FAQ
How many ports does this Cisco industrial switch have?
The Cisco IE-1000-4P2S-LM-RF has a total of 4 network ports, all of which are Fast Ethernet (10/100Base-TX). Additionally, it includes 2 Gigabit SFP uplink slots, bringing the total connectivity options to 6 ports when including the uplinks. This configuration is designed for connecting multiple field devices while providing high-speed uplinks to network cores.
Is this switch manageable, and what Layer does it support?
Yes, this switch is fully manageable and operates at Layer 2 of the OSI model. As a Layer 2 managed switch, it supports features such as VLANs for network segmentation, Quality of Service (QoS) for traffic prioritization, and spanning tree protocol for network redundancy. These management capabilities allow for precise control over network performance and security in industrial environments.
What types of media does this switch support for connectivity?
This switch supports both twisted pair copper and optical fiber media. The four Fast Ethernet ports use twisted pair cables (e.g., Cat5e), while the two SFP uplink slots can accommodate SFP transceivers for either copper or fiber connections. This flexibility enables the switch to adapt to various cabling infrastructures, including long-distance fiber runs for extended network reach.
Can this switch be mounted in a rack or industrial cabinet?
Yes, the Cisco IE-1000-4P2S-LM-RF is designed as a rail-mountable switch, making it suitable for installation in standard DIN rails or racks within industrial cabinets. Its compact dimensions of 5 inches in height, 1.80 inches in width, and 5.30 inches in depth allow for efficient use of space, and the rail-mounting ensures stability in vibration-prone environments like manufacturing floors.
Does this switch support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
No, this switch does not support Power over Ethernet (PoE). It is a non-PoE industrial Ethernet switch, meaning it provides data connectivity only and does not deliver power to connected devices over the Ethernet cables. For PoE requirements, you would need to consider other models in the Cisco lineup that include PoE capabilities.
What are the uplink options on this industrial switch?
The switch features two Gigabit SFP uplink slots, which provide high-speed connectivity options for linking to network backbones or other switches. These SFP slots are modular, allowing you to choose between copper or fiber transceivers based on your distance and media needs. The uplinks operate at 1000Base-X speeds, ensuring fast data transfer for critical industrial applications.
