- Specifications
Cisco 3600 series routers and the Cisco 3725 accept the NM-1A-OC3SMI, a 1-port ATM OC-3 network module with a single-mode intermediate-reach (SMI) fiber uplink. It is not supported in the Cisco 3631. The module gives 155-Mbps ATM connectivity with STS-3c and STM-1 framing.
Single-mode cable for the port has a 9-micron core under IEC 793-2 and ANSI/TIA/EIA-492 CAAA, and an SMI path can reach 9.3 miles (15 km). The fiber ends in one duplex SC connector or two simplex SC connectors. Keep the transmit port covered whenever no cable is attached, as the module uses a small laser.
A Cisco 3620 needs a minimum PCMCIA controller revision to recognize the module. Units in the field before April 1999 have Revision C, which does not work; 3620 routers shipped from April 1999 have Revision E. More modules are in the Cisco interface card category.
