Cisco NIM-4BRI-NT/TE 4-porttinen ISDN BRI -verkkoliitäntämoduuli

The Cisco NIM-4BRI-NT/TE is a high-performance 4-port ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) Network Interface Module designed for Cisco ISR 4000 Series routers. It supports both NT (Network Termination) and TE (Terminal Equipment) modes, providing flexible connectivity for voice, data, and video applications over ISDN lines. This module enables reliable WAN connectivity, backup, and integrated services in a compact single-wide NIM form factor.

Advantages

With four independent BRI ports, the NIM-4BRI-NT/TE offers cost-effective ISDN connectivity for branch offices and remote sites. It supports multiple signaling protocols including Euro-ISDN, NI-1, DMS-100, and 5ESS, ensuring compatibility with various ISDN networks worldwide. The module is hot-swappable and managed via Cisco IOS CLI or SNMP, simplifying deployment and maintenance. Echo cancellation enhances voice call quality, making it ideal for integrated voice and data solutions.
