SMART INTERFACE CARDS

 

MSR series routers adopt modular design and support a wide range of optional

 

smart interface cards (SICs) and double smart interface cards (DSICs). A SIC

 

interface card occupies one SIC slot of an MSR router and a DSIC interface card

 

occupies two SIC slots of a router. The SIC/DSIC series interface cards provide

 

abundant interfaces, such as synchronous/asynchronous serial interface, Ethernet

 

interface, E1/T1, ISDN BRI/PRI, ADSL, audio interface, Layer 2 switching interface,

 

and so on.

 

Among this series interface cards, the Layer 2 switching interface cards (SIC-4FSW

 

and DSIC-9FSW) each have a corresponding PoE-capable one, which can provide

 

-48 VDC power to remote powered devices (PDs, such as IP phone, WLAN AP,

 

network camera) through straight-through cables as long as installed in a PoE

 

router.

For H3C MSR 20-40 and MSR 30 and 50 series routers which have four SIC slots, a

4FSW/1FEF/1FEA/1GEC/1ADSL/1ADSL-I interface card can only be installed in slot

 

2 or slot 4.

SIC-1FEA

Introduction 1-port 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet interface card (SIC-1FEA), in which FE stands for Fast Ethernet and A is used to differentiate SIC-1FEA from the 1FE module. SIC-1FEA is used to implement the communication between Routers and LANs. It supports:

Effective transmission distance of 100 meters with category-5 twisted pair cables;

Operating speeds of both 100 Mbps and 10 Mbps and autosensing;

Both full duplex (in common use) and half-duplex operating modes.

n For H3C MSR 20-40 and MSR 30/50 series routers, a SIC-1FEA interface card can only be installed in SLOT2 or SLOT4.
