Overview
Q.
What are the 4- and 9-port Cisco
®
EtherSwitch
®
high-speed WAN interface cards (HWICs)?
A.
The 4- and 9-port Cisco EtherSwitch HWICs are modular HWICs that provide line-rate Layer 2 switching
across Ethernet ports using Cisco IOS
®
Catalyst
®
Software. The Cisco 4-port EtherSwitch HWIC has four 10/100
switched Ethernet ports, with options for inline power support on all four ports. The Cisco 9-port EtherSwitch HWIC
has nine 10/100 switched Ethernet ports, with options for inline power support on eight of the ports. The ninth port
does not support inline power but can be used as a regular switch port for trunking and other normal data
applications. Note: The optional inline power support on the 4- and 9-port HWICs is offered on the Cisco 1941, 2800,
2900, 3800 and 3900 series. it is not offeredon the Cisco 1841 of the Cisco 1800 Series (modular). Features such
as port autosensing, quality of service (QoS), and VLAN support from 802.1P and 802.1Q standards, and 802.1D
spanning tree protocols are standard on the Cisco EtherSwitch HWIC. The Cisco EtherSwitch HWICs are available
in standard 4- or 9-port 10/100BASE-TX switch HWIC and Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) configurations. The PoE
configurations consist of a 4- or 9-port 10/100BASE-TX switch and a 4- or 8-port inline power module daughter card.
The inline-power Cisco EtherSwitch HWIC can power Cisco IP phones, Cisco wireless access points, or any other
IEEE 802.3af-compliant device. The inline power feature on the Cisco 2800 and Cisco 3800 series of integrated
services routers requires the use of a field-replaceable inline power supply.
Table 1 lists the platforms supported by the 4- and 9-port HWICs.
