IE-9310-16P8S4X-E Description
The IE-9310-16P8S4X-E is a Cisco Catalyst IE9300 Rugged Series industrial Ethernet switch for rack-mounted cabinets that mix PoE+ endpoints with fiber downlinks. The switch has 16 Gigabit PoE+ copper ports, eight 100/1000M SFP downlinks and four 1/10G SFP+ uplinks, with a PoE budget of 50W to 480W set by the power modules and an operating range of -40°C to 75°C in a blower-equipped cabinet. The full 480W budget needs two 400W modules, and 150W or 250W modules cannot share load with a 400W module.

Product Performance
Key Features
The PoE budget steps from 50W on a single 150W module to 480W on two 400W modules. Sixteen PoE+ ports at 30W each add up to 480W, so only the dual 400W pair covers a fully loaded switch.
Sixteen PoE+ copper ports and eight 100/1000M SFP ports share a single rack unit. Powered devices stay on copper while distant cabinets connect over fiber.
The four SFP+ uplinks run at 1G or 10G, backed by 95.23 Mpps of forwarding rate and 128 Gbps of switching bandwidth. A 10G backhaul can be added without changing the downlink layout.
HSR, PRP and PTP over PRP run on this model, alongside REP and MRP rings. Protection and process traffic can follow duplicate paths or ring topologies without a reconvergence gap.
The switch operates from -40°C to 75°C in a blower-equipped cabinet, 70°C in a vented cabinet and 60°C in a sealed cabinet. It is fanless and rated IP30, so it belongs inside an enclosure.
Two field-replaceable, electrically isolated power modules cover AC, high-voltage DC or 24-60V low-voltage DC feeds. The chassis does not stack, so each switch is managed on its own.
Application Scenarios
In a rail station equipment room, the switch powers platform cameras and passenger information displays from its PoE+ ports and sends their traffic to the operations center over SFP+ uplinks.
A substation control building can connect bay-level protection devices over the SFP downlinks while HSR and PRP keep protection traffic on duplicate paths.
At a highway intelligent transportation hub, the switch feeds roadside cameras and signal controllers from PoE+ ports and aggregates fiber links from smaller cabinets along the route.

IE-9310-16P8S4X-E and IE-9310-16P8S4X-A share one non-stackable chassis with 16 GE PoE+ copper ports, 8 SFP downlinks and four 1/10G SFP+ uplinks, so the only difference is the license, Network Essentials versus Network Advantage. A site that needs BGP, EIGRP, TrustSec over PRP or SD-Access Fabric Edge orders IE-9310-16P8S4X-A, or adds the perpetual IE9300-NW-A= to an Essentials unit later. Stacking, or 8 x 2.5G 4PPoE ports with a 720 W PoE budget, means IE-9320-16P8U4X-E, because this model has no stacking and tops out at 480 W with dual 400 W supplies. A site with no powered endpoints and all-fiber downlinks can use IE-9310-26S2C-E, with 24 GE SFP downlinks and 4 GE SFP uplinks.

Ordering Checklist
- Power modules: Order two PWR-RGD modules: PWR-RGD-AC-DC-H (150W), PWR-RGD-AC-DC-250 (250W) or PWR-RGD-AC-DC-400 (400W) for 85-264V AC or 88-300V DC, or PWR-RGD-LOW-DC-H (150W) for 18-75V DC. The PoE budget follows the module mix, reaching 480W only with two PWR-RGD-AC-DC-400, and 150W or 250W modules cannot load-share with a 400W module.
- Optics: Select industrial-grade SFP and SFP+ such as GLC-SX/LX/ZX-RGD, SFP-10G-SR-I or SFP-10G-LR-X. Non-industrial SFPs need temperature derating.
- Software license: Network Essentials is the default; add IE9300-NW-A= for Network Advantage, and an IE9300-DNA-E term (3Y, 5Y or 7Y) only if Catalyst Center is used. The Advantage upgrade is a separate perpetual PID.
- SD card: Add SD-IE-16GB= (16GB). The optional card holds configuration backup for switch replacement.
- Rack kit: Order RM-RGD-19IN= (19-inch), RM-RGD-23IN= (23-inch NEBS) or RM-RGD-ETSI= (ETSI) to match the rack standard.
