WIC−1B−S/T Interface Card
Cisco − WIC−1B−S/T and WIC−1B−U WAN Interface Cards Cable Specifications

The Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Basic Rate Interface (BRI) WAN interface cards are shared
between the Cisco 1600, 1720, 2600 and 3600 Series Routers. Each card supports a single ISDN BRI port
offered with and without the NT1 interface.
The S/T WAN interface card module (WIC−1B−S/T) needs the external Network Termination 1 (NT1) device
whereas the U WAN interface card module (WIC−1B−U) has an internal NT1 device.
Cables
The WIC−1B−S/T interface card requires RJ−45 to RJ−45 straight−through cables (provided by the
customer).
ISDN BRI S/T Port Pinouts

1Pins 1, 2, 7, and 8 are not used.
2TE refers to terminal terminating Layer 1 aspects of TE1, TA, and NT functional groups. This applies to the
Cisco 1603 and the ISDN BRI S/T WAN interface card.
3NT refers to network terminating Layer 1 aspects of NT1 and NT2 functional groups. This applies to the
Cisco 1604 ISDN S/T port.
