NM-1FE-TX Features at a Glance
• RJ-45 connector to attach to Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair
(UTP; for example, 10 or 100BaseTX)
• Support for Inter-Switch Link (ISL) over Fast Ethernet
to ensure compatibility with the Catalyst
®
5000, Catalyst 5500,
and Catalyst 3000 switches
• Will conform with the IEEE 802.1Q Fast Ethernet specification,
ensuring multivendor interoperability when the standard is
finalized
• 10 or 100BaseTX operation, autosense
• Full- and half-duplex operation
• An LED indicates when the network module is “ENabled” for
operation
• Four additional LEDs indicate collision, link, 100-Mbps mode,
and full duplex operation status
NM-COMPR Features at a Glance
• Occupies a single slot in a Cisco 3620 or 3640
• Coprocessor design with no external LAN or WAN ports
• Supports all serial, Integrated Services Digital Network
(ISDN), and channelized WAN network modules and
WAN interface cards
• 2E1 full duplex (2 x 2.048 Mbps Full Duplex) of compressed
input/output
• Up to 128 virtual circuits with dedicated memory for
compression histories
• Industry-standard STAC (QIC-122)
• Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) (at FCS) and Frame Relay
encapsulations (late 1997)
• Link-layer compression
NM-4E Features at a Glance
• Attachment user interface (AUI) and an RJ-45 connection
onboard for the first Ethernet port and RJ-45 only connections
on the remaining three ports
• Half-duplex operation
• An LED indicates when the network module is “ENabled” for
operation
• Separate LEDs for each port indicate link and active status for
that port
NM-4T Features at a Glance
• Each port supports a full-duplex operation at T1 and E1 speeds
• All ports use identical 60-pin, D-shell receptacle that supports
all interface types (that is, RS-232, RS-449, RS-530, V.35,
X.21)
• Interface type (that is, RS-232, RS-449, RS-530, V.35, X.21)
and port mode data terminal equipment (DTE) or data
communications equipment (DCE) operation determined by
separately purchased cable
• An LED indicates when the network module is “ENabled” for
operation
• Separate LEDs for each port indicate transmit data, transmit
clock, receive data, and receive clock signals
