Scenario: A satellite branch located 20 km from headquarters requires 4 Mbps symmetrical throughput for VoIP, video conferencing and ERP access over existing copper loops. Implementation: Install the HWIC-2SHDSL 2-pair G.SHDSL High-Speed WAN Interface card in a Cisco ISR router, bond both copper pairs and provision committed information rates via NMS. Benefit: Delivers reliable, low-latency symmetrical bandwidth with carrier-grade SLAs at a fraction of fiber deployment costs, ensuring seamless application performance and business continuity.
Scenario: A water utility’s remote pumping station sits 30 km from the control center and demands 2 Mbps symmetrical connectivity for SCADA telemetry and real-time control. Implementation: Equip a Cisco ISR with the HWIC-2SHDSL 2-pair G.SHDSL module, integrate with RTUs, secure traffic via IPsec VPN and monitor link health centrally. Benefit: Provides a secure, long-reach symmetrical G.SHDSL link over existing copper infrastructure, maximizing operational uptime, reducing OPEX and meeting industrial compliance standards.
Scenario: A managed service provider needs to deliver 3 Mbps symmetrical VPN services to multiple small-to-mid-size clients over legacy copper lines. Implementation: Deploy the HWIC-2SHDSL 2-pair G.SHDSL High-Speed WAN Interface card across Cisco ISR platforms, configure per-customer IPsec tunnels, apply QoS policies and integrate with centralized monitoring. Benefit: Enables scalable, high-speed symmetrical WAN services with guaranteed bandwidth, simplified roll-out and reduced capital and operational expenses compared to leased fiber solutions.

The Cisco HWIC-2SHDSL= is a 2-pair G.SHDSL High-Speed WAN Interface Card for Cisco 1800, 2800, and 3800 series routers that delivers up to 5.7 Mbps per pair (11.4 Mbps aggregate) over copper.
The HWIC-2SHDSL= is supported on Cisco 1800, 2800, and 3800 series Integrated Services Routers with an available HWIC slot and compatible Cisco IOS WAN feature set.
The module supports symmetrical data rates from 192 kbps to 5.7 Mbps per pair, allowing an aggregate throughput of up to 11.4 Mbps using both pairs.
G.SHDSL on the HWIC-2SHDSL= can span up to 5.5 km (3.4 miles) over 24 AWG copper, depending on loop quality and without requiring repeaters.
The card uses RJ-48C modular jacks on standard shielded or unshielded twisted-pair (24 AWG) copper wiring with North American cross-connect pinouts.
No additional license is required; you only need the appropriate Cisco IOS WAN or Security feature set that includes G.SHDSL support.
Use Cisco IOS CLI: enter interface serial <slot>/<port>, set encapsulation (HDLC or PPP), configure shdsl rate <bandwidth>, and apply dialer or static dial profile.
Yes, the HWIC-2SHDSL= supports channelized DS0s for voice and data simultaneously, with QoS and voice-VLAN tagging managed by Cisco IOS.
The card is managed via Cisco IOS CLI, SNMP (MIB-II, IF-MIB, Performance-MIB), CiscoWorks, and standard monitoring tools over the router’s management interfaces.
The HWIC-2SHDSL= typically consumes 1.8 W under load, with a maximum draw of 2.5 W, ensuring minimal impact on overall router power budgets.
The module operates at 0 °C to 45 °C (32 °F to 113 °F) and 10% to 90% non-condensing humidity, meeting standard commercial temperature and humidity ranges.
Cisco provides a one-year limited hardware warranty with optional Smart Net Total Care support for next-business-day replacement and 24/7 TAC access.
Firmware is upgraded via Cisco IOS: use the 'upgrade hw-module slot <n> rom' command pointed to a TFTP or FTP server hosting the new IOS image.
Alternatives include the Cisco HWIC-1SHDSL= (single-pair), HWIC-2SHDSL-VDSL for VDSL, and HWIC-2T1/E1 for T1/E1 connectivity based on deployment requirements.
You can purchase the HWIC-2SHDSL= through Cisco authorized resellers, Cisco Direct, or certified online partners for genuine hardware and support.
The module conforms to Cisco’s HWIC form factor, measuring approximately 83 mm × 69 mm (3.3″ × 2.7″) and occupying one HWIC slot in the router chassis.
