IE-9310-26S2C-A is a fanless, managed Layer 3 industrial switch with 22 dedicated 100/1000M SFP downlinks, two dual-media downlinks, and four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. Each dual-media connection accepts either a 100/1000M SFP or a 10/100/1000M RJ-45 connection, with one medium active at a time. The non-PoE, 1U chassis belongs to the Catalyst IE9300 Rugged Series and connects industrial controllers, operator interfaces, and other independently powered Ethernet devices. Network Advantage accompanies the hardware for routed and segmented industrial networks. The IE-9310-26S2C-E sibling retains the same port layout but ships with Network Essentials. This IE9310 GE Fiber configuration provides fiber-oriented access rather than a bank of dedicated copper endpoint ports.
IE-9310-26S2C-A price for new stock is $7,069.65, a 42.4% saving from the Cisco list price of $12,271.00. IE-9310-26S2C-A refurb price is $6,349.35. IE-9310-26S2C-A is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

56 Gbps full-duplex switching capacity handles traffic across the fixed interfaces. 41.66 Mpps forwarding, measured with 64-byte packets, provides the small-packet performance reference for comparing industrial traffic profiles. OSPF, BGP, EIGRP, and IS-IS enable dynamic routing, while VRF-lite separates routing domains. IE-9310-26S2C-A uses 4 GB of DRAM and 8 GB of onboard flash, with approximately 2.5 GB available to users for stored files. Cisco IOS XE supports STP/RSTP/MSTP and LACP for topology control and aggregation, plus MACsec-256 for Ethernet link protection. WebUI, the console, SSH, Telnet, SNMP, NETCONF, and RESTCONF provide local and remote administration, while Cisco Catalyst Center supports centralized management. The MAC address limit rises to 24000 entries with Cisco IOS XE 17.17.1 or later. Cabinet conditions set the operating ceiling at 75°C with blower assistance, 70°C when vented, or 60°C when sealed; safety approval stops at 60°C. Hardware stacking is not supported.
ORM Systems offers IE-9310-26S2C-A new sealed or certified refurbished; refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, including rated-speed port links, optics bay recognition, PSU status, firmware verification, and a configuration wipe to factory default. Specify condition, power-supply configuration, optics, and quantities on the purchase order. ORM warranty coverage is up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on certified refurbished units; every condition includes 30-day returns, terms apply, while Cisco's separate hardware warranty is five-year limited. Enterprise and volume orders accept POs, government Net-30, and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA in the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

When an industrial expansion adds separately addressed production cells, interface scale becomes a purchasing constraint rather than just a port-count question. The switch supports 984 switched virtual interfaces, allowing the routing design to be checked against the planned segmentation. Specify the required VLAN and SVI configuration before issuing the purchase order.
When several industrial switches share one rack, the enclosure must accommodate installation clearances beyond the chassis height. Multiple-switch installations require 1U above the top switch and 1U below the bottom switch. Check the complete rack arrangement, cable access, and cabinet ventilation before specifying quantities and mounting hardware on the purchase order.
When commissioning takes place on an isolated industrial network, license reporting needs an offline workflow. Smart Licensing Using Policy supports exporting usage information for upload to Cisco Smart Software Manager, with Smart Account and Virtual Account handling. Identify the reporting owner and specify the intended reporting workflow before the purchase order.
10G uplinks to industrial aggregation
IE-9310-26S2C-A has four fixed 1G SFP uplinks and cannot accept a 10G uplink card. IE-9320-22S2C4X-A provides four 1G/10G SFP+ uplinks with the same downlink count.
PoE power for copper endpoints
IE-9310-26S2C-A supplies no endpoint power. IE-9310-16P8S4X-A provides 16 Gigabit PoE+ copper downlinks and eight Gigabit SFP downlinks, changing both endpoint power and the access-media mix.
A shared hardware switch stack
IE-9310-26S2C-A has no stacking interfaces and operates standalone. IE-9320-26S2C-A supports four stack members while retaining the 24-downlink and four-Gigabit-uplink fiber configuration.

