This section describes the Cisco NIM-ES2-4 and Cisco NIM-ES2-8. It contains the following sections:
Cisco NIM-ES2-4 and Cisco NIM-ES2-8 Overview
The Cisco 4-Port and 8-Port Layer 2 Gigabit EtherSwitch Network Interface Modules are switch modules to
which you can connect Cisco IP phones, Cisco wireless access point workstations, and other network devices
such as video devices, routers, switches, and other network components.
The following Cisco 4-Port and 8-Port Layer 2 Gigabit EtherSwitch Network Interface Modules are supported
on the Cisco 4000 Series ISRs:
• 4-ports non-POE Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet Switch Network Interface Module (NIM-ES2-4)
• 8-ports non-POE Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet Switch Network Interface Module (NIM-ES2-8)
• 8-ports POE Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet Switch Network Interface Module (NIM-ES2-8-P)
Multiple Cisco NIM-ES2-4 and Cisco NIM-ES2-8 units that can be present on the Cisco 4000 ISR is dictated
by the total NIM slots present in the router.
Note
Cisco 4-Port and 8-Port Layer 2 Gigabit EtherSwitch Network Interface Modules support a maximum of 4K
entries in the MAC table.
The following table lists the maximum number of network modules supported on the router.
