Adding Modules to the Switch

Verifying Package Contents

Carefully remove the contents from the shipping container, and check each item for damage. If any item is missing or damaged, contact your Cisco representative or reseller for support. Return all packing materials to the shipping container and save them.

The switch is shipped with these items:

•Documentation CD that includes:

–Cisco IE 3000 Switch Getting Started Guide (in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, and simplified Chinese)

–Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco IE 3000 Switch

•Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco IE 3000 Switch (safety warnings translated in German)

•Two power and relay connectors

•RJ-45 to DB-9 console port adapter cable

Note To connect the switch functional ground, you need a ring terminal lug (such as Thomas & Bett part number RC10-14 or equivalent).

If you want to connect a terminal to the switch console port, you need to provide an RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter. You can order a kit (part number ACS-DSBUASYN=) with that adapter from Cisco.

For multimode (MM) connections, you can connect a 100BASE-FX port to a port on a target device by using an dual-LC connector.

You can order a kit containing four spare latches (DINCLP-IE3000=) from Cisco.

Adding Modules to the Switch

The Cisco IE-3000-4TC or the Cisco IE-3000-8TC switch can operate as standalone devices with four or eight Fast Ethernet ports, respectively. To increase the number of Fast Ethernet ports by 8 or 16, you can connect the Cisco IEM-3000-8TM and the Cisco IEM-3000-8FM expansion modules. Depending on the mix of switches and expansion modules, you can have up to 24 Fast Ethernet ports.

Note The expansion modules cannot operate as standalone devices.

Expansion Module Configurations

To increase the number of ports, add one or two expansion modules to the switch. If you are installing only one module, it can be either a Cisco IEM-3000-8TM or a Cisco IEM-3000-8FM. If you are installing two modules, the first must be a Cisco IEM-3000-8TM, and the second can be either a Cisco IEM-3000-8TM or a Cisco IEM-3000-8FM. You cannot add two Cisco IEM-3000-8FM expansion modules.

IE 3000 Series, IEM30004PC specifications

The Cisco IEM30004PC is an integral component of the Cisco IE 3000 Series, designed specifically for deployment in harsh industrial environments. This managed Ethernet switch provides versatility, reliability, and robust performance necessary for industrial applications, supporting a range of Ethernet-enabled devices.

One of the main features of the IEM30004PC is its rugged design. The switch is built to withstand extreme temperatures, vibrations, and electromagnetic interference, making it ideal for usage in manufacturing plants, oil and gas facilities, and transportation systems. It operates within a wide temperature range of -40 to 75 degrees Celsius, ensuring dependable functionality in varying environmental conditions.

The IEM30004PC is equipped with four 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet ports. These ports support both copper and fiber connections, providing flexibility for network installations. In addition, the switch supports various redundancy protocols, including Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), which enhance network reliability and fault tolerance.

Another distinguishing characteristic of the IEM30004PC is its support for Power over Ethernet (PoE). This feature allows the switch to deliver power over the Ethernet cables to connected devices, such as IP cameras and wireless access points, eliminating the need for separate power sources and simplifying installations.

Cisco's IEM30004PC also integrates advanced security features, including 802.1X port-based authentication, Access Control Lists (ACLs), and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). These security measures ensure that only authorized devices can connect to the network, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and enhancing overall network integrity.

For network management, the IEM30004PC supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), Cisco's Network Assistant, and other management tools. This enables centralized control and monitoring of the network, simplifying the administration and operation of industrial networks.

In summary, the Cisco IEM30004PC, as part of the IE 3000 Series, is engineered for robust performance in industrial settings. With its rugged design, multiple Gigabit Ethernet ports, PoE capabilities, and advanced security features, it is an excellent choice for organizations seeking reliable networking solutions in challenging environments. Its comprehensive management options further enhance its utility, making it an indispensable asset for modern industrial networks.
