CISCO IE-2000-4S-TS-G-L Industrial Ethernet 2000 Series Switches

IE-2000-4S-TS-G-L exact hardware and software boundary

IE-2000-4S-TS-G-L is a Cisco Industrial Ethernet 2000 Series switch with four 100-Mbps SFP access ports and two Gigabit SFP uplinks. Cisco orders this exact PID with the LAN Lite software tier. The port media and license suffix are procurement facts, not interchangeable marketing labels.

Feature entitlement

IEEE 1588 timing is not listed for this exact order profile. L2NAT status: Not included in this order profile. This order does not select the four-port PoE+ PTC hardware profile. This exact suffix is not the conformal-coated X or NX order.

Model-specific purchase decision

The L version keeps the same all-fiber physical layout but a different software tier. Validate the four FE optical drops and two GE uplinks independently, and do not infer LAN Base behavior merely because the fiber cage count matches the B order.

Primary dossier: Traffic-baseline capture

For this order, treat the following as the lead acceptance record rather than a generic checklist. Measure representative utilization, errors, drops and application behavior before and after activation. Use that observation to justify FE or GE uplink capacity instead of treating a catalog speed as a site result. Link the completed evidence to IE-2000-4S-TS-G-L, its serial number and the authorized purchase line.

Capture traffic during a representative production interval and retain utilization, errors, drops and application response for each critical path. Repeat after migration under comparable conditions. The comparison should explain whether FE or GE capacity is adequate and identify abnormal bursts, rather than using nominal interface speed as the only sizing evidence.

Secondary control: Combo-port control

This is the second product-specific release control for the order. A combo pair offers alternative media, not two simultaneous forwarding ports. Mark the active copper or SFP member, disable unintended paths and preserve the choice in the topology drawing and spare plan. Reconcile the result with the exact port configuration and software tier stated above before handover.

Operational proof: Optional SD-card boundary

Cisco lists the SD card as optional rather than included. If configuration replacement by card is required, name the ordered card, tested restore process, storage owner and protection against stale configuration. Preserve the result as a dated part of this model's acceptance file rather than reusing evidence from another IE 2000 variant.

Published lifecycle

Cisco lists 26 July 2024 as the last order date, 26 July 2025 as the end of software maintenance, 26 July 2027 as the end of vulnerability and security support, and 31 July 2029 as the last support date for the affected IE 2000 products. The migration reference for this line is IE-3100-8T4S-E; validate the complete replacement design rather than assuming equivalence.
