IE-3010-24TC Description
IE-3010-24TC is a Cisco Industrial Ethernet 3010 Series rugged industrial Ethernet switch for industrial access and aggregation roles in factory automation, transportation, utility, and other harsh-environment networks. This switch provides 24 10/100BASE-TX copper access ports, two dual-purpose Gigabit Ethernet uplinks that can use 10/100/1000BASE-T copper or 100/1000 SFP media, two AC or DC power-supply module slots, and Cisco IOS support with Layer 2 LAN Base from Release 12.2(53)EZ or Layer 3 IP Services from Release 15.0(2)SE or later.

Product Performance
Key Features
The port layout fits PLCs, HMIs, sensors, controllers, gateways, and other Ethernet-enabled industrial devices that connect over 10/100BASE-TX copper.
Each Gigabit uplink can run as copper or SFP media, which lets the BOM match short copper uplinks or rugged fiber SFP modules without changing the base switch SKU.
Cisco lists low-DC and high AC/DC power-supply module families for the IE 3010 platform, so the switch should be quoted against the site input-power design.
The Cisco IE 3010 data sheet lists extended environmental ratings, rack mounting, wall-mount options, redundant AC or DC input options, alarm relays, and surge or noise immunity for industrial environments.
The hardware guide shows RJ-45 and USB mini-Type B console ports, an SD flash memory card slot, panel LEDs, alarm I/O, and two PSU indicators for field setup and service checks.
Cisco lists Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(53)EZ for Layer 2 support and Cisco IOS Software Release 15.0(2)SE or later for Layer 3 IP Services support on the IE 3010 Series.
Application Scenarios
IE-3010-24TC is suited to control cabinets where the access side is mostly 10/100BASE-TX copper and the uplink can be copper or fiber through the dual-purpose Gigabit ports.
The chassis fits projects that need a rugged Cisco rack or wall-mount industrial switch with alarm relay contacts, extended environmental specifications, and AC or DC power module options.
Fits existing IE 3010 designs that need the 24-port copper access layout rather than the IE-3010-16S-8PC layout with Fast Ethernet SFP ports and PoE copper ports.

- In an IE-3010-24TC vs IE-3010-16S-8PC comparison, the main difference is the access port layout: IE-3010-24TC uses 24 copper Fast Ethernet ports, while IE-3010-16S-8PC mixes Fast Ethernet SFP ports with PoE copper ports.
- The IE-3010-24TC difference from IE-3010-16S-8PC matters when the installed cabinet needs copper access endpoints and does not require the eight PoE downlink ports listed for the alternate model.
- For buyers comparing IE-3010-24TC vs IE-3010-16S-8PC, the which model to choose check should start with access media, PoE requirement, and the shared dual-purpose Gigabit uplink design. IE-3000-8TC is included as an additional same-family comparison point.
Selection Guide
1. Choose IE-3010-24TC for 24 copper Fast Ethernet endpoints
Select this SKU when the access layer is built around 10/100BASE-TX industrial devices and the project needs the IE 3010 rugged switch form factor.
2. Compare IE-3010-16S-8PC when fiber or PoE access is required
Choose the alternate IE 3010 model only if the BOM calls for 16 Fast Ethernet SFP ports or 8 PoE copper ports instead of the 24 copper Fast Ethernet layout.
3. Match the PSU module to the site power design
Verify whether the installation needs the low-DC PWR-RGD-LOW-DC/IA family, the high AC/DC PWR-RGD-AC-DC/IA family, and one or two power-supply modules.
4. Check the uplink media and IOS image baseline
Confirm the active dual-purpose uplink medium, rugged SFP part number, Layer 2 or Layer 3 software requirement, and mounting accessory before adding IE-3010-24TC to the quote.
