C-NIM-2T is a Cisco 2-port 100-Mbps/1-Gbps WAN Network Interface Module with RJ-45/SFP combo groups for Catalyst 8300. Two RJ-45/SFP combo groups let each group use copper or fiber, with one port from each group active at a time. Catalyst 8200 and 8200L take it too. Cisco Catalyst 8300 Network Interface Module builds use a front NIM slot, or an SM-X slot through C-SM-NIM-ADPT on Catalyst 8300. The module terminates routed Layer 3 Ethernet WAN handoffs from external switches. C-NIM-1M gives one 1/2.5-Gbps RJ-45 port with 90W UPOE; this 2-port dual-mode GE/SFP NIM gives two active media-selectable groups.

1 Gbps per port is the highest rated speed, and each RJ-45 side runs 100BASE-TX or 1000BASE-T. SFP sides run 100BASE-FX or 1000BASE-X with Cisco transceivers. 256-bit WAN MACsec is the module feature to match with the software release. C-NIM-2T needs Cisco IOS XE 17.6.1. Direct NIM slots allow online insertion, not online removal. Full OIR applies when the NIM is installed in C-SM-NIM-ADPT. C8300-2N2S models take two native NIM slots and six NIMs with carrier adapters. C8300-1N1S models take one native NIM slot and three NIMs with carrier adapters. C8200 and C8200L models take one NIM slot.
C-NIM-2T is available in new sealed and certified refurbished condition. Certified refurbished units have connectors, cages, latch and faceplate inspected, optics bay recognition, and every port links at rated speed with a Cisco transceiver. Before the PO, confirm the Catalyst 8300, Catalyst 8200 or 8200L chassis, the free NIM slot or C-SM-NIM-ADPT carrier, Cisco IOS XE 17.6.1, and each SFP PID. UK, EU, US and MEA regional stock and RMA cover advance replacement; PO accepted and Net-30 for government. New units carry up to 3-year extended warranty, certified refurbished units carry up to 1 year, and returns are 30 days on every condition; terms apply.

Fits | Catalyst 8300 / Catalyst 8200 / Catalyst 8200L |
Module Features | Dual combo groups / 256-bit WAN MACsec |

Minimum Software | Cisco IOS XE 17.6.1 |
An operations team has a failed two-port Ethernet WAN NIM in a Catalyst 8300, Catalyst 8200 or 8200L router. The replacement must match one NIM slot, Cisco IOS XE 17.6.1 and the existing RJ-45 or SFP handoff. Count one module per failed slot before the PO.
A branch router needs two 100-Mbps or 1-Gbps fiber WAN handoffs without changing the chassis. Each C-NIM-2T SFP group uses one Cisco SFP, and only one SFP or RJ-45 side in a group runs at a time. Count the SFP PIDs and match the far-end speed before the PO.
A Catalyst 8300 build has native NIM slots full and free SM-X slots. C-SM-NIM-ADPT carries two NIMs in one SM-X slot and gives full OIR. C8300-2N2S models reach six NIMs with adapters, and C8300-1N1S models reach three. Count adapters, NIMs and blanks before the PO.
10-Gbps WAN links
C-NIM-2T tops out at 1 Gbps per active port. C-NIM-1X provides one 1/10-Gbps SFP/SFP+ WAN port for Catalyst 8300 platforms.
2.5-Gbps PoE copper
C-NIM-2T has 100M/1G copper and no PoE budget. C-NIM-1M provides one 1/2.5-Gbps RJ-45 WAN port with 90W IEEE 802.3 af/at/bt.
ISR 4000 installation
C-NIM-2T does not fit Cisco 4000 Series ISR platforms. Cisco named it as a Catalyst 8000 migration PID, so the host must change to Catalyst 8300 or 8200.

