60-Channel High-Density Voice Network Module
Figure 8-6
NM-HDV
The 60-channel HDV network module converts voice and fax into IP packets or frames that can be
transmitted as VoIP over a variety of transport technologies (channelized T1/E1, Frame Relay,
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), and others). The number of channels supported depends on the
number of PVDMs installed:
•
•
Both a 60-channel HDV network module and a voice interface card (VIC) are required to connect to the
public switched telephone network (PSTN) or a PBX. One VIC (providing one or two T1/E1 line
interfaces) can be installed in the HDV network module. Currently, only the 1- and 2-port T1/E1
multiflex trunk interface cards (VWIC-1MFT-T1, VWIC-2MFT-T1, and VWIC-2MFT-T1-DI) are
supported using channel-associated signaling (CAS). In Cisco 3620 and Cisco 3640 routers, at least one
other network module or WAN interface card (WIC) must be installed in the router to provide the
connection to the IP LAN or WAN. In Cisco 3660 routers, a network module is required for WAN access
or a direct connection is required for LAN access. In Cisco 2600 series routers, a WIC is required for
WAN access or a direct connection is required for LAN access.
Packet Voice DSP Modules
The HDV network module contains five 72-pin SIMM sockets or banks for packet voice DSP modules
(PVDMs), numbered 0 through 4. (See
PVDM. The PVDMs must be installed starting from slot 0.
Note PVDM and PVDM2 modules are not interchangeable. Use PVDM modules with the NM-HDV network
module only, and use PVDM2 modules with the NM-HDV2 network module only.
