Get scalable aggregation for industrial environments
 Get a flexible, highly reliable, and scalable industrial Ethernet platform built to withstand extreme industrial environments. The Industrial Ethernet (IE) 5000 Series delivers highly secure aggregation and industry-leading convergence and resiliency. These switches can improve uptime, performance, and safety of industrial systems and equipment.
 Reduced downtime
 High-availability technology facilitates networkwide resilience to increase IP network availability. This results in continuous access to applications, data, and content as organizations dramatically scale network size.
 Lower operating expenditure costs
 Zero-touch deployment and very simplified operations can enable switches to auto-discover and auto-configure new devices.
 Improved security
 Integrating cybersecurity throughout the network delivers extensive visibility and control. It also allows security policies to be enforced throughout the extended network, without creating traffic bottlenecks.
 Investment protection
 Software licensing offers new, improved software features without hardware upgrades.
 The IE 5000 Series is built to withstand extreme environments while adhering to overall IT network design, compliance, and performance requirements. These switches are ideal for industrial Ethernet applications where hardened, highly scalable products are required, such as:
 
 Factory automation
 Power utility substations
 Intelligent transportation systems
 Oil and gas field sites
 Connected cities
 Mining
 With improved performance, a more comprehensive feature set, and enhanced hardware, the IE 5000 Series offers superior bandwidth and capacity. Options include:
 
 24-Gbps Ethernet (1 GE) ports (12 x 100/1000-Mbps SFP and 12 x 10/100/1000-Mbps PoE and PoE+ RJ-45-based), plus 4 x 10-Gbps (10 GE) ports (SFP+)
 24 Gbps Ethernet (1 GE) ports (12 x 100/1000-Mbps SFP and 12 x 10/100/1000-Mbps PoE and PoE+ RJ-45-based), plus 4 1-Gbps (1 GE) ports (SFP)
 Other Features
 Extended Enterprise capability with Cisco DNA Center management and support for the Software-Defined Access Extension for IoT
 High-density industrial PoE or PoE+ support for in-line power for up to 12 power devices
 Robust resiliency and enhanced security
 Cisco IOS Software features for smooth IT integration and policy consistency
 Simplified, pay-as-you-go software upgrades with universal software images
 The IE 5000 can be easily managed by Cisco Industrial Network Director, a network management system purpose built for industrial applications that uses the complete capabilities of the Cisco industrial Ethernet product family to make the network easily accessible to non-IT operations personnel.
