The Cisco 1-port VDSL2/ADSL2+ EHWIC over POTS (part number EHWIC-VA-DSL-A=) is an advanced module that enables integration of high-speed DSL services directly into Cisco routers. This card supports both VDSL2 and ADSL2+ technologies, making it versatile for different broadband implementations. The VDSL2 support allows compatibility with high-speed broadband connections, offering speeds up to 100 Mbps, while ADSL2+ provides enhanced performance on longer lines compared to older ADSL standards.
This EHWIC module is designed to operate over existing POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) lines, enabling voice and data convergence through a single copper line. The advantage of combining POTS and DSL services on one line simplifies network architecture and reduces infrastructure costs, especially in environments where legacy telephone lines are still in use. The card supports a range of DSL flavours, including Annex A for most typical deployments.
In addition to its connectivity capabilities, the Cisco 1-port VDSL2/ADSL2+ EHWIC over POTS includes important security features such as support for various tunneling protocols like VPN, utilising Cisco's trusted router security stack. It integrates seamlessly with Cisco's existing infrastructure, allowing the deployment of secure remote access, broadband services, and VPN without needing separate specialised hardware. Whether used for data or integrated voice and data services, this module ensures reliable and steady connection speeds with advanced quality of service (QoS) features to prioritise traffic accordingly.
The hardware also supports Cisco IOS Software for easy configuration and management. This, paired with Cisco’s extensive documentation and universal support from Cisco’s flexible platforms, means this card is adaptable to multiple types of broadband deployments while being future-proofed for technology evolution. The versatility and scalability of the EHWIC module make it an ideal choice for modern deployment environments demanding robust and high-speed DSL network performance.
