Product Overview
This section describes the Cisco IE 2000U Industrial Ethernet
Switch (IE 2000U)
, hereafter referred to as
the switch
. The
switch
provides a Gigabit Ethernet aggregation and small form factor switch for the substation automation family of
Connected Grid switches. It is suitable for Connected Energy applications such as grid automation, distributed
generation, integrated renewable energy, trackside substations, and water applications.
You can connect these switches to devices such as servers, routers, and other switches. In connected grid environments,
you can connect any Ethernet-enabled industrial communication devices, including field area routers (FARs), connected
grid routers (CGRs), programmable logic controllers (PLCs), human-machine interfaces (HMIs), drives, sensors, video
devices, traffic signal controllers, and intelligent electronic devices (IEDs).
You can mount the switch on a DIN rail in an industrial enclosure. Its components are designed to withstand extremes in
temperature, vibration, and shock that are common in an industrial environment.
The Cisco IE 2000U Industrial Ethernet
switch
has six models, which are grouped according to five different port
configurations. The IE 2000U-16TC-G-X model is the only model available with a conformal coating (Humiseal AR/UR
UV40).
Note:
The switch does not have cooling fans.
