment already supplied by independent power sources.
IE-3300-8U2X-A ships with Network Advantage, whereas IE-3300-8U2X-E ships with Network Essentials. Network Advantage adds dynamic routing protocols including OSPF, BGP, and EIGRP beyond the static routing available with Network Essentials. The A model suits routed industrial access; the E model suits installations needing switching and static routes without those dynamic protocols.
IE-3300-8U2X-A has two 10G SFP+ uplinks, while IE-3300-8P2S-A has two 1G SFP uplinks. Both are industrial DIN-rail switches with access-port expansion support. Choose the 10G model when aggregation links require that speed; the 1G model fits uplink connections that operate at Gigabit Ethernet.
