Alarm Interface Controller Network Module
The Alarm Interface Controller(AIC) is a network module that greatly expandsthe network monitoring and control
capabilities of the Cisco 2600 and 3600 Series routers. The AIC functions as an integrated entity residing within the
Cisco 2600 Router to provide network alarm monitoring and remote control of network elements. The AIC reduces
service provider and enterprise operating expenses by facilitating a “single box” solution, doing away with the need
for a dedicated external alarm monitoring device. This greatly simplifies network layout, monitoring, and control
resulting inlower operations, administration, maintenance, and provisioning (OAM&P) costs. The AIC is supported
in Cisco IOS® 12.2(2)XG and 12.2(8)T. The AIC network module supports 64 discrete alarm monitoring points, of
which 8 of the last 64 alarm points are software- configurable to accept either analog or discrete inputs. The AIC
further supports 16 control relays to facilitate the remote control of network elements.
WAN Interface Card Options
The Cisco 2600 Series supports all WAN Interface Cards available for the Cisco 1600, 1700, 3600, and 3700 Series,
as well as two new dual-port serial WAN interface cards to maximize interface density and slot efficiency. The new
dual-serial port WAN interface cardsfeature Cisco’s new, compact, high-densitySmart Serial connector to supporta
wide variety of electrical interfaces when used with the appropriate transition cable.
