Cisco NIM-16A Network Interface Module - 16-Port Asynchronous Serial, ISR 4000 Series, Refurbished

The Cisco NIM-16A is a refurbished Network Interface Module with 16 asynchronous serial ports. Designed for Cisco ISR 4000 Series routers, it provides high-density connectivity primarily for out-of-band management of network devices and integration of legacy serial equipment.

✅ Key Features: Refurbished Condition: This unit is a remanufactured (refurbished) product, offering a cost-effective solution that meets Cisco's quality standards. 16 Asynchronous Serial Ports: Provides 16 RJ-45 serial ports, enabling high-density asynchronous connectivity within your router. Out-of-Band Management: Ideal for centralized out-of-band management, allowing secure console or auxiliary access to a large number of network devices (e.g., servers, switches, other routers). Legacy Device Integration: Facilitates the connection of various legacy serial devices into modern network infrastructures. Cisco ISR 4000 Series Compatibility: Designed for seamless integration into Cisco ISR 4000 Series Integrated Services Routers (e.g., ISR 4321, 4331, 4351, 4431, 4451). Data Connectivity: Supports asynchronous serial data applications; it is not an analog voice (FXS/FXO) module. High Port Density: Maximizes the utilization of router NIM slots by offering a significant number of serial ports in a single module. Simplified Troubleshooting: Enables remote access to devices even when the primary network is down, aiding in faster troubleshooting and recovery. Genuine Cisco Part: Ensures proper functionality, compatibility, and reliability when used with supported Cisco routers.
