Build a high-performance and secure industrial network foundation
Get your operations ready for the future with Cisco Industrial Ethernet switches
Benefit from software-driven industrial automation and industrial AI with a reliable, high-bandwidth, and deterministic network that embeds tools to optimize performance and protect against cyberthreats.
Unleash industrial AI
Build a robust network to feed industrial AI applications with high-volume data streams from machines and industrial control systems. Easily deploy power-hungry endpoints such as vision systems with 90W Power over Ethernet (PoE) connectivity.
Benefit from software-defined industrial automation
Implement software-defined automation with switches that deliver low jitter, high throughput, Layer 3 fabrics, and an embedded Cisco ThousandEyes agent to monitor device-to-cloud network performance for faster issue resolution.
Scale operations with ease
Enjoy the benefits of modularity to easily add copper and fiber ports when needed. Build a resilient industrial network with predictable, time-sensitive communications. Manage it all with Cisco Catalyst Center or the cloud-based Cisco Meraki dashboard.
Securely connect your OT to IT and cloud resources
Protect operations with comprehensive network security built-in: Cisco Cyber Vision for OT visibility, Cisco TrustSec for microsegmentation, and Cisco Secure Equipment Access for zero-trust remote access.
Base switches deliver low-latency switching that's tailored for critical data. They support SD-Access fabric edge and Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Ethernet VPN (EVPN) to simplify network deployment and management. Advanced network security features include OT visibility powered by Cisco Cyber Vision, microsegmentation with Cisco TrustSec technology, and zero-trust remote access enabled by Cisco Secure Equipment Access. These switches also integrate a Cisco ThousandEyes agent for comprehensive device-to-cloud network assurance. Manage with Catalyst Center or Meraki dashboard.
