The Cisco Third-Generation (3G) Wireless WAN (WWAN) High-Speed WAN Interface Cards (HWICs) represent a significant advancement in enterprise-class wireless connectivity. Designed specifically for Cisco Integrated Services Routers, these cards provide a robust and reliable solution for businesses seeking to enhance their network infrastructure. By offering a high-speed wireless alternative to traditional wireline services, these cards help organizations improve business continuity, reduce operational costs, and ensure that mission-critical data remains accessible even during primary network failures.
These interface cards are engineered to support a wide range of applications, from serving as a dependable backup for branch offices to acting as a primary connectivity solution for remote sites or mobile environments. Because they are tightly integrated with Cisco’s industry-leading IOS Software, they allow businesses to maintain consistent security, quality of service, and management capabilities across their entire network, regardless of whether the traffic is flowing through a standard wired connection or a wireless 3G link.
Product overview
The Cisco 3G WWAN HWIC series is divided into two primary technology categories to accommodate different global wireless standards. The first category includes models based on the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) and Universal Mobile Telecommunications Service (UMTS) standards, which support HSPA, HSUPA, HSDPA, EDGE, and GPRS. The second category consists of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) models based on 3GPP2 standards, supporting EVDO Rev A/Rev 0 and 1xRTT. These variants ensure that businesses can select the appropriate hardware to match the specific wireless carrier infrastructure available in their region.
These cards are compatible with a variety of Cisco platforms, including the 1841 and 1861, as well as the 1900, 2800, 2900, 3800, and 3900 series Integrated Services Routers. Beyond the cards themselves, Cisco provides a comprehensive ecosystem of accessories, including various antenna types—such as swivel-mount dipoles, ceiling-mount omnidirectional antennas, and outdoor low-profile options—along with specialized antenna extensions and lightning arrestors. This modular approach allows for flexible deployment in diverse physical environments, ensuring optimal signal strength and network performance.
Features and benefits
- Integrated 3G Broadband: The modem is built directly into the router, simplifying installation and management while providing full access to advanced Cisco IOS features like Quality of Service (QoS) and robust security.
- Rapid Deployment: Wireless connectivity allows businesses to bypass the long wait times often associated with installing traditional data circuits, enabling instant network setup in new or temporary locations.
- Enhanced Network Resiliency: By providing a non-terrestrial data path, these cards offer true WAN diversity, ensuring that branch offices remain connected even if the primary wireline infrastructure fails.
- Cost-Effectiveness: 3G WWAN services are competitively priced compared to traditional ISDN, DSL, or cable services, and they allow for the consolidation of service provider contracts.
- High Performance: With low latency and data rates approaching T1 speeds, these cards are capable of handling mission-critical applications, including voice, video, and data traffic.
- Portability: The solution is highly mobile, allowing routers to be easily relocated to any area with cellular coverage, which is particularly useful for disaster recovery or temporary site connectivity.
- Comprehensive Diagnostics: The cards support industry-standard monitoring tools and Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI) management, facilitating easier troubleshooting and maintenance.
The Cisco Third-Generation (3G) Wireless WAN (WWAN) High-Speed WAN Interface Cards (HWICs) for Cisco Integrated Services Routers provide the next generation of wireless WAN backup solutions.
Product Overview
• Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) and UMTS models are based on 3GPP, and they support HSPA (High-Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) and High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA)), UMTS, EDGE, and GPRS.
• Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) models are based on 3GPP2, and they support EVDO Rev A/Rev 0 and 1xRTT.

Figure 1. 3G Wireless WAN HWICs for Cisco Integrated Services Routers

With enhanced data rates and improved latency (below 100 milliseconds), WWAN services are an ideal way to supplement traditional wire line services. 3G WWAN data services offered today have average data rates well in excess of ISDN speeds, with theoretical limits in excess of 7 Mbps on the downlink and 5 Mbps on the uplink. You can use the 3G WWAN as a primary link for sites with lower bandwidth requirements and for mobile applications. You can also use the 3G WWAN data services as a cost-effective alternative in areas where broadband services are either not available or very expensive. Cisco is building on these performance milestones and adding support for wireless to our wide variety of WAN interface alternatives.
Key Business Benefits
Applications
WAN Backup
Resilient WAN access is a crucial requirement for branch offices connecting to a corporate site or the Internet. Although DSL, Frame Relay, ISDN, and dialup are common choices for backup if a primary WAN link fails, a non-terrestrial data path such as a 3G WWAN provides enhanced WAN diversity (Figure 2). Cisco 3G WWAN HWICs combined with the Cisco integrated services routers offer the capability to automatically initiate connection over the 3G WWAN when the primary WAN link is unavailable. In addition, you can use Cisco 3G WWAN HWICs to provide supplemental bandwidth when the primary WAN link is overloaded.

Primary Connectivity
Key Features and Benefits
• Integrated 3G WWAN broadband: With the 3G WWAN modem integrated into the router, you gain the benefit of simplified installation and management. In addition, the Cisco 3G WWAN HWICs are tightly integrated with Cisco integrated services routers, which run the industry-leading Cisco IOS Software, giving you access to all the advanced features of Cisco IOS Software such as quality of service (QoS), intelligent network queuing, and robust security.
• Short installation time: Businesses sometimes wait for weeks or months to get data circuits installed at new locations. For temporary or seasonal sites, wireless data services allow instant connectivity anywhere there is cellular coverage, and rapid deployment allows you to quickly set up networks with WAN connectivity.
• Network resiliency through WAN diversity: WAN connectivity is crucial to the functioning of your business, and any downtime means a loss of productivity and lost opportunity. Staying connected and operational during a network outage can be vital. A wireless connection for backup to a remote site provides protection against line outages and an additional level of redundancy because the 3G WWAN infrastructure is often served by separate facilities, providing redundancy for the entire local loop.
• Portability: You can easily relocate wireless routers and Cisco 3G WWAN HWICs wherever coverage is available.
• Performance: With increasing data usage and the proliferation of web-based applications at remote sites, there is an increasing need for high-speed (broadband) data connections to run mission-critical applications at these sites. 3G WWAN services promise low-latency links at speeds approaching T1 connections, allowing you to send and receive more mission-critical data across the WAN in backup scenarios.
