VIC3-2FXS/DID VS VIC3-2FXS-E/DID

[johnlloyd_13]

hi all,

we'll upgrade our router from 2811 to 2911.

the current 2811 uses VIC2-2FXS but saw on cisco's website that we need a VIC3 instead.

i saw there's two versions of this card, the other has an 'E'.

what's the difference between the two? can i just get a VIC3-2FXS/DID?

Hi John,

The difference is explained in the following link

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/interfaces-modules/ip-communications-voice-fax-network-modules/product_data_sheet0900aecd801c595e.html

VIC3-2FXS-E/DID is designated as an "Off-Premise Extension Lite" product offering. This means that while the module addresses a subset of the off-premise extension applications, it should be noted that the module is not in full compliance for off-premise usage.

Hi John,

Yes, you can use VIC3-2FXS/DID with 2900 series routers.
