The Cisco 1 and 2-port T1/E1 Multiflex Voice/WAN Interface Cards ("Multiflex VWICs") support voice, and data applications in Cisco 2600 and 3600 multiservice routers. The Multiflex VWIC combines WAN Interface Card (WIC) and Voice Interface Card (VIC) functionality to provide unparalleled flexibility, versatility and investment protection from its many uses. Customers who choose to integrate voice and data in multiple steps preserve their investment in a T1/E1 WAN interface since the Multiflex VWIC can be reused in packet voice applications.
