A Solution for Adding Broadband or Perimeter LAN Connectivity to Your Network
The Cisco Single-Port Ethernet WAN Interface Card (WIC-1ENET) offers customers using a
Cisco 1700 series router the option of an additional Ethernet port for enabling broadband
Internet access or deployment of a perimeter LAN or demilitarized zone (DMZ). Ideally suited
for small and medium businesses and small branch offices, the Ethernet WIC offers a
cost-effective method for expanding the capability of the Cisco 1700 series router.
The Cisco WIC-1ENET extends the capabilities
of Cisco 1700 series access routers, providing a
second Ethernet port for additional network
deployments. When installed in the WIC slot of
the router, this one-port 10BaseT Ethernet WIC
enables delivery of secure Internet connectivity
using any broadband access device, including
digital subscriber line (DSL) and cable modems.
The 10/100 Fast Ethernet port onboard the Cisco
1700 series router remains connected to an
internal LAN, whereas the second Ethernet port
provided by the WIC-1ENET can be connected to
an external DSL or cable modem. (See Figure 2.)
Alternatively, the WIC-1ENET can be used for
deployment of a separate DMZ on the perimeter
of the network. A DMZ enables Internet users to
access public servers, including Web and File
Transfer Protocol (FTP) servers, while
maintaining security for the company’s private
LAN. (See Figure 3.)
The Cisco 1700 series modular access routers
with WIC-1ENET offers support for New World
services, including virtual private networks (VPNs),
voice over IP (VoIP), broadband, and combined
voice and data networking. The addition of a
WIC-1ENET offers a cost-effective alternative for
implementing new broadband services, while
preserving investment in existing equipment.
