The 3000 Series are ideal switches for industrial Ethernet applications, including factory automation, intelligent transportation systems (ITS), and power utility substations.

Key Benefits

Rugged

Our switches are specifically designed for harsh environmental conditions. They exceed the specifications of most commercial switching products, including IEEE 1613 and IEC 61850 compliance.

Easy-to-Use

The switches can be configured and managed at the touch of a button, using either an onboard GUI tool or the PC-based network assistant.

Highly Secure

These switches help to ensure that only authorized users and traffic can access and traverse the network.

Standards-Based

The series helps to ensure that the system will operate with other Ethernet-enabled devices and IP applications. It also facilitates integration between office applications and industrial equipment.

• PROFINET Certification (PDF -800 KB) The Cisco IE 3000 switches now have PROFINET v2 certification with conformance class B compliance.

The IE3000 series can be easily managed by Cisco Industrial Network Director, a network management system purpose built for industrial applications that uses the complete capabilities of the Cisco Industrial Ethernet product family to make the network easily accessible to non-IT operations personnel.

Simplify compliance and protect Internet of Things (IoT) Networks from Attacks

Industrial networks have advanced threat protection needs, requiring a ruggedized solution that helps to ensure safe, reliable service delivery. Cisco offers a broad portfolio of solutions for industrial control networks. These include the Industrial Security Appliance 3000 and the Cisco ASA 5506H-X with FirePOWER Services for the most demanding Industrial Control System (ICS) environments.

Gain the proven security protection of the Cisco ASA FirePOWER services. Our ruggedized 3000 appliance currently provides the industry's widest range of OT specific access control, threat detection, and application visibility for the harshest and most demanding of environments. It offers four high-performance Ethernet data links in a DIN rail or rack-mount form factor.

Features and Capabilities

The Industrial Security Appliance 3000 extends the network as a sensor and enforcer to IoT environments. Key features include:

• Visibility and control of protocols including DNP3, CIP, Modbus, IEC 61850 and applications by Omron, Rockwell, GE, Schneider, Siemens
• The ability to work in harsh environments, with a temperature range of -40° to 60°C
• Hardening for vibration, shock, surge, and electrical noise immunity
• Four 1 Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports, which provide multiple resilient design options
• Compliance with multi-industry specifications for industrial automation, ITS, and electrical substation environments
• A compact DIN-rail unit design with industrial LED features for easy monitoring

Automate Provisioning for On-Demand Computing

The Cisco SFS 3000 Series Multifabric Server Switches combine a high-performance InfiniBand server interconnect with Ethernet and Fibre Channel gateways. This enables an entire fabric of servers to share virtualized pools of I/O and storage resources connected through Cisco Catalyst or MDS switches.

The switches can be deployed as standalone elements for small fabrics or used at the edge of a large fabric of Cisco SFS 7000 Series InfiniBand Server Switches. They are designed to reach beyond legacy clustering solutions to transform high-performance server clusters into flexible computing grids.

Combined with Cisco VFrame Server Fabric Virtualization Software, the Cisco SFS 3000 Series provides a powerful foundation for automated server provisioning and on-demand computing.
