Product Description P/N: HWIC-1FE
Description
The Cisco HWIC-1FE is a 1-Port Fast Ethernet High-Speed WAN Interface Card designed to expand routed Layer 3 connectivity on Cisco Integrated Services Routers. It provides a dedicated 10/100 Mbps Ethernet WAN port with full Layer 3 capabilities—matching the performance and feature set of onboard router LAN interfaces. Ideal for small to large business networks, it enables flexible WAN expansion, advanced QoS, ACLs, and rate-limiting features.

Information About HWIC-1FE
The Cisco HWIC-1FE is a versatile interface module designed for Cisco 1841, 2800, and 3800 Series ISR routers, providing reliable routed Fast Ethernet connectivity for WAN uplinks. It supports 10/100 Mbps transmission and offers the same Layer 3 routed features as the router’s native Ethernet ports—including routing, VLANs (802.1Q), IP addressing, per-port ACLs, traffic shaping, and QoS. This module is widely used in branch offices and enterprise networks to add dedicated WAN-facing Ethernet connections, enabling ISP handoffs, Metro Ethernet, business fiber, and routed connections that require hardware isolation from LAN ports.
Key Features:
- 1-Port routed Fast Ethernet interface (10/100 Mbps)
- Adds Layer 3 WAN connectivity to Cisco ISR routers
- Supports QoS, ACLs, rate limiting, VLANs, and routing
- Same performance and features as onboard router Ethernet ports
- Suitable for Ethernet handoff, broadband access, and managed WAN services
- Compatible with Cisco 1841, 2800, and 3800 Series routers
- IEEE standards compliant (802.3, 802.3u, 802.1Q, 802.3x)
- Compact plug-in HWIC module; no external power required
- 1-Port 10/100 Mbps routed Ethernet HWIC for Cisco ISR routers providing Layer 3 WAN connectivity with QoS, ACLs, and full routing support.
The HWIC-1FE supports multiple transport protocols including TCP/IP, PPPoE, and L2TP, making it suitable for a range of service provider technologies, including Ethernet handoff, broadband, and VPN-based architectures. It can also integrate with T1, ISDN, xDSL, and other WAN deployments depending on the router platform and network configuration.
