1For PA-4T+ port adapters installed in Cisco 7200 series routers, Cisco IOS Release 11.1(6)CA, or later, is required; however, we recommend Cisco IOS Release 11.1(8)CA or later.

Note Cisco IOS Release 11.2(7a)P or later supports half-duplex and binary synchronous communications (Bisync) operation on PA-4T+ port adapters in Cisco 7200 series routers.

Also refer to the Cisco IOS software release notes for the Cisco IOS software version you are running.

In Cisco 7000 series or Cisco 7500 series routers, the PA-4T+ requires the following VIP2 models:

•

•

•

•

VIP2-15(=) (1 MB of SRAM, 8 MB of DRAM)

VIP2-20(=) (1 MB of SRAM and 16 MB of DRAM)

VIP2-40(=) (2 MB of SRAM, 32 MB of DRAM)

VIP2-50(=) (4 to 8 MB of SRAM, 32 to 128 MB of DRAM)

Note The PA-4T+ can be installed in port adapter slot 0 or slot 1 on the VIP2 motherboard, or in any available port adapter slot in a Cisco 7200 series chassis.

Caution To prevent system problems, the VIP2 requires that Cisco 7000 series routers have the RSP7000 and RSP7000CI installed. The VIP2 will not operate properly with the Route Processor (RP), Switch Processor (SP), or Silicon Switch Processor (SSP) installed in a Cisco 7000 series router.
