IE-3500-8T3X-E Description
The IE-3500-8T3X-E is a Cisco IE3500 Rugged Series modular industrial Ethernet switch for DIN-rail cabinets that aggregate copper field devices onto 10G fiber. The switch has eight Gigabit RJ45 copper ports and three 10G/1G SFP+ uplinks, on a 12V to 48V DC input at 37W, with an operating range of -40 to +75°C in a forced-air enclosure. The Fast Ethernet SFPs that fit 1G uplink variants are not supported on the SFP+ slots, and the switch has no PoE.

Product Performance
Key Features
All three uplinks accept 10G SFP+ optics and also 1G SFP parts. SFP+ optics such as SFP-10G-SR=, SFP-10G-LR= and SFP-10G-ER= are supported on this variant only, and non-industrial optics reduce the operating temperature range.
The 12V to 48V nominal input is rated at 7A, with a power consumption of 37W and two DC terminals for separate feeds. Without PoE, the supply only has to cover the switch and any attached expansion module.
Non-PoE IEM-3500 modules add 8 or 16 ports for a system of 19 or 27, with 6W to 16W drawn through the host input. PoE modules do not attach to a non-PoE base.
Application Scenarios
In a manufacturing plant, the switch gathers copper links from line controllers in a cabinet and sends them to the plant core over 10G fiber. The uplinks keep several cells from competing for a gigabit trunk.
At an oil and gas site, the switch sits in an enclosure in a Class I Division 2 area, linking process controllers over copper and returning data on single-mode SFP+ optics to the control building.
In a water treatment plant, the switch joins SCADA controllers and instruments in a pump-house cabinet and uplinks to the plant network over 10G fiber.

IE-3500-8T3X-E puts three 10G/1G SFP+ uplinks on eight non-PoE copper ports, while IE-3500-8T3S-E has three 100/1000 SFP uplinks and draws 29W against 37W, which is the right choice only when the uplinks stay at gigabit speed. Powered endpoints need IE-3500-8U3X-E, which keeps the SFP+ uplinks and adds PoE/PoE+/4PPoE with a 480W budget on a 12 to 54 VDC input. IE-3500-8T3X-E is Network Essentials; IE-3500-8T3X-A is the Network Advantage version of the same hardware, and an installed switch can be upgraded with IE3500-NW-A=. Its input is rated 12 to 48 VDC at 7.0A.
Ordering Checklist
- Power supply: No supply is included; for this non-PoE switch order a DIN rail unit such as PWR-IE50W-AC=, PWR-IE50W-AC-IEC= or PWR-IE50W-AC-L=. Without one the cabinet has no power source.
- Expansion module: Add an IEM-3500 module such as IEM-3500-8T=, IEM-3500-8S=, IEM-3500-16T=, IEM-3500-6T2S= or IEM-3500-14T2S=, or none. Modules are separate orderable items, and their power draw is counted against the host.
- SD card: Add SD-IE-16GB= if configuration backup or switch replacement from card is wanted. The card is optional and not fitted by default.
- Software tier: Network Essentials ships as ordered; IE3500-NW-A= (perpetual) upgrades to Network Advantage later, and IE3500-DNA-E or IE3500-DNA-A adds a Catalyst Center subscription. DNA Advantage works only with the Network Advantage license, so the tiers must match.
- Uplink optics: Select GE SFP or 10G SFP+ modules from the supported lists, for example SFP-10G-LR= or SFP-10G-SR=. The 3 uplinks take SFP+ only on this 10GE variant, and non-industrial SFPs force a lower operating temperature.
- Mounting: Choose DIN rail mounting; STK-RACK-DINRAIL= is the 19-inch DIN rail mount kit. The rack mount kit is a separate item.