IE-9310-26S2C-A identifies a Catalyst IE9300 Gigabit fiber switch with Network Advantage: IE-9310 names the model, 26S2C denotes its 24-downlink and four-uplink SFP configuration, and -A selects Network Advantage. The access layout comprises 22 dedicated fiber connections and two dual-media connections, rather than 26 independent downlinks.
IE-9310-26S2C-A supports WebUI, CLI through RS-232 or micro-USB console connections, SSH or Telnet, and Cisco Catalyst Center. SNMP, NETCONF, and RESTCONF support monitoring or automation. Catalyst Center capabilities use optional DNA licenses; direct WebUI or CLI administration does not require that optional subscription.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst IE9300 Rugged. IE-9310-26S2C-A has no announced hardware end-of-sale or last-support milestone. Retirement of individual Cisco IOS XE releases is separate from retirement of the switch hardware and does not define a hardware replacement PID.
ORM Systems offers IE-9310-26S2C-A new sealed or certified refurbished. Cisco's separate platform warranty is five-year limited hardware. ORM provides up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on certified refurbished units. Every condition includes 30-day returns, terms apply.
No, IE-9310-26S2C-A includes perpetual Network Advantage without a mandatory Catalyst Center subscription. Optional Cisco Catalyst Center DNA Essentials and DNA Advantage subscriptions have a minimum three-year term, with five- and seven-year options. DNA Advantage requires Network Advantage, and subscription renewal is separate from the permanent network license.
IE-9310-26S2C-A provides 28 independent Ethernet connections: 24 downlinks and four uplinks. Twenty-two downlinks use dedicated SFP cages, while two downlinks each offer shared SFP and RJ-45 interfaces. Only one interface in each shared pair can operate at a time, so the physical connectors do not create additional ports.
IE-9310-26S2C-A supports PWR-RGD-AC-DC-H for high-voltage AC or DC input and PWR-RGD-LOW-DC-H for low-voltage DC input. One internal supply is required for operation; a second supply is optional for redundancy. Specify the supply PID and required quantity against the site's available electrical feed before ordering.
Yes, IE-9310-26S2C-A supports OSPF, BGP, EIGRP, and IS-IS under its Network Advantage license. The feature set also includes static routing, RIP, OSPFv3, PBR, HSRP, and VRF-lite. The 1000-route OSPF restriction associated with Network Essentials is distinct from this model's Network Advantage tier.
IE-9310-16P8S4X-A provides 16 Gigabit PoE+ copper downlinks, whereas IE-9310-26S2C-A provides no PoE output. The powered model serves copper endpoints that need switch-delivered power. IE-9310-26S2C-A serves fiber-oriented connections to independently powered equipment, so endpoint power requirements distinguish the two purchasing choices.
IE-9310-26S2C-A ships with Network Advantage, while IE-9310-26S2C-E ships with Network Essentials. Network Advantage adds routing capabilities including BGP, EIGRP, and IS-IS; Network Essentials includes OSPF with a 1000-route limit. The Advantage model suits those advanced routing requirements, while the Essentials model suits networks within its narrower feature set.
IE-9310-26S2C-A has four fixed 1G SFP uplinks, while IE-9320-22S2C4X-A has four fixed 1G/10G SFP+ uplinks. Both retain the 24-downlink fiber-oriented configuration. IE-9310-26S2C-A fits Gigabit aggregation requirements; IE-9320-22S2C4X-A addresses purchases that specifically require 10G connections toward the upstream network.
IE9310 GE Fiber switches support industrial optics including GLC-SX-MM-RGD= for multimode links reaching 550 m and GLC-LX-SM-RGD= for single-mode links reaching 10 km. Match the transceiver PID to fiber type, distance, and cabinet conditions. Nonindustrial optics require a reduced switch operating-temperature limit.
IE-9310-26S2C-A supports -40°C to 75°C in a blower-equipped cabinet, -40°C to 70°C in a vented cabinet, and -40°C to 60°C in a sealed cabinet. Safety approval extends only to 60°C. Cabinet construction and optic temperature ratings must therefore be checked separately before specifying the installation environment.
