FIC/DFIC
For modular MSR series routers, a wide range of optional FICs/DFICs are available, which provide
multiple types of interfaces, such as synchronous/asynchronous serial interface, Ethernet interface,
E1/T1, ISDN BRI/PRI, audio interface, and Layer 2 switching interface.
Among these interface modules, the Layer 2 switching interface modules (FIC-16FSW and
DFIC-24FSW) each have a PoE-capable module. The module provides –48 VDC power to remote
PDs (such as IP phone, WLAN AP, and network camera) through straight-through network cables if it
is installed on a PoE router.

Introduction
The 16/24-port 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Layer 2 switching MIM interface module
(FIC-16FSW/FIC-16FSW-PoE/DFIC-24FSW/DFIC-24FSW-PoE) is used on the HPE MSR50 series
router. A router installed with FIC-16FSW/DFIC-24FSW modules can act as a switching/routing
integrated device on a small-sized enterprise network to connect PCs and network devices inside
the network. The interfaces provided on the FIC-16FSW/FIC-16FSW-PoE and
DFIC-24FSW/DFIC-24FSW-PoE are as follows:
The FIC-16FSW/FIC-16FSW-PoE provides the following features:
• 16 10/100 Mbps RJ-45 connector interfaces on the FIC-16FSW module
• One 10/100/1000 Mbps gigabit RJ-45 connector electrical interface on the FIC-16FSW module
• 1 SFP fiber interface (Fiber interfaces and gigabit electrical interfaces share the MAC layer) on
the FIC-16FSW module
The DFIC-24FSW/DFIC-24FSW-PoE provides the following features:
• 2 SFP fiber interfaces (Fiber interfaces and gigabit electrical interfaces share the MAC layer) on
the DMIM-24FSW module. By default, the electrical interfaces take effect.
