The Cisco PA-2FEISL-TX is an expansion module designed to provide additional connectivity for Cisco systems. This module offers two Ethernet ports, enabling network administrators to expand their system's bandwidth and improve overall data flow. These two Fast Ethernet interfaces support speeds of 100 Mbps, which is ideal for connecting to high-speed network segments or local area networks (LANs).
One of the key features of this module is its support for ISL tagging (Inter-Switch Link), which allows the PA-2FEISL-TX to handle Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs). ISL tagging is a Cisco proprietary protocol that ensures the management of VLAN traffic, particularly when interconnecting switches. Using this technology, the network can differentiate between multiple VLANs easily, ensuring that network segments remain separated as required.
In terms of compatibility, the PA-2FEISL-TX is designed to work specifically in conjunction with compatible Cisco routers. Its modular architecture allows for easy installation, and the use of standard Fast Ethernet ports means it can be integrated seamlessly into an existing network setup with minimal fuss. Given its nature as a Cisco expansion component, it is intended to be installed into appropriate module slots on qualified Cisco equipment.
Additionally, the module supports hot-swapping, which means that network operators can remove or install the module without needing to power down the entire system. This is highly convenient for minimising downtime, particularly in environments where network stability is critical.
