Key Features
IE-2000-16PTC-G-E is the LAN Base member of the Cisco IE 2000 16PTC-G PoE family, sitting between the LAN Lite -L option and the Enhanced LAN Base -NX option.
Four of the 10/100BASE-T downlink ports can provide PoE or PoE+ when the external power source is sized for the required endpoint load.
Each uplink can be planned as RJ-45 copper or SFP media, so the order should separate the base switch from any optical transceiver choices.
Cisco marks the current SKU for IEEE 1588 timing support, which distinguishes it from LAN Lite PTC ordering when timing support is part of the control-network design.
Cisco documentation states that NAT can be enabled by license upgrade on IE-2000-16PTC-G-E, so NAT should not be treated as included without the matching software item.
The hardware guide shows dual DC power connectors, a PoE power connector, two alarm inputs, one alarm output relay, console ports, and optional flash card access for cabinet installations.
Application Scenarios
IE-2000-16PTC-G-E fits DIN-rail cabinets where PLCs, sensors, cameras, wireless bridges, or operator panels need Fast Ethernet access and a small set of PoE or PoE+ powered ports.
This SKU is appropriate when the project wants the PoE-capable 16PTC-G hardware but should stay on LAN Base instead of the LAN Lite -L model or the Enhanced LAN Base -NX model.
The two dual-purpose Gigabit uplinks suit sites where the upstream path may be RJ-45 copper or SFP fiber, with optics and PoE power budget confirmed as separate line items.

- In an IE-2000-16PTC-G-E vs IE-2000-16PTC-G-L comparison, both SKUs keep 18 total ports and four PoE/PoE+ capable ports, but IE-2000-16PTC-G-E is LAN Base while IE-2000-16PTC-G-L is LAN Lite.
- The IE-2000-16PTC-G-E difference from IE-2000-16PTC-G-NX is software and coating: the current SKU uses LAN Base with L2NAT as an upgrade path, while the -NX model is Enhanced LAN Base with L2NAT and conformal coating.
- For buyers deciding which model to choose, the IE-2000-16PTC-G-E comparison should focus on software tier, IEEE 1588, L2NAT treatment, and conformal-coating requirement rather than port count.
Selection Guide
1. Select this SKU for LAN Base PoE access
Choose IE-2000-16PTC-G-E when the design calls for 16 Fast Ethernet copper ports, four PoE/PoE+ capable access ports, two GE dual-purpose uplinks, and the LAN Base feature set.
2. Use the -L model only for LAN Lite scope
Move to IE-2000-16PTC-G-L only when the same PoE-capable 18-port layout should ship with LAN Lite and the project does not require the LAN Base feature position.
3. Use the -NX model for included L2NAT and coating
Select IE-2000-16PTC-G-NX when Enhanced LAN Base, L2NAT support, and conformal coating must be present in the ordered PID.
4. Size PoE power before adding accessories
Confirm endpoint wattage, 54 VDC PoE input, 65W or 170W external power, dual-purpose uplink media, NAT or IP Lite license, SD card, and mounting hardware before the final BOM is approved.
PoE Power Planning
|
Planning item |
Cisco-confirmed point |
Order impact |
|---|---|---|
|
PoE-capable ports |
Four of the 10/100BASE-T ports can operate as PoE or PoE+ |
Endpoint count and class determine the external power source |
|
65W source boundary |
54 VDC 1.2A 65W source supports four PoE ports or two PoE+ ports |
Do not size a 65W source for four 30W PoE+ loads |
|
Four PoE+ ports |
A 170W power source is needed to power four PoE+ ports |
Select a PoE-capable 170W supply when all four powered ports need PoE+ |
|
Power budget rule |
Switch and PoE load must stay within the power supply budget |
Quote the switch and power supply as one power design |
Ordering Checklist
|
Check item |
What to confirm |
Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
|
Exact PID |
IE-2000-16PTC-G-E rather than IE-2000-16PTC-G-L or IE-2000-16PTC-G-NX |
The suffix changes software tier, L2NAT treatment, and coating status |
|
Access layout |
16 Fast Ethernet downlinks with four PoE/PoE+ capable ports |
Prevents substitution with a non-PoE 16TC-G model |
|
Uplink media |
RJ-45 copper or SFP media for each GE dual-purpose uplink |
Each dual-purpose port uses one active media path |
|
PoE source |
54 VDC PoE input and either 65W or 170W external power sizing |
Avoids under-powering PoE+ endpoints |
|
Software licensing |
LAN Base included, NAT by license upgrade, IP Lite upgrade path if required |
Keeps routing and NAT requirements aligned with Cisco licensing |
|
Physical install |
DIN-rail location, wall mount accessory if needed, grounding, alarm wiring, and SD card plan |
Industrial cabinet deployment may need separate accessories |
