Gigabit Ethernet High-Speed WAN Interface Cards Revised: 6/7/07, OL-12852-01 Overview This document describes Cisco Gigabit Ethernet high-speed WAN interface cards (HWICs) and how to connect a Cisco Gigabit Ethernet HWIC to the network, and contains the following sections: • Cisco Gigabit Ethernet High-Speed WAN Interface Cards, page 1 • Installing Small Form-Factor Pluggable Modules into Cisco Gigabit Ethernet High-Speed WAN Interface Cards, page 4 • Removing Small Form-Factor Pluggable Modules from Cisco Gigabit Ethernet High-Speed WAN Interface Cards, page 5 • Cabling for Small Form-Factor Pluggable Modules, page 6 • Connecting Cisco Gigabit Ethernet High-Speed WAN Interface Cards to the Network, page 7 • Related Documentation, page 8 • Obtaining Documentation, Obtaining Support, and Security Guidelines, page 9 For an overview of Cisco interface cards used for Cisco access routers see the Cisco Interface Cards for Cisco Access Routers document. Cisco Gigabit Ethernet High-Speed WAN Interface Cards The Cisco Gigabit Ethernet high-speed WAN interface card (HWIC-1GE-SFP) is a high-speed interface card providing copper and optical Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for Cisco modular access routers. The Cisco Gigabit Ethernet high-speed WAN interface card provides copper and optical Gigabit Ethernet connectivity through a small form-factor pluggable module (SFP), which is inserted into the interface card. (See the "Installing Small Form-Factor Pluggable Modules into Cisco Gigabit Ethernet High-Speed WAN Interface Cards" section on page 4.) SFPs can be installed or removed without powering down the router and interface card. OL-12852-01 1
