Product Description
The Cisco IE‑2000‑16PTC‑G‑E is a rugged, managed industrial Ethernet switch in the Cisco Industrial Ethernet 2000 Series, designed to provide robust, reliable network connectivity in harsh operational environments. With 16 Fast Ethernet access ports and 2 Gigabit uplinks, it ensures flexible high‑speed communication while powering devices such as WLAN access points and IP cameras via integrated PoE/PoE+ on up to 4 ports.
Model Type: Industrial Managed PoE+ Ethernet Switch (Layer 2)
Category: Cisco Industrial Ethernet 2000 Series Rugged Switch
Key Features
16 × 10/100 Mbps RJ‑45 Ports – Reliable industrial‑grade Ethernet connectivity for sensors, machines, IP devices, and controllers in harsh environments. Up to 4 ports support PoE/PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at/af) to power devices directly over the network.
2 × Gigabit Combo Uplink Ports – Flexible uplinks (RJ‑45/SFP) provide high‑speed connectivity to the backbone or aggregation switches for resilient network integration.
Industrial‑Grade Design – Rugged, compact enclosure with DIN‑rail mountability and wide operating temperature range (‑40 °C to +70 °C or higher), built for industrial automation, transportation, energy, and manufacturing use cases.
PoE Power Support – Integrated PoE/PoE+ capability with up to 4 PoE ports enables powering of devices such as wireless access points, cameras, and industrial sensors without separate power injectors.
Precision Timing Support: Supports IEEE 1588v2 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) for synchronized timing in automation and control systems.
Alarm & I/O Support – Includes two alarm inputs and one alarm output relay for integration with site monitoring and fail‑safe systems.
Software & Management: Runs Cisco LAN Base software with Layer 2 switching features including VLANs, QoS, STP/RSTP, IGMP snooping, and industrial resiliency protocols such as REP and MRP (IEC 62439‑2).
Security & Management Options: Supports SNMP, SSH, HTTPS, RADIUS/TACACS+, Web Device Manager, CLI, and integration with Cisco network management tools.
