Cisco Industrial Ethernet Switches 1000 Series

Lightly Managed Ethernet Switches for Harsh Environments

The Industrial Ethernet (IE) 1000 switches are small form factor switches designed for rugged environments and to meet the specific needs of industries such as smart cities, machine building, manufacturing, and more. These secure, easy-to-manage switches extend the Ethernet technology to connect end points that used to be unreachable.

Features and Capabilities

IE 1000 Series Switches adhere to overall IT network design, compliance, and performance requirements. They deliver industrial network connectivity where traditional unmanaged switches lack the required performance and do not offer visibility and control.

The series is ideal for industrial Ethernet vertical industries applications where hardened products are required. That includes:

• Factory automation
• Intelligent transportation systems (ITS)
• City surveillance programs

IE 1000 Series Switches offer:

• Choose from four models that support 5, 6, 8, and 10 Ethernet ports, with Fast Ethernet (FE) copper, and Gigabit Ethernet (GE) fiber uplinks options.
• Easy monitor and diagnostic by alarm relay and LED indicator
• Easy deployment and very fast boot up time.
• Easy management by web based device manager
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) or PoE Plus support for in-line power up to 8 PoE devices
• Port security functionalities
• Extensive industrial environmental compliance and certifications

Key Benefits

• Lower capital costs through a high price-performance ratio combined with essential management and control features
• Reduced down-time through visibility of the complete networking infrastructure
• Lower operational costs, simplified operations and low power consumption
• Improved security with port-security that allows disabling ports to control what gets connected to the network
• High reliability and 5 years hardware warranty

Reliable Communications for Field Area Networks

Utilities and energy providers can now deploy rugged multiservice routers in secondary substations, on pole tops, and in other harsh environments. Cisco 1000 Series Connected Grid Routers offer a reliable communications platform for smart metering, distribution automation, and remote workforce automation.

Features and Capabilities

The 1000 series routers are designed for use in field area networks. The portfolio's two models are designed to operate reliably in various types of harsh environments, ranging from indoor substations to outdoor pole-top deployments.

Both models are modular and support a variety of communications interfaces, such as WiMAX, 2G, 3G, and 4G LTE, 900 MHz RF Mesh, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi.

This router series features:

• Rugged industrial design and compliance with IEC-61850-3 and IEEE 1613 for utility substation environments
• Multi-service features including IPv6, advanced routing, IP multicast, and quality of service
• Comprehensive security capabilities based on open standards
• A highly resilient design that optimizes communications network uptime and availability
• Network and device management tools for easy deployment, upgrades, and remote monitoring
