Description
The Cisco IEM-3500-8T is an industrial-grade expansion module designed to extend the port capacity of Cisco IE3500 Rugged Series switches. It adds eight Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 copper ports, enabling scalable and flexible network growth in harsh industrial environments.
Built for reliability, this fanless, DIN-rail mountable module supports mission-critical applications such as factory automation, transportation systems, utilities, and smart infrastructure. When paired with a compatible Cisco IE3500 base switch, the IEM-3500-8T allows organizations to expand network connectivity without replacing existing infrastructure, reducing downtime and deployment costs.
Its rugged design ensures consistent performance across extreme temperatures, vibration, and electrical noise conditions, making it ideal for industrial Ethernet deployments that demand durability and long-term stability.
