IEM-3300-8T Description
IEM-3300-8T is a Cisco Catalyst IE3300 copper expansion module for supported IE3300 and IE3400 modular industrial switch base systems. It adds eight 100/1000 Mbps RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet data ports for non-PoE industrial edge expansion, bringing the listed total system port count to 18 when installed with a compatible base switch. Cisco lists the module with 6W power consumption, DIN-rail installation, and a single-expansion-module system boundary, so it fits BOMs that need additional copper access ports without PoE, SFP, or advanced hardware feature requirements on the expansion module itself.

Application Scenarios
Use IEM-3300-8T when an IE3300 or IE3400 modular base switch needs eight added copper data ports and the endpoint map does not require PoE power or SFP fiber.
This module fits refresh work where existing field wiring terminates on RJ45 copper and the bill of materials must keep powered endpoints on a separate PoE switch or PoE expansion module.
IEM-3300-8T should be staged with a planned maintenance window because Cisco documents one expansion module per base system and states that expansion modules are not hot-swappable.

- In an IEM-3300-8T vs IEM-3300-8P comparison, both modules keep the eight-port expansion count, but IEM-3300-8T is data-only copper while IEM-3300-8P provides PoE/PoE+ copper ports.
- The IEM-3300-8T difference from IEM-3300-8S is media type: IEM-3300-8T adds RJ45 copper ports and IEM-3300-8S adds SFP ports while the total system-port count remains 18.
- For IEM-3300-8T vs IEM-3300-16T, the comparison is port density because IEM-3300-16T doubles the expansion count to 16 copper ports and raises the total system count to 26.
- Buyers deciding which model to choose should keep IEM-3300-8T on non-PoE copper designs and move only when the table facts call for PoE, SFP media, or 16-port copper density.
Selection Guide
1. Choose it for eight data-only copper ports
Select IEM-3300-8T when the approved IE3300 or IE3400 base switch needs eight Gigabit Ethernet copper expansion ports without PoE.
2. Move powered endpoints to 8P
Use IEM-3300-8P instead when the expansion ports must supply PoE/PoE+ because IEM-3300-8T has no Cisco-listed PoE ports.
3. Separate copper and SFP expansion lines
Keep IEM-3300-8T on RJ45 copper endpoint maps. Choose IEM-3300-8S when the expansion requirement changes to eight SFP fiber ports.
4. Verify the module count before staging
Confirm the host switch has only one expansion module attached because Cisco documents a single-module limit and does not support hot-swapping these expansion modules.
