The Cisco part number HWIC-1SER= refers to a High-Speed WAN Interface Card (HWIC) designed for data-link layer network operations. This card is engineered for integration into compatible Cisco systems to enable enhanced connectivity on Wide Area Networks (WANs), making it suitable for a range of business-critical applications.
The HWIC-1SER= expansion module features a single serial interface configured for WAN usage. The type of serial formats supported by this module include EIA/TIA standards such as RS-232, RS-449, RS-530, X.21, and V.35, providing high flexibility to meet diverse network environments. The serial port operates through a universal high-speed serial interface, allowing data transmission rates of up to 8 Mbps, ideal for supporting higher bandwidth requirements when utilising WAN connections.
It supports asynchronous and synchronous communication, which is critical for applications that rely on consistent data transmissions. Additionally, the HWIC-1SER= provides enhanced security features when used in conjunction with Cisco’s network operating software. Its Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms help prioritise traffic, ensuring that critical data is transmitted efficiently over the WAN.
This module’s compact design integrates securely into various Cisco routers with available HWIC slots, offering a plug-and-play solution for expanding network capabilities without major alterations to existing infrastructure. The flexibility of the HWIC-1SER= card allows it to accommodate both point-to-point and Frame Relay configurations, making it a versatile component for organisations looking to enhance their network’s WAN capacity.
