IEM-3300-16P Description
IEM-3300-16P is a Cisco Catalyst IE3300 Rugged Series PoE expansion module for adding sixteen 100/1000Mbps RJ45 PoE/PoE+ copper ports to a supported modular industrial switch. The module is used with PoE-capable IE3300 base switches and can also attach to IE3400 systems under the documented Cisco compatibility caveat, giving industrial edge deployments a higher-density powered-copper block for cameras, access points, sensors, or other Ethernet endpoints. Cisco lists the IEM-3300-16P= ordering PID with 16 GE PoE/PoE+ ports, 21W module power consumption, DIN-rail mounting, 2.7 lb / 1.2 kg weight, and shared system PoE budget context of 360W or up to 480W depending on the host base switch.

Application Scenarios
Add IEM-3300-16P when the industrial cabinet needs a high-density PoE/PoE+ copper expansion block and the host switch is already a PoE-capable IE3300 base model.
Keep this module on the bill when the requirement is both 16 expansion ports and powered copper. IEM-3300-8P changes the PoE count to eight, while IEM-3300-16T removes PoE from the 16-port copper expansion choice.
Cisco also lists IE3300 expansion modules as attachable to IE3400 base switches, but the same note calls out an advanced-security caveat for SGT/SGACL on that IE3400 combination.

- In an IEM-3300-16P vs IEM-3300-8P comparison, both modules are PoE/PoE+ copper expansion choices, but IEM-3300-16P doubles the expansion-port count from eight to sixteen and raises the total system-port count from 18 to 26.
- The IEM-3300-16P difference from IEM-3300-16T is powered copper: both are 16-port expansion modules, while only IEM-3300-16P provides the Cisco-listed PoE/PoE+ port block.
- For IEM-3300-16P vs IEM-3300-14T2S, the comparison should start with media type because IEM-3300-16P is all PoE/PoE+ copper and IEM-3300-14T2S combines 14 copper ports with 2 SFP ports.
- The which model to choose check should keep IEM-3300-16P attached to a PoE base-switch and power-budget plan instead of treating every 16-port IE3300 expansion module as interchangeable.
Selection Guide
1. Select it for sixteen PoE expansion ports
Choose IEM-3300-16P when the approved IE3300 expansion slot must add 16 Gigabit Ethernet PoE/PoE+ copper ports instead of data-only copper or SFP ports.
2. Use IEM-3300-8P for smaller powered expansion
Move to IEM-3300-8P only when the host design needs eight PoE/PoE+ expansion ports and the 18-port total system count is enough.
3. Keep non-PoE copper on 16T
Use IEM-3300-16T when the requirement is 16 expansion ports without PoE. Substituting it for IEM-3300-16P removes the powered-port capability from the module line.
4. Lock the host and PoE budget together
Confirm the base switch is a PoE model and that the system power design fits Cisco’s 360W or 480W PoE budget context because the expansion module does not create an independent PoE power source.
PoE Power Planning

|
IE3300 10G PoE system |
Up to 480W with expansion module |
Separates higher PoE headroom from the all-Gigabit base-switch path |
|
IE3400 PoE base use |
Cisco lists IE3400 PoE base support with an SGT/SGACL caveat |
Forces a security-feature check before using this module outside IE3300 |
|
Power supply check |
Cisco ties 360W and 480W budgets to minimum switch power requirements |
Prevents quoting the module without the required host power design |
Ordering Checklist

Check Item |
What to Confirm |
Procurement Risk Controlled |
|---|---|---|
|
Exact module PID |
IEM-3300-16P in the site SKU and IEM-3300-16P= in Cisco ordering notation |
Keeps the page SKU aligned with Cisco’s trailing-equals spare or ordering format |
|

IE3300 PoE base switch or another Cisco-confirmed PoE base context |
Prevents attaching a PoE expansion module to a non-PoE base switch |
|
Powered port count |
16 x 100/1000Mbps PoE/PoE+ copper expansion ports |
Avoids substitution with IEM-3300-8P or IEM-3300-16T |
|
System PoE budget |
360W all-Gigabit IE3300 PoE system or up to 480W 10G PoE system context |
Keeps endpoint power draw from exceeding the documented host-switch budget |
|
IE3400 caveat |
SGT/SGACL advanced-security support impact is reviewed before IE3400 attachment |
Prevents an IE3400 deployment from losing a required security feature |
|
Installation state |
The expansion module is not attached while the switch is energized |
Reduces handling risk during module installation or replacement |
