NIM-4BRI-NT/TE Overview
NIM-4BRI-NT/TE is a high-performance network interface module designed to deliver four Basic Rate Interface (BRI) ports that enable integrated voice and data communication. Built to interface seamlessly with enterprise routers and switches, this module connects to conventional 8P8C (RJ-45) ports and supports ISDN protocols alongside standard TCP/IP networking, ensuring reliable and simultaneous transmission over both B and D channels.
Engineered with a compact NIM form factor for straightforward installation in modular chassis, NIM-4BRI-NT/TE meets the needs of environments requiring dedicated low-speed ISDN connectivity. It is ideally suited for enhancing voice communications in data centers and branch offices while expanding overall network capabilities without compromising on performance.
NIM-4BRI-NT/TE price is $1,237.00, a 65% saving from the Cisco list price of $3,539.00. NIM-4BRI-NT/TE is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Questions & Answers
What is the Cisco NIM-4BRI-NT/TE module?
The NIM-4BRI-NT/TE is a 4-port Network Interface Module supporting ISDN Basic Rate Interface in both Network Termination (NT) and Terminal Equipment (TE) modes for Cisco ISR routers.
Which routers are compatible with the NIM-4BRI-NT/TE?
The module is compatible with Cisco 1900, 2900, 3900, 4000 and 4400 Series Integrated Services Routers that feature NIM slots.
What are the key features of the NIM-4BRI-NT/TE?
Key features include four ISDN BRI ports, configurable NT/TE modes, data and voice support, inline power for TE devices, and hot-swappable installation.
How do I install the NIM-4BRI-NT/TE in my router?
Power down the router, insert the module into an available NIM slot, tighten the captive screws, power on the router, and verify the port status in IOS®.
Can the NIM-4BRI-NT/TE operate in both NT and TE modes simultaneously?
No. All four ports share a single mode setting. You must configure the module globally as either NT or TE via IOS commands.
What IOS commands configure the NIM-4BRI-NT/TE?
Use “controller bri 0/0” then “isdn spid1 …” and “isdn switch-type basic-ni” for NT mode or “isdn switch-type primary-5ess” for TE mode, followed by dial-peer statements.
What performance can I expect from the ISDN BRI ports?
Each BRI port supports up to 128 kbps (2 B-channels at 64 kbps plus 1 D-channel at 16 kbps) for simultaneous voice and data.
Does the NIM-4BRI-NT/TE support VoIP calls?
Yes. You can route voice over IP from analog or digital telephony equipment using Cisco Unified Communications features in IOS.
What power requirements does the module have?
The NIM-4BRI-NT/TE draws up to 12 W from the router’s backplane and provides inline power for TE devices up to 8 W per port.
How do I verify that the ports are operational?
Run “show controllers bri 0/0” in privileged EXEC mode to display port status, line quality, and mode (NT/TE).
What troubleshooting steps resolve a no-dial-tone issue?
Verify mode configuration, check ISDN switch-type and SPIDs, inspect cabling and RJ-45 connectors, then reboot the router if required.
What standards does the NIM-4BRI-NT/TE comply with?
It complies with ITU-T I.430 and ETSI ETS 300-012 for ISDN Basic Rate Interface connections in NT and TE modes.
Is there a warranty for the NIM-4BRI-NT/TE?
Cisco provides a one-year limited hardware warranty. Extended service options are available through Cisco SMARTnet™ contracts.
Can I mix NIM-4BRI-NT/TE modules with other interface modules?
Yes. Cisco routers support mixed NIM configurations as long as total power and slot bandwidth requirements are met.
What use cases are ideal for this BRI module?
Ideal use cases include small-branch connectivity, backup WAN links, ISDN Telephony integration, and remote VPN over ISDN.
How do I order the NIM-4BRI-NT/TE module?
Order from Cisco resellers using SKU NIM-4BRI-NT/TE. For volume pricing or integration services, contact your Cisco account representative.
