IE-3300-8P2S-A Description
IE-3300-8P2S-A is a Cisco Catalyst IE3300 modular industrial Ethernet switch with Network Advantage, eight PoE/PoE+ copper ports, and two 100/1000 SFP uplinks. It is used in DIN-rail cabinets where powered endpoints are required but the uplink plan remains GE fiber.
The Advantage-tier PoE design should stay on this PID when the required profile is 240 W base or 360 W expanded PoE. IE-3300-8P2S-E changes the license to Essentials, IE-3300-8T2S-A removes PoE, and IE-3300-8U2X-A adds 4PPoE plus 10G-capable uplinks.
Before purchase, verify the PoE load, 48/54 VDC plan, expansion module needs, SFP optic selection, redundant DC input, stock, price, warranty coverage, shipping options, and lead time. Layer23-Switch can help check compatibility and shipment details for the exact Cisco SKU.

Key Features
IE-3300-8P2S-A carries Network Advantage as the default network license, so the license tier should stay tied to the exact hardware PID during quote review.
The 8P2S profile gives eight 10/100/1000 PoE/PoE+ copper access ports and two 100/1000 SFP uplinks, separating this model from 8U2X variants that use 10G-capable fiber uplinks and 4PPoE.
Cisco lists 240W for the base 8P2S switch and 360W with expansion module, which makes endpoint count, expansion module, and power-supply sizing part of the same order decision.
One Cisco-listed IE3300 expansion module can be attached, giving the buyer a defined port-growth path without treating the base switch as an open-ended modular chassis.
The platform uses redundant DC input, and the 8P2S power table calls out 48VDC for PoE and 54VDC for PoE+, so site power has to match the powered-device requirement.
Cisco documents DIN-rail mounting, industrial temperature ranges, alarm I/O, and Cisco IOS XE operation for the IE3300 family, placing this SKU in industrial access cabinets rather than a standard campus wiring-closet refresh.
Application Scenarios
IE-3300-8P2S-A fits rugged cabinets that need Gigabit copper access for cameras, phones, wireless access points, sensors, or other PoE/PoE+ endpoints with fiber handoff over 100/1000 SFP ports.
Select this SKU when the approved industrial switch standard is Cisco Catalyst IE3300 with Network Advantage and the same project also requires powered access ports.
The model works for a compact base deployment that may add one Cisco-supported IE3300 expansion module later, provided the buyer reviews the 360W system PoE limit before releasing the order.

- In an IE-3300-8P2S-A vs IE-3300-8P2S-E comparison, the port layout and 240W base or 360W expanded PoE budget stay aligned; the confirmed difference is Network Advantage versus Network Essentials.
- The IE-3300-8P2S-A vs IE-3300-8T2S-A difference is powered access, because IE-3300-8P2S-A includes PoE/PoE+ copper ports while IE-3300-8T2S-A is the non-PoE Network Advantage model.
- For IE-3300-8P2S-A vs IE-3300-8U2X-A, the comparison should check both powered-port class and uplink speed: IE-3300-8P2S-A uses PoE/PoE+ with 100/1000 SFP uplinks, while IE-3300-8U2X-A uses 4PPoE Type 3 with 1/10G SFP-based uplinks.
- The which model to choose review should start with license tier, PoE class, SFP uplink speed, and whether the order needs the 360W or 480W IE3300 PoE system profile.
Selection Guide
1. Select it for Advantage PoE+ access
Choose IE-3300-8P2S-A when the BOM requires Network Advantage and eight Gigabit PoE/PoE+ access ports on the Catalyst IE3300 rugged platform.
2. Keep the E variant for Essentials-only orders
Move to IE-3300-8P2S-E only when the same 8P2S hardware profile is acceptable with Network Essentials instead of the Advantage default tier.
3. Remove PoE before using 8T2S-A
Use IE-3300-8T2S-A only after confirming that endpoint power will not come from the switch because that model keeps 100/1000 SFP uplinks but has no PoE budget.
4. Verify power and expansion together
Confirm whether the design uses the 240W base budget or the 360W expanded system budget because PoE load, selected IE3300 module, and DC input voltage affect the same line item.
