The HWIC-2T is a Cisco 2-port serial WAN interface card made for Cisco 1800, 1900, 2800, 2900, 3800 and 3900 Series integrated services routers. It is a single-wide HWIC with no slot restrictions, and both ports use Cisco Smart Serial connectors. Three sister cards share its data sheet: the HWIC-1DSU-T1, HWIC-1T and HWIC-2A/S.
Each port moves synchronous traffic at up to 8 Mbps and asynchronous traffic at up to 115.2 kbps, with Bisync and network clock synchronization supported. Interface types are EIA-232, EIA-449, EIA-530, EIA-530A, V.35 and X.21. At 8 Mbps per port the 2-port serial HWIC covers low- and medium-density WAN aggregation, and it also carries SNA/SDLC, Bisync and X.25 traffic across a TCP/IP network.
Smart Serial cables come in 10 ft (3 m) lengths: V.35, EIA/TIA-232, EIA/TIA-449 and X.21 each in a DTE and a DCE form, plus EIA/TIA-530 and EIA/TIA-530A in DTE form. On Cisco 1900, 2900 and 3900 Series routers the minimum release is Cisco IOS 15.0(1)M with the IP Base feature set. Routers that take the card are in Cisco routers, and other WAN interface cards can be browsed in Cisco interface cards.
