Cisco Industrial Ethernet 2000U Series Switches 
Product Overview 
The Cisco
®
 Industrial Ethernet (IE) 2000U Switches are compact switches for the harsh, rugged environments 
often found in the energy and utility industries. IE 2000U switches support the communications needs of the 
utility- and customer-owned energy-delivery infrastructure across distributed generation, transmission, and 
distribution sectors. This infrastructure includes substation applications supporting electrical transmission and 
distribution, renewable generation, oil and gas, water, distributed generation, cogeneration, and trackside 
operations.
