IE-3500H-8T-E Description
The IE-3500H-8T-E is a Cisco IE3500 Heavy Duty Series industrial Ethernet switch for sealed machine-area and outdoor equipment cabinets that need compact Gigabit copper access. The switch has eight 10/100/1000 M12 X-coded ports on a 12 to 48 VDC Mini-Change input at 38W, and it mounts on a wall in a 7.90 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
All eight ports run 10/100/1000 over shielded 8-pole M12 X-coded cable, so the field wiring is a single Gigabit cable type with no D-coded Fast Ethernet runs.
At 7.90 in wide and 8.45 lb with the mounting bracket, the switch fits panels where wider housings do not leave room for the cable bend radius.
A single Mini-Change input accepts 12 to 48 VDC, and the switch draws 38W measured at 12V. Because the model has no PoE budget, endpoint power is supplied separately.
Application Scenarios
On a machine skid or packaging line, the switch gives PLCs, drives and HMI panels eight sealed Gigabit drops through M12 X-coded connectors.
Inside a pole-mounted or wall-mounted outdoor cabinet, the switch aggregates local controllers and gateways without a vented enclosure, since its own housing carries the IP66/IP67 rating.
For transportation equipment that needs a small switch with vibration-resistant round connectors, the 7.90 in wide wall-mount housing leaves room on crowded panels.

IE-3500H-8T-E is the 8-port model of this heavy-duty group: it has 8 gigabit M12 X-coded ports at 38 W in a 7.90 in wide chassis weighing 8.45 lb, while IE-3500H-16T-E doubles the copper ports to 16 at 41 W in a 10.90 in chassis, which suits cabinets and vehicles that need more endpoints on one switch. Neither model has SFP ports, PoE or lossless redundancy, so a design that needs PoE or fiber uplinks has to move to another IE-3500H model. IE-3500H-8T-A has the same hardware and ships with Network Advantage; stay on IE-3500H-8T-E when Network Essentials covers the site, and add IE3500-NW-A= later if Advantage is needed.
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.
