2 Port Serial WAN Interface Card

Features

The WIC−2T provides two serial ports using the Smart Serial connector.

Asynchronous support with a maximum speed (per port) of 115.2 Kbps, minimum 600 bps. If you
need to run at speeds lower than 600 bps, use the AUX port instead.

• 

Synchronous support with a maximum speed of 2.048 Mbps per port.

Supports one port at 8 Mbps when used in NM−1FE1R2W, NM−1FE2W, NM−2FE2W, or
NM−2W, or Cisco 2600 chassis WIC slots. All other WIC ports on that network module or
Cisco 2600 chassis must not be used.

♦ 

Supports two ports at 4 Mbps each when used in NM−1FE1R2W, NM−1FE2W,
NM−2FE2W, or NM−2W, or Cisco 2600 chassis WIC slots. All other WIC ports on that
network module or Cisco 2600 chassis must not be used.

♦ 

Supports 8 Mbps on all ports simultaneously on 2691, 3725, and 3745. No restrictions.
Maximum six ports at 8 Mbps each.
