Product Overview

This section describes the Cisco IE 2000U Industrial Ethernet Switch (IE 2000U), hereafter referred to as the switch. The switch provides a Gigabit Ethernet aggregation and small form factor switch for the substation automation family of

Connected Grid switches. It is suitable for Connected Energy applications such as grid automation, distributed generation, integrated renewable energy, trackside substations, and water applications.

You can connect these switches to devices such as servers, routers, and other switches. In connected grid environments, you can connect any Ethernet-enabled industrial communication devices, including field area routers (FARs), connected grid routers (CGRs), programmable logic controllers (PLCs), human-machine interfaces (HMIs), drives, sensors, video devices, traffic signal controllers, and intelligent electronic devices (IEDs).

You can mount the switch on a DIN rail in an industrial enclosure. Its components are designed to withstand extremes in temperature, vibration, and shock that are common in an industrial environment.

The Cisco IE 2000U Industrial Ethernet switch has six models, which are grouped according to five different port configurations. The IE 2000U-16TC-G-X model is the only model available with a conformal coating (Humiseal AR/UR UV40).

Note: The switch does not have cooling fans.

10/100BASE-T Ports

You can set the 10/100BASE-T ports to operate at 10 or 100 Mb/s in full-duplex or half-duplex mode. You can also set these ports for speed and duplex autonegotiation in compliance with IEEE 802.3ab. (The default setting is autonegotiate.) When set for autonegotiation, the port senses the speed and duplex settings of the attached device and advertises its own capabilities. If the connected device also supports autonegotiation, the switch port negotiates the best connection (that is, the fastest line speed that both devices support, and full-duplex transmission if the attached device supports it) and configures itself accordingly. In all cases, the attached device must be within 328 feet (100 meters). 100BASE-TX traffic requires CAT5 cables or better. 10BASE-T traffic can use Category 3 cables or better.

When connecting the switch to workstations, servers, routers, and Cisco IP Phones, make sure that the cable is a straight-through cable.

5 IE 2000U-4TS-G

Page 10

You can use the mdix auto interface configuration command in the command-line interface (CLI) to enable the automatic medium-dependent interface crossover (auto-MDIX) feature. When the auto-MDIX feature is enabled, the switch detects the required cable type for copper Ethernet connections and configures the interfaces accordingly.

Power over Ethernet Ports

On the IE 2000U-16TC-GP model of the IE 2000U switch, four of the 10/100BASE-T ports are available as PoE ports. The four ports can operate either as PoE (IEEE 802.3af) ports or can be configured to operate as PoE+ (IEEE 802.at) ports. In order to operate 10/100 ports as PoE ports, a separate DC power source is required. For more information, see

Connecting Power to the Switch PoE DC-Input (Optional), page 53.

Cable lengths of up to 328 feet (100 m) are supported.

10/100/1000BASE-T Ports

The IEEE 802.3u 10/100/1000BASE-T ports provide full-duplex 10, 100 or 1000 Mb/s connectivity over CAT5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) copper cabling. The default setting is autonegotiate.

Cable lengths of up to 328 feet (100 m) are supported.

100 Mb/s SFP Module Slots

The IEEE 802.3u 100 Mb/s SFP module slots provide full-duplex 100 Mb/s connectivity over multi-mode (MM) fiber cables or single-mode (SM) fiber cables. These ports use a SFP fiber-optic transceiver module that accepts a dual local connector (LC). Check the SFP specifications for the cable type and length.

100/1000 Mb/s SFP Module Slots

The IEEE 802.3u 100/1000 Mb/s SFP module slots provide full-duplex 100 or 1000 Mb/s connectivity over multi-mode (MM) fiber cables or single-mode (SM) fiber cables. These ports use a SFP fiber-optic transceiver module that accepts a dual LC connector. Check the SFP specifications for the cable type and length.

Dual-Purpose Fast Ethernet Ports

You can configure the dual-purpose Fast Ethernet ports on the switch as either 10/100BASE-T ports or as 100 Mb/s SFP-module ports. You can set the 10/100BASE-T ports to autonegotiate, or you can configure them as fixed 10 or 100 Mb/s (Fast) Ethernet ports.

By default, the switch selects the medium for each dual-purpose port (10/100BASE-T or SFP). When a link is achieved on one media type, the switch disables the other media type until the active link goes down. If links are active on both media, the SFP-module port has priority, but you can use the media-type interface configuration command to manually designate the port as an RJ-45 port or an SFP port.

