The Cisco expansion module with part number PA-2FE-FX= is a vital piece of hardware designed to enhance the connectivity and networking capabilities of Cisco routers. This module features 2 ports for Fast Ethernet over fibre, providing robust and reliable data transmission within a network infrastructure. The 2-port Fast Ethernet module supports fibre-based networks, making it highly suitable for environments that need to extend network reach while maintaining high-speed data communications.
Each port on the PA-2FE-FX= supports 100Base-FX, which is a Fast Ethernet standard for transmission over multimode fibre optic cables. Offering a maximum speed of 100 Mbps per port, the module ensures high-performance communication and is well-suited for medium to large enterprise environments. By using fibre optics, the module also helps reduce the challenges of electromagnetic interference and signal degradation over longer distances, making it ideal for deployments in environments with high electrical interference or across extended distances between network nodes.
The compact expansion module is designed for use specifically in combination with compatible Cisco routers, extending their functionality for those requiring fibre optic connections. Its installation is simple, plugging directly into the router's available interface slot, allowing network administrators to quickly scale existing infrastructure without extensive downtime. The module is hot-swappable, meaning it can be replaced or swapped without needing to power down the entire system, further minimizing operational interruptions.
Overall, the PA-2FE-FX= expansion module is a reliable choice for boosting network performance where fibre is a preferred or required medium. Its two-port configuration provides both flexibility and scalability for in-demand network applications.
