Questions & Answers
What is the Cisco NIM-24A module?
The Cisco NIM-24A is a 24-port asynchronous serial interface module designed for ISR 4000 Series routers, providing high-density WAN connectivity for legacy serial networks.
Which Cisco routers support the NIM-24A?
The NIM-24A is compatible with Cisco ISR 4321, 4331, 4351, 4431, and 4451 routers running Cisco IOS XE software.
How many serial channels does the NIM-24A provide?
The NIM-24A delivers 24 independent asynchronous serial channels for simultaneous WAN connections.
What data rates are supported on each channel?
Each channel supports asynchronous data rates from 75 bps up to 115.2 kbps, adjustable per interface for flexible throughput.
What connector types are used on the NIM-24A?
The NIM-24A uses RJ-45 male connectors for each asynchronous serial port, supporting standard rollover and straight-through cables.
Is a software license required for the NIM-24A?
No additional software license is required; the NIM-24A is enabled by default when installed in a supported ISR 4000 Series router.
How do I install the NIM-24A in my ISR 4000 router?
Power off the router, remove the blank NIM slot cover, slide the NIM-24A into the slot until it clicks, then secure it with the captive screws.
How do I configure serial interfaces after installation?
Use Cisco IOS XE CLI: enter interface serial <slot>/<port>, assign an IP address, set encapsulation (e.g., HDLC, PPP), and bring the interface up with ‘no shutdown’.
Does the NIM-24A support common WAN protocols?
Yes. It supports HDLC, PPP, Frame Relay, and X.25 encapsulations for versatile legacy WAN connectivity.
Can I monitor performance on NIM-24A interfaces?
Yes. Use IOS XE show commands like ‘show interface serial’ and SNMP counters to track throughput, errors, and channel status.
What are typical use cases for the NIM-24A?
Common use cases include SCADA communications, POS terminal farms, remote telemetry, and multi-site serial WAN aggregation.
What is the power consumption of the NIM-24A?
The NIM-24A consumes approximately 5 W under typical load, drawing power directly from the ISR 4000 Series router chassis.
What are the environmental specifications?
Operating temperature: 0°C to 45°C; storage temperature: –40°C to 70°C; relative humidity: 5% to 85% non-condensing.
What are the physical dimensions and weight?
The module measures 142 mm x 59 mm x 18 mm (L x W x H) and weighs approximately 0.2 kg.
How do I upgrade the NIM-24A firmware?
Firmware upgrades are delivered via Cisco IOS XE image updates; simply upload the new IOS XE image to the router and reboot.
Where can I purchase the Cisco NIM-24A?
The NIM-24A is available through Cisco authorized resellers, distributors, and the Cisco online store under SKU NIM-24A.
