Cisco HWIC-2FE 2 Port Fast Ethernet Expansion Module – Open Box

The Cisco HWIC-2FE is a plug-in expansion module offering two 10/100 Fast Ethernet routed ports for Cisco Integrated Services Routers. These hardware interfaces provide Layer 3 switching capabilities including IP routing, ACLs, and VLAN tagging, with the same functionality and performance as native onboard Ethernet ports.

This open-box module has been fully tested and verified, delivering cost-effective expansion for enterprise routing environments.
