Figure 1.
Cisco 16-Port and 36-Port EtherSwitch Network Modules
The Cisco 16- and 36-port 10/100 EtherSwitch modules for Cisco Integrated Services Routers series routers offer
branch office customers the option to integrate switching and routing in one platform. Combining robust Layer 3 flexible
WAN routing with low-density line-rate Layer 2 switching, the EtherSwitch modules provide straightforward
configuration, easy deployment and integrated management in a single platform.
The EtherSwitch options include a 16-port network module (NM) and a 36-port high density service module (HDSM)
version. The 36-port HDSM utilizes the extra capacity from the wider interface form factor available only on the Cisco
2851, 3660, 3700, and 3800 series routers to increase the maximum possible port densities. The 16-port EtherSwitch
NM is available for the Cisco 2600, 2800, 3600, 3700, 3800, 2900 and 3900 series routers.
The combination of Cisco Integrated Services Routers and the EtherSwitch modules utilize the powerful features
®
available in both Cisco IOS
software and Catalyst switching. The EtherSwitch module hardware supports 802.1p
Layer 2 prioritization, while Cisco IOS software supports Layer 3 DiffServ and Class of Service (CoS) markings for
critical business data. Coupling Layer 2/3 prioritization techniques, with the QoS for the WAN, this integrated routing
and switching combination ensures low latency for critical business applications. The Cisco EtherSwitch modules
includes 10/100 switched Ethernet ports with options for Cisco pre-standard power over ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet.
Features such as port autosensing, QoS and VLAN support from 802.1p and 802.1Q standards, and 802.1D Spanning
Tree protocols are standard on the EtherSwitch modules.

Summary of Contents for Cisco NM-16ESW

  • Page 1 The EtherSwitch options include a 16-port network module (NM) and a 36-port high density service module (HDSM) version. The 36-port HDSM utilizes the extra capacity from the wider interface form factor available only on the Cisco 2851, 3660, 3700, and 3800 series routers to increase the maximum possible port densities. The 16-port EtherSwitch NM is available for the Cisco 2600, 2800, 3600, 3700, 3800, 2900 and 3900 series routers.
  • Page 2 This 36-port version should be ordered only if you require Cisco pre-standard Power over Ethernet (POE). To take advantage of this capability be sure to have or order an external power unit to support Power over Ethernet (POE) for the Cisco 3660 or be sure to order the internal power supply upgrade when using the EtherSwitch Network module in combination with the Cisco 2851, 3700,and 3800 Series.

    Enables users to prioritize mission-critical traffic, such as VoIP and IP-based video applications over regular traffic Prevents unauthorized stations from accessing the switch; Cisco fully supports the entire set of Requests for Comments (RFCs) Provide a comprehensive and convenient visual management system...
  • Page 4 144 IP phones @ 10W per port (or less devices at <10W per port). The external PPWR-PS- CHASSIS is for use with the Cisco 2600 and 3600 Series. The 2800, 3700, and 3800 Series internal power supply can be upgraded to provide Power over Ethernet and the external chassis is not used for these routers.
  • Page 5 Layer 2 and allows WAN connection at Layer 3 through the router. The Cisco EtherSwitch NM and Cisco 2800 router also provide an ideal solution for Cisco 2505, 2507, and 2516 users whose requirements have expanded beyond the existing Cisco 2500 Router/hub capabilities.
  • Page 6 Cisco 2851, 3700, and 3800 series and added the 36-port EtherSwitch HDSM. The Cisco EtherSwitch HDSM combined with analog or digital voice modules for the Cisco 2851, 2951, 3700, 3800 and 3900 routers provide a small branch office infrastructure for IP Telephony deployments at a higher port density. This solution can also be combined with Cisco CallManager IP Telephony and the Cisco IOS Survivable Remote Site Telephony (SRS Telephony) solution.
  • Page 7 (SM-NM-ADPTR). Can be used in an external power shelf with the Cisco 2600 or 3600 Series router or internally with the Cisco 3700 Series routers. For Cisco 2800 and 3800 the internal router power supply should be swapped out for a new power supply with Power over Ethernet capabilities if Power over Ethernet is required (examples of PoE enabled power supplies include PWR-2811-AC-IP=, PWR-2821-51- AC-IP=, PWR-3825-AC-IP=, and PWR-3845-AC-IP=).
