Ruggedized Switches Built for Rugged Industrial Environments

Industrial environments can be tough on any equipment, but especially on networking hardware. Your typical IT equipment was never designed to withstand the poundings, dirt, and grime found in most industrial environments. Plus, these pieces of equipment require significant reconfiguring to serve the computing and technology needs of industrial manufacturers and utilities.

The Cisco® Industrial Ethernet (IE) 4000 Series Switches are today’s most flexible and scalable industrial Ethernet switches that will grow with your network. They were developed specifically to withstand rugged industrial environments, while powering solutions designed to meet industrial customers’ needs.

The ruggedized Cisco IE 4000 Series forms the foundation of a wide array of technology solutions for industrial manufacturers and processes, such as:

• Factory automation
• Energy and process control
• Intelligent transportation systems
• Substation automation
• Mining operations
• Oil and gas refining and delivery systems
• Surveillance and remote-monitoring functions
