Cisco Catalyst IR8340 Rugged Router
The Cisco Catalyst IR8340 Rugged Router is an industrial routing platform with integrated switching, security, timing, and management to deliver secure connectivity for critical infrastructures.
IR8340-K9 Overview
The Cisco Catalyst IR8340 Rugged Router (IR8340-K9) is an industrial-grade routing and switching platform designed for harsh environments. As Cisco’s first fully integrated routing and switching platform, it provides industry-leading performance, security, resiliency, and modularity in a compact, ruggedized form factor.
The IR8340-K9 is powered by the programmable Cisco IOS XE software architecture, supporting both traditional routing features and Cisco SD-WAN capabilities. The multicore Intel x86 CPU delivers high-speed processing for data plane, control plane, and service plane traffic. The IR8340 combines routing, switching, security, and management functionality into a single router platform hardened for utility, energy, oil/gas, and transportation applications.
With 14 built-in Gigabit Ethernet ports, dual power supply options, convection cooling, and substation-grade hardening per IEC and IEEE standards, the Cisco IR8340-K9 provides reliable and secure network connectivity in harsh industrial environments. The modular design with NIM and PIM slots allows flexible WAN interface configurations. Advanced features like 5G support, hardware-based cryptography, zone firewalls, and SD-WAN make the IR8340-k9 ideal for critical infrastructure and industrial IoT.
