IE-3500H-16T-E Description
The IE-3500H-16T-E is a Cisco IE3500 Heavy Duty Series industrial Ethernet switch for sealed cabinets and machine areas that need sixteen non-PoE Gigabit copper links. The switch has sixteen 10/100/1000 M12 X-coded ports on a 12 to 48 VDC Mini-Change input at 41W, and it mounts on a wall in a 10.90 in wide housing. The switch has no SFP uplinks and no PoE, and the IP66/IP67 rating holds only when every IP67 cable is mated and torqued or the supplied dust caps are fitted.

Product Performance
Key Features
Sixteen 10/100/1000 ports share one M12 X-coded cable type, which suits cells where every endpoint is a Gigabit device and no Fast Ethernet D-coded cabling is needed.
The housing is 10.90 in wide and weighs 11.25 lb with the bracket, a footprint that the family also uses for several PoE and Fast Ethernet models, so panel cutouts carry over.
The Mini-Change input draws 41W at 12V and 3.4A, with no PoE budget on top. Power planning therefore covers only the switch itself.
Application Scenarios
In a production cell with many drives, I/O blocks and cameras, the switch terminates sixteen Gigabit connections at the machine instead of running each cable back to a control room.
At a water or energy site where the cabinet door stays open to dust and spray, the switch links local controllers and meters over sealed M12 connectors.
Across a maintenance depot, the switch collects diagnostic units and cameras from vehicles and trackside equipment through its round locking connectors.

IE-3500H-16T-E is the middle size of the group: 16 gigabit M12 X-coded ports at 41 W in a 10.90 in chassis, against 24 ports at 42 W in a 13.90 in chassis on IE-3500H-24T-E, which is the choice when a cabinet needs more than 16 endpoints and has about 3 in more width. The 16-port chassis is also shared by PoE and Fast Ethernet models in the family, so a site that needs PoE or lossless redundancy has to leave this part number. IE-3500H-16T-A has identical hardware with Network Advantage as the default tier; IE-3500H-16T-E suits sites on Network Essentials, with IE3500-NW-A= as the later upgrade.
Ordering Checklist
- Power cable: Order a Mini-Change A-size single-ended cable such as Molex 130006-0737, because no power supply ships with the switch. The switch has one 4-pin Mini-Change input and no supplied power source, so a missing cable leaves it unpowered on site.
- SD card and console cable: Add SD-IE-16GB for configuration backup and CAB-CONSOLE-M12= for the M12 console port, if the site needs them. The SD card is not shipped by default, and the console port needs an M12 to DB9F cable.
- Software tier: Network Essentials is the default; IE3500-NW-A= upgrades to Network Advantage, and IE3500-DNA-E or -A terms (3Y, 5Y, 7Y) cover Catalyst Center. The Catalyst Center licenses are optional and Network Advantage is a separate line item, so the order needs the intended tier.
