CISCO SM-NM-ADPTR – Network Module Adapter for SM Slot on Cisco 2900, 3900 ISR

Detailed Description:

The CISCO SM-NM-ADPTR plays an integral role in the expansion and interoperability of Cisco Integrated Services Routers, specifically within the 2900 and 3900 series. This network module adapter is designed to bridge the gap between the newer Service Module (SM) slots and the older Network Module (NM) form factors, allowing for the use of existing NMs in the latest ISR chassis. This functionality is crucial for businesses and network administrators aiming to leverage their existing network module investments while benefiting from the advanced features and capabilities of the newer router platforms. By facilitating this compatibility, the adapter ensures that users can continue to utilize specialized network modules, such as voice/fax modules, ATM modules, or Ethernet switch modules, thereby extending the life and utility of their existing network hardware. Easy to install and compatible with a range of NM modules, the SM-NM-ADPTR is a cost-effective solution for enhancing network flexibility, performance, and scalability.