You can configure the speed and duplex settings consistent with the selected media type. For information on configuring interfaces, see the Cisco Connected Grid Switches Interfaces Software Configuration Guide.

Dual-Purpose Gigabit Ethernet Ports

You can configure the dual-purpose Gigabit Ethernet ports on the switch as either 10/1001000BASE-T ports or as 100/1000 Mb/s SFP-module ports. You can set the 10/100/1000BASE-T ports to autonegotiate, or you can configure them as fixed 10, 100, or 1000 Mb/s (Gigabit) Ethernet ports.

Page 11

By default, the switch selects the medium for each dual-purpose port (10/100/1000BASE-T or SFP). When a link is achieved on one media type, the switch disables the other media type until the active link goes down. If links are active on both media, the SFP-module port has priority, but you can use the media-type interface configuration command to manually designate the port as an RJ-45 port or an SFP port.

SFP Modules

The switch Ethernet SFP modules provide connections to other devices. These field-replaceable transceiver modules provide the uplink interfaces. The modules have LC connectors for fiber-optic connections or RJ-45 connectors for copper connections. You can use any combination of the supported SFP modules listed in Table 2 on page 19.

Slots, page 65. For cable specifications, see SFP Module Cables, page 86.

Power Connectors

You connect the DC power to the switch through the front panel connectors. The switch has a dual-feed DC power supply; two connectors provide primary and secondary DC power (DC-A and DC-B). The DC power connectors are near the top right of the front panel. See Figure 1 on page 12. Each power connector has an LED status indicator.

The switch power connectors are attached to the switch chassis. Each power connector has screw terminals for terminating the DC power (see Figure 7 on page 20). All connectors are attached to the switch front panel with the provided captive screws.

The power connector labeling is on the panel. The positive DC power connection is labeled “+”, and the return connection is labeled “–”.

Figure 7 Power Connector

The switch can operate with a single power source or with dual power sources. When both power sources are operational, the switch draws power from the DC source with the higher voltage. If one of the two power sources fails, the other continues to power the switch.

In systems configured with the redundant power option, connect each of the two power supplies to separate independent power sources. If you fail to do this, your system might be susceptible to total power failure due to a fault in the external wiring or a tripped circuit breaker.

The switch can be powered from a site source or a 50 Watt AC-input power supply module (part number PWR-IE50W-AC=). For more information on wiring the DC power source, see Wiring the DC Power Source, page 45. For information on power consumption, see Table 16 on page 79 in the Technical Specifications, page 79 chapter.

PoE Power Connector

The IE 2000U switch model with PoE capability (IE 2000U-16TC-GP) is equipped with an additional DC input terminal block. This DC terminal block allows the connection of a power supply, either the PWR-IE65W-PC-AC= or PWR-IE170WPC-AC= AC Input power supply or the PWR-IE65W-PC-DC= or PWR-IE170W- PC-DC= DC Input power supply, or an input from site source DC that is used to provide dedicated external power to operate the PoE or PoE+ ports. The PoE terminal block accepts 48 VDC or 54 VDC at 2.5 A.

Alarm Connector

You connect the alarm signals to the switch through the alarm connector. The switch supports two alarm inputs and one alarm output relay. The alarm connector is on the bottom right of the front panel. See Figure 1 on page 12.

Page 13

331208

The alarm connector provides six alarm wire connections. The connector is attached to the switch front panel with the provided captive screws.

Figure 8 Alarm Connector

Both alarm input circuits can sense if the alarm input is open or closed. The alarm inputs can be activated for environmental, power supply, and port status alarm conditions. From the CLI, you can configure each alarm input as an open or closed contact.

The alarm output circuit is a relay with a normally open and a normally closed contact. The switch is configured to detect faults that are used to energize the relay coil and change the state on both of the relay contacts: normally open contacts close, and normally closed contacts open. The alarm output relay can be used to control an external alarm device, such as a bell or a light.

See the Cisco Connected Grid Switches System Management Software Configuration Guide for instructions on configuring the alarm relays.

For more information about the alarm connector, see Cable and Connectors, page 83

Management Ports

You can connect the switch to a PC running Microsoft Windows or to a terminal server through either the RJ-45 console port or the USB mini-Type B console port, also referred to as the USB-mini console port. These ports use the following connectors:

 RJ-45 console port uses an RJ-45-to-DB-9 female cable.

