Introduction to DGTL-BRKEWN-2670.pdf Software
This technical documentation package provides essential configuration guidance for Cisco Catalyst Industrial Ethernet 3000 Series switches running IOS Release 15.2(2)E. Released in Q4 2024, the document contains validated design patterns for harsh environment deployments, including oil/gas refineries and manufacturing plants requiring IEEE 1613 compliance.
The PDF serves as a supplemental installation manual for firmware versions 15.2(7)E3 through 15.2(8)E1, specifically addressing extended temperature operation (-40°C to 75°C) and vibration-resistant configurations. It replaces previous revision DGTL-BRKEWN-2669.pdf with updated electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) test results for European Union CE Marking compliance.
