IEM-3300-16T Description
IEM-3300-16T is a Cisco Catalyst IE3300 Rugged Series expansion module that adds sixteen 100/1000 Mbps RJ45 copper data ports to a supported Catalyst IE3300 or IE3400 industrial switch. It fits industrial-edge access deployments that need more wired copper connections from the modular base switch without adding PoE ports or SFP uplinks. Cisco official documentation identifies the orderable PID as IEM-3300-16T=, confirms 26 total system ports when the module is installed, lists 12W module power consumption, and specifies DIN-rail installation with one expansion module supported at a time.

Application Scenarios
Specify IEM-3300-16T for industrial access panels where the added field links stay on 100/1000Mbps RJ45 copper and endpoint power is handled outside the expansion module.
This SKU fits a one-module expansion plan that needs the largest Cisco-listed IE3300 copper-only port block. Selecting IEM-3300-8T would leave the expansion side at eight ports instead of sixteen.
Cisco lists IE3300 expansion modules as usable with IE3400 base switches, but the same data-sheet note calls out an SGT/SGACL advanced-security caveat for that combination.

- In an IEM-3300-16T vs IEM-3300-8T comparison, both are non-PoE copper expansion modules, but IEM-3300-16T doubles the expansion count to sixteen ports and raises the total system count to 26.
- The IEM-3300-16T difference from IEM-3300-16P is powered copper: the two modules share the sixteen-port count, while IEM-3300-16T has no Cisco-listed PoE/PoE+ port block.
- For IEM-3300-16T vs IEM-3300-14T2S, the comparison is the media split because IEM-3300-16T keeps all sixteen expansion ports on RJ45 copper and IEM-3300-14T2S assigns two ports to SFP.
- Buyers deciding which model to choose should keep IEM-3300-16T on 16-port data-only copper expansion and move only when the table facts require eight-port width, PoE/PoE+, or SFP media.
Selection Guide
1. Choose it for sixteen data-only copper ports
Select IEM-3300-16T when the approved base switch needs sixteen 100/1000Mbps RJ45 expansion links and the endpoint set does not require PoE from the module.
2. Move powered endpoints to 16P
Use IEM-3300-16P only when the same sixteen-port expansion count must supply PoE/PoE+ copper ports. Substituting it changes the power plan and host requirements.
3. Keep SFP requirements off 16T
Choose IEM-3300-14T2S instead when the expansion module must include two 100/1000Mbps SFP ports; IEM-3300-16T is the all-copper 16-port option.
4. Verify the one-module installation boundary
Confirm the host switch has no second expansion module planned and schedule installation with the switch de-energized because Cisco does not treat these expansion modules as hot-swappable.
