NM-1FE1CT1, NM-1FE1CT1-CSU, NM-1FE1CE1B, NM-1FE1CE1U, NM-1FE2CT1,
NM-1FE2CT1-CSU, NM-1FE2CE1B, and NM-1FE2CE1U network modules were introduced in 1998. They
provide Fast Ethernet and T1/E1 connectivity options that, when combined with digital modem network
modules, enable digital dial in a Cisco 3620 while providing a LAN connection. Since the Cisco
NM-1FE2CT1-CSU and NM-1FE2CE1U are used in Cisco 3620 dial bundles—Cisco 3620MBUNDLE-24DM
and 3620MBUNDLE-30DM—it is also necessary to announce the end of sale of these bundles. Cisco is announcing
the end of sale of these network modules and associated bundles, with a last sale date of September 24, 2003.

Recommended Replacement Products
Recommended Replacement Products for Cisco Network Modules
The recommended replacement products are the Cisco NM-1CT1, NM-1CT1-CSU, NM-1CE1B, NM-1CE1U,
NM-2CT1, NM-2CT1-CSU, NM-2CE1B, and NM-2CE1U network modules (Table 2). These modules are
supported in all of the Cisco 2600, 3600, and 3700 series routers. Please note that the recommended replacement
products do not include a built-in Fast Ethernet port. However for most applications and configurations, these
modules can still act as a direct replacement for the LAN/WAN combination network modules affected by this end
of sale announcement.
Details on the Cisco NM-1CT1, NM-1CT1-CSU, NM-1CE1B, NM-1CE1U, NM-2CT1, NM-2CT1-CSU,
NM-2CE1B, and NM-2CE1U network modules can be found in the data sheet, available at:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps274/products_data_sheet09186a0080091b85.html
Recommended Migration for Cisco 3620 Dial Bundles
The recommended replacement products for Cisco 3620 dial bundles are the Cisco 3725 dial bundles. The
replacement one- and two-Primary Rate Interface (PRI) WAN network modules, when combined with the digital
modem network module in a Cisco 3725 dial bundle, provide the same capabilities as a similarly equipped Cisco
3620—but offer greater flexibility and investment protection at the same solution price. Cisco 3725 dial solutions
offer the following advantages over similarly equipped Cisco 3620 solutions:
• An additional Fast Ethernet port
• Three additional WAN interface slots

Customers using E1 circuits must choose balanced versus unbalanced operation when ordering the Cisco 3725 dial
bundles. The balancedversus unbalanced configurationcannot be changed in the field.The recommended migration
options are listed in Table 3.
