The Cisco HWIC-3G-CDMA is a High-Speed WAN Interface Card for Cisco ISR routers that delivers CDMA-based 3G connectivity with EV-DO Rev A and 1xRTT support on 800/1900 MHz bands.
The HWIC-3G-CDMA is supported on Cisco ISR 1800, 2800, and 3800 series routers that feature an available HWIC expansion slot.
This module supports EV-DO Rev A for high-speed packet data and legacy 1xRTT for fallback connectivity on CDMA networks.
The HWIC-3G-CDMA operates on the 800 MHz and 1900 MHz CDMA frequency bands, covering major North American carriers.
EV-DO Rev A delivers up to 3.1 Mbps downlink and 1.8 Mbps uplink, while 1xRTT offers up to 153.6 Kbps in both directions.
Power off the router, slide the HWIC-3G-CDMA into an empty HWIC slot, secure the module with its retention screw, then power on the router.
In global config, enter interface cellular 0/0/0, set service-type evdo or 1xRTT, configure a dialer profile and dialer-group, then assign IP settings or PPP as needed.
CDMA networks use RUIM (Removable User Identity Module) cards instead of SIMs; insert a carrier-provided RUIM to authenticate on the network.
Yes, the module automatically falls back to 1xRTT when EV-DO Rev A coverage is unavailable, ensuring continuous connectivity.
The HWIC-3G-CDMA works on any CDMA network operating at 800/1900 MHz, including major North American carriers such as Verizon and Sprint.
International use depends on CDMA roaming agreements. Verify your carrier’s roaming support on 800/1900 MHz networks before deployment.
The module transparently transports encrypted VPN traffic; for hardware-accelerated encryption, leverage the router’s integrated encryption engine or modules.
The HWIC-3G-CDMA consumes under 4 W of power and conforms to Cisco HWIC power specifications for ISR routers.
Use the Cisco IOS 'archive download-sw' command or Cisco Prime Infrastructure to upload and install the latest 3G WWAN module firmware.
Cisco offers a one-year limited hardware warranty on the HWIC-3G-CDMA. Extended support is available through Cisco Smart Net Total Care contracts.
Typical use cases include primary or backup WAN connectivity, remote field deployments, mobile command centers, and any application requiring 3G failover.
