The AR1200 supports various interface cards, including Ethernet interface cards, E1/T1/PRI/VE1/VT1 interface
cards, synchronous/asynchronous interface cards, ADSL2+/G.SHDSL interface cards, FXS/FXO voice cards and ISDN
interface cards. These cards are classified into SIC (Smart Interface Card) cards and WSIC (Double-Width SIC) cards
depending on slot type. The following are the appearances and description of main interface cards.
WSIC card
L2/L3 Ethernet interface card
•
Interfaces work in 10/100 Mbit/
s or 10/100/1000 Mbit/s auto-
sensing mode.
•
Provides the Layer 2 and Layer
3 Ethernet switching function,
and enables the AR1200 to
communicate with other devices
in a LAN network.
