Questions & Answers
What is the Cisco NM-16ESW 16-port 10/100 EtherSwitch Network Module?
The Cisco NM-16ESW is a network module for Cisco Integrated Services Routers that adds sixteen 10/100 Mbps switching ports, enabling LAN expansion and simplified network topologies.
Which Cisco routers are compatible with the NM-16ESW module?
The NM-16ESW is compatible with Cisco 1841, 2811, 2821, 2851, 2911, 2921, 2951, 3745, and select Cisco 3800 and 3900 Series Integrated Services Routers.
How do I install the NM-16ESW in my Cisco router?
Power off the router, remove the blank network module faceplate, slide in the NM-16ESW until it clicks, secure the module with screws, and power on the router.
What switching features does the NM-16ESW support?
It supports IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging, port-based VLANs, broadcast storm control, basic QoS, port security, IGMP snooping, and Spanning Tree Protocol.
Can I configure VLANs on the Cisco NM-16ESW?
Yes. The module supports up to 64 VLANs using standard IEEE 802.1Q trunking and VLAN interfaces through the router’s IOS command-line interface.
What is the maximum forwarding rate of the NM-16ESW?
The NM-16ESW can forward up to 8.8 million packets per second (mpps), ensuring non-blocking wire-speed performance across all 16 ports.
Does the NM-16ESW support Quality of Service (QoS)?
Yes. The module offers basic QoS with four hardware queues, class-based weighted fair queuing (CBWFQ), and traffic policing to prioritize critical applications.
How is power supplied to the NM-16ESW module?
The NM-16ESW draws power directly from the router’s internal power supply—no external power source is needed.
What cable types can I use with the 10/100 ports?
Use standard Category 5e or better unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cables terminated with RJ-45 connectors for all 16 Fast Ethernet ports.
Does the NM-16ESW support PoE (Power over Ethernet)?
No. The NM-16ESW does not provide PoE. For PoE support, consider using a Cisco switch with integrated PoE capabilities.
What software version is required for the NM-16ESW?
Cisco IOS Software Release 12.4(15)T or later is recommended to ensure full feature support and compatibility with the NM-16ESW.
How can I monitor port status on the NM-16ESW?
Use the IOS command-line interface with commands like 'show interfaces status' and 'show vlan' to view port link state, speed, duplex, and VLAN assignments.
What security features are available on the NM-16ESW?
The module supports port security, MAC address filtering, 802.1X authentication, DHCP snooping, and broadcast/multicast storm control.
Can I stack multiple NM-16ESW modules in a single router?
Most Cisco ISR platforms allow only one network module per chassis. Check your router’s hardware installation guide for module bay configurations.
What is the warranty on the NM-16ESW module?
Cisco offers a limited lifetime warranty for the NM-16ESW, covering hardware defects and replacement. Terms vary by region—refer to Cisco warranty documentation.
How does the NM-16ESW improve network scalability?
By adding 16 integrated switch ports, the module consolidates routing and switching, reduces hardware complexity, and simplifies VLAN segmentation for growing networks.