 USB-mini console port (5-pin connector) uses a USB Type A-to-5-pin mini-Type B cable.

The USB-mini console interface speeds are the same as the RJ-45 console interface speeds.

To use the USB-mini console port, you must install the Cisco Windows USB device driver on the device that is connected to the USB-mini console port and that is running Microsoft Windows.

Note: For information about downloading the Cisco USB device driver, see the Installing the Cisco Microsoft Windows

USB Device Driver, page 97.

With the Cisco Windows USB device driver, connecting and disconnecting the USB cable from the console port does not affect Windows HyperTerminal operations. Mac OS X or Linux requires no special drivers.

Note: The 5-pin mini-Type B connectors resemble the 4-pin mini-Type B connectors, but they are not compatible. Use

only the 5-pin mini-Type B. See Figure 9 on page 22.

Power Status LEDs

The switch can operate with one or two DC power sources. Each DC input has an associated LED that shows the status of the corresponding DC input. If power is present on the circuit, the LED is green. If power is not present, the LED color depends on the alarm configuration. If alarms are configured, the LED is red when power is not present; otherwise, the LED is off.

If the switch has dual power sources, the switch draws power from the power source with the higher voltage. If one of the DC sources fails, the alternate DC source powers the switch, and the corresponding power status LED is green. The power status for the failed DC source is either off or red, depending on the alarm configuration.

Table 7 on page 24 lists the power status LED colors and meanings.

Table 7 Power Status LEDs

Color System Status

Green Power is present on the associated circuit, system is operating normally.

Off Power is not present on the circuit, or the system is not powered up.

Red Power is not present on the associated circuit, and the power supply alarm is configured.

Note: The Power A and Power B LEDs show that power is not present on the switch if the power input drops below the

low valid level. The power status LEDs only show that power is present if the voltage at the switch input exceeds the valid level.

For information about the power LED colors during the boot fast sequence, see the Verifying Switch Operation, page 35.

Port Status LEDs

Each 10/100BASE-T port, 10/100/1000BASE-T port, dual-purpose port, and SFP module slot has a port status LED, also called a port LED, as shown in Figure 10 on page 22 and Figure 11 on page 25. Table 8 on page 24 displays LED information about the switch and the individual ports.

Solid amber Port is not forwarding. Port was disabled by management, an address violation, or STP.

Note: After a port is reconfigured, the port LED can remain amber for up to 30 seconds

while STP checks the switch for possible loops.

Dual-Purpose Port LEDs

Figure 11 on page 25 shows the LEDs on a dual-purpose port. You can configure each port as either a

10/100/1000BASE-T port through the RJ-45 connector or as an SFP module, but not both at the same time.

There is one LED for each port and each media type (Ethernet or SFP module). Each port LED acts independently for the particular port and media. The LED colors have the same meanings as described in Table 8 on page 24.

Flash Memory Card

The switch supports a flash memory card that makes it possible to replace a failed switch without reconfiguring the new switch. The slot for the flash memory card is on the front of the switch. See Figure 12 on page 26.

The flash card is hot swappable and can be accessed on the front panel. A cover protects the flash card and holds the card firmly in place. The cover is hinged and closed with a captive screw. This prevents the card from coming loose and protects against shock and vibration.

Note: For more information on inserting and removing the flash memory card, see the Installing or Removing the Flash

Memory Card, page 33.

Management Options

The switch supports these management options:

 Cisco Configuration Professional

Cisco Configuration Professional is a PC-based application that provides device management for switches and routers. It simplifies configuration of features through easy-to-use wizards.

 Cisco IOS CLI

The switch CLI is based on Cisco IOS software and is enhanced to support desktop-switching features. You can fully configure and monitor the switch. You can access the CLI either by connecting your management station directly to the switch management port or a console port, or by using Telnet from a remote management station. See the Cisco IOS Basics and File Management for Connected Grid Switches on Cisco.com for more information.

 SNMP network management

You can manage switches from an SNMP-compatible management station that is running platforms such as HP OpenView or SunNet Manager. The switch supports a comprehensive set of Management Information Base (MIB) extensions and four Remote Monitoring (RMON) groups. See the Cisco Connected Grid Switches System Management Software Configuration Guide on Cisco.com and the documentation that came with your SNMP application for more information.
