Getting Started

The Stratix 8000 and Stratix 8300 Ethernet managed switches provide a secure
switching infrastructure for harsh environments. You can connect these switches
to network devices, such as servers, routers, and other switches. In industrial
environments, you can connect Ethernet-enabled industrial communication
devices, including programmable logic controllers (PLCs), human-machine
interfaces (HMIs), drives, sensors, and I/O.

The Stratix 8000 Ethernet managed switch is a Layer 2 switch. The Stratix 8300
Ethernet managed switch adds Layer 3 routing to the Stratix 8000 switch. The
Stratix 8300 switch contains all the features of the Stratix 8000 switch, plus a
number of IP routing protocols, along with enhanced security and quality of
service (QoS) features.