C-NIM-2T is the Cisco 2-port 100-Mbps/1-Gbps dual-mode GE/SFP Network Interface Module for Catalyst 8300, Catalyst 8200 and 8200L. C-NIM marks a Catalyst Network Interface Module, and 2T marks two Ethernet WAN combo groups. Each group uses either RJ-45 copper or SFP fiber.
C-NIM-2T fits Catalyst 8300, Catalyst 8200 and 8200L platforms. The model set is C8300-2N2S-4T2X, C8300-2N2S-6T, C8300-1N1S-4T2X, C8300-1N1S-6T, C8200-1N-4T and C8200L-1N-4T. Cisco 4000 Series ISR platforms do not take C-NIM and C-SM modules.
A Catalyst 8300 uses C-NIM-2T for two 100-Mbps/1-Gbps routed Ethernet WAN combo groups. The same Ethernet routed-port group also has C-NIM-1X for one 1/10-Gbps SFP/SFP+ WAN port and C-NIM-1M for one 1/2.5-Gbps mGig RJ-45 WAN port with UPOE.
C-NIM-2T provides two active 100-Mbps/1-Gbps Ethernet WAN ports through two RJ-45/SFP combo groups. RJ-45 sides run 100BASE-TX or 1000BASE-T. SFP sides run 100BASE-FX or 1000BASE-X. One connector from each group runs at a time, so the far end must match copper or fiber speed.
C-NIM-2T takes 1G SFP PIDs such as SFP-GE-S, SFP-GE-L, GLC-SX-MMD, GLC-LH-SMD, GLC-EX-SMD, GLC-ZX-SMD, GLC-BX-D and GLC-BX-U. For 100BASE-FX fiber, it takes GLC-FE-100FX, GLC-FE-100LX and GLC-FE-100EX. Order one Cisco SFP per fiber port in use.
Catalyst 8300 2N2S models take two native NIM slots and reach six NIMs with C-SM-NIM-ADPT carrier adapters. Catalyst 8300 1N1S models take one native NIM slot and reach three NIMs with carrier adapters. Catalyst 8200 and 8200L models take one NIM slot and no SM-X carrier slot.
C-NIM-2T adds two RJ-45/SFP combo groups, so the buyer can choose copper or fiber media per active group. It also adds 256-bit WAN MACsec on routed Layer 3 WAN ports. The host routes traffic entering the module, and local Layer 2 switching between module ports is not part of this module.
C-NIM-2T requires Cisco IOS XE 17.6.1 for Catalyst 8300, Catalyst 8200 and 8200L hosts. Catalyst 8300 interface releases also pair the module with XE SD-WAN 17.6.1 and vManage 20.6.1. Use the higher host floor when a router image baseline is above the module release.
C-NIM-2T= is the spare form of C-NIM-2T. The spare form uses the same 2-port 100-Mbps/1-Gbps dual-mode GE/SFP Network Interface Module hardware and the same host fit. Order C-NIM-2T when the bill of materials needs the base PID rather than the spare form.
C-NIM-2T gives two RJ-45/SFP combo groups, and C-NIM-1M gives one 1/2.5-Gbps RJ-45 WAN port with 90W IEEE 802.3 af/at/bt UPOE. Choose C-NIM-2T for two copper-or-fiber WAN handoffs. Choose C-NIM-1M when the order needs 2.5-Gbps copper or UPOE on one port.
C-NIM-2T gives two 100-Mbps/1-Gbps RJ-45/SFP combo groups for Catalyst 8300, Catalyst 8200 and 8200L. C-NIM-1X gives one 1/10-Gbps SFP/SFP+ WAN port and fits Catalyst 8300 platforms. Choose C-NIM-2T for two 1G media-selectable links, or C-NIM-1X for one 10G SFP+ link.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for C-NIM-2T. It serves Catalyst 8300, Catalyst 8200 and 8200L hosts, and Cisco IOS XE 17.6.1 is the module release floor. Cisco named C-NIM-2T as the Catalyst 8000 migration PID for NIM-1GE-CU-SFP and NIM-2GE-CU-SFP.
ORM offers C-NIM-2T in new sealed and certified refurbished condition. New sealed units carry up to 3-year extended warranty, and certified refurbished units carry up to 1 year. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested in a compatible host. Returns are 30 days on every condition; terms apply.
