IE-3300-8T2X-E Description
The IE-3300-8T2X-E is the Network Essentials member of Cisco's 10G-uplink Catalyst IE3300 line, a fanless modular DIN rail switch built around 8 Gigabit copper downlinks and 2x 1G/10G SFP+ uplinks for industrial sites that need backbone-speed backhaul under a Layer 2 operating model. Its perpetual Essentials license covers the working set of an OT access node - REP and Fast REP rings, MRP, PROFINET and EtherNet/IP (CIP), L2NAT for machine-IP reuse (on downlink ports; the 10G uplinks are excluded), MACsec-128, QoS, IGMP snooping, and IOx edge compute for Cyber Vision - while IEEE 1588 PTPv2 runs in Default Profile on this 10G base. A single IEM-3300 bay expands the system to 24 GE ports beneath the same 10G uplinks, dual 9.6-60VDC feeds and a -40°C to +70°C vented envelope handle cabinet reality, and the perpetual IE3300-NW-A= license can raise an installed unit to the full Network Advantage feature set without touching the hardware.

Product Performance
Key Features
The Essentials license keeps a 10G-uplinked cabinet on ring-and-VLAN operations at the lower license cost, which fits sites where routing terminates upstream and the cabinet’s job is fast, resilient transport.
REP, Fast REP with zero-touch provisioning, and PROFINET-MRP ship in the base license, so resilient ring topologies between cabinets need no license step-up on this PID.
1:1 Layer 2 NAT lets serially built machines keep duplicate internal addressing behind each switch; on this 10G base the translation applies to downlink ports, with the SFP+ uplinks excluded.
The perpetual IE3300-NW-A= upgrade license converts an installed IE-3300-8T2X-E to the full Advantage feature set – routing protocols, VRF-lite, MACsec-256, multicast routing – without hardware replacement or downtime for a swap.
IEEE 1588 PTPv2 runs in Default Profile on 10G-uplink IE3300 bases; manufacturing synchronization is covered, while C37.238 Power Profile designs belong on the GE-uplink models.
Fanless -40°C to +70°C vented operation, dual 9.6-60VDC feeds, IEC 62443, substation, rail, and Class I Div 2 approvals carry the unit across plants, corridors, and yards.
Application Scenarios
Placed as a node in a REP or MRP ring spanning several cabinets, forwarding ring traffic at 10G between neighbors while its eight copper ports serve the local machine group.
Deployed inside PROFINET-based production cells whose controllers and I/O stay in Layer 2 domains, with the 10G uplinks carrying cell traffic to a routed distribution layer elsewhere.
Installed with serially built OEM machines that ship identical internal IP plans, using L2NAT on the downlinks so each copy joins the plant network without re-addressing.

- Between IE-3300-8T2X-E and IE-3300-8T2X-A nothing changes physically – the split is what the license unlocks: dynamic routing, VRF-lite, PIM multicast, and MACsec-256 exist only on the -A side, so a cabinet that must originate routed segments or encrypt at 256-bit needs the -A PID or an upgraded -E.
- The upgrade direction is the buyer’s safety valve: IE3300-NW-A= is a perpetual in-place license, so starting on IE-3300-8T2X-E does not strand the hardware when routing arrives later – the cost decision is timing, not capability lock-in.
- IE-3300-8U2X-E keeps this PID’s license tier and 10G uplinks but adds 802.3bt Type 3 power with a 480W ceiling at 42W draw, so the only reason to move from IE-3300-8T2X-E to the 8U2X-E is powered endpoints hanging off the same cabinet.
Selection Guide
1. Where Essentials Carries The Design
Cabinets that transport Layer 2 traffic over rings and trunks – with routing, segmentation, and multicast handled upstream – run their whole role inside this license tier, and the 10G uplinks remove the bandwidth argument for paying more.
2. Upgrade Triggers To Watch
The moment a design asks this node to run OSPF or BGP, terminate VRF-lite segments, route multicast, or encrypt uplinks at MACsec-256, order IE3300-NW-A= for the installed base or specify IE-3300-8T2X-A for new sites – the features are license-gated, not hardware-gated.
3. Timing Designs Check The Base
PTP on this 10G base is Default Profile only; when a project standardizes on IEEE C37.238 Power Profile, no license change helps – the GE-uplink IE3300 models are the correct hardware.
4. Powered Endpoints Change The PID
This SKU has no PoE circuitry; a cabinet that must also power bt-class devices moves to IE-3300-8U2X-E at the same license tier rather than pairing this unit with external injectors.
Ordering Checklist
|
Check Item |
What to Confirm |
Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
|
External supply pairing |
Order a 50W-class DIN supply (PWR-IE50W-AC=) for this 28W non-PoE base plus any module. |
The switch ships without a supply; commissioning stalls without one on the same order. |
|
10G optic plan |
Select SFP+ optics per run (SR/LR/ER/ZR, BX, twinax) and prefer -I industrial grades in harsh cabinets. |
COM/EXT optics derate the operating range, and SFP-10G-ZR-I= derates the switch by 6°C. |
|
Corrosion-test status |
Note pending salt-fog and mixed-gas approvals on 10G variants for corrosive-site specifications. |
Specs requiring those certificates today may need the GE-uplink bases instead. |
|
License PID on upgrades |
Use IE3300-NW-A= when raising an installed unit to Network Advantage. |
Ordering a new -A switch instead of the license doubles hardware spend for a feature change. |
|
Module width |
Allow 2-3 inches of extra DIN width for the chosen IEM-3300 module. |
An unplanned width increase can miss the enclosure cutout. |
|
SD card for SwapDrive |
Add SD-IE-16GB= when zero-touch field replacement is planned. |
The card is optional and not shipped by default. |
