FAQ
What switches is this expansion module compatible with?
This expansion module is specifically compatible with Cisco Catalyst IE3300 Rugged Series switches. It connects directly to these switches through their expansion interfaces to add eight additional Gigabit Ethernet ports. The module is not compatible with other Cisco switch models or non-Cisco networking equipment.
What type of cabling does this module support?
The module supports standard twisted pair cabling, specifically Category 5e or higher Ethernet cables with RJ-45 connectors. It uses 1000Base-T network technology, which operates over four pairs of copper wires. The ports support auto-negotiation and auto-MDI/MDIX for simplified cable connections without requiring crossover cables.
How is this expansion module installed?
The module installs on standard DIN rails using its integrated mounting clips, making it suitable for industrial control panels and network cabinets. It connects to a compatible Cisco Catalyst IE3300 switch through the expansion interface connector. No external power supply is required as power is delivered through the host switch connection.
What is the data transfer speed of each port?
Each of the eight RJ-45 ports supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps) using 1000Base-T technology. The ports automatically negotiate speed with connected devices, supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps operation depending on the capabilities of the connected equipment and cable quality.
