The Cisco Gigabit EtherSwitch EHWIC (part number EHWIC-D-8ESG=) is an 8-port managed switch designed to enhance the functionality of Cisco Integrated Services Routers (ISRs). The module delivers high-performance switching capabilities and is designed to fit into Enhanced High-Speed WAN Interface Card (EHWIC) slots within compatible routers.
This module supports eight Gigabit Ethernet ports, each providing a speed of 10/100/1000 Mbps. This flexibility allows for a broad range of connections, supporting high-speed communication over copper Ethernet cables. Since it’s a managed switch, network administrators enjoy advanced features such as VLAN support, spanning tree protocols, and security measures like access control lists (ACLs).
The Cisco EHWIC-D-8ESG= is integrated via a plug-in module format, allowing easy installation into a router’s EHWIC slot, helping provide dense switching capabilities without requiring an additional standalone switch. This augments network scaling and streamlines cabling infrastructures. Furthermore, it’s equipped for Layer 2 switching to ensure efficient data packet forwarding within the local network.
This EtherSwitch module is ideal for small to medium sized offices where multiple devices need to connect through a secure managed switch. It also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) with the appropriate PoE daughter card, allowing devices like IP phones and wireless access points to access both network connectivity and power via a single Ethernet cable. The module’s managed switch functions provide essential control over network traffic, enhancing network security and performance.
