NIM-2CE1T1-PRI Description
NIM-2CE1T1-PRI is a Cisco 2-port T1/E1 PRI Network Interface Module for Cisco ASR 1001-X router deployments. It belongs to the supported T1/E1 NIM category and provides two ports, clear-channel data support, unstructured E1 (G.703) support, and channelized data support, while MFT packet voice is not supported for this PID. The module adds dual T1/E1 PRI connectivity for ASR 1001-X designs that need channelized or clear-channel WAN circuits.

Application Scenarios
Select NIM-2CE1T1-PRI when the Cisco ASR 1001-X bill needs a supported T1/E1 NIM entry with two ports instead of a one-port or eight-port CE1T1-PRI module.
Use this SKU when the design specifically needs the CE1T1-PRI row that Cisco marks for clear-channel data, unstructured E1 support, and channelized data.
Keep NIM-2CE1T1-PRI separate from MFT T1/E1 NIMs during quote cleanup because Cisco marks the CE1T1-PRI models for channelized data while the MFT rows in the same table are not marked for channelized data.

- In a NIM-2CE1T1-PRI vs NIM-1CE1T1-PRI comparison, the table-backed difference is port count: NIM-2CE1T1-PRI has two ports, while NIM-1CE1T1-PRI has one port.
- The NIM-2CE1T1-PRI vs NIM-8CE1T1-PRI comparison is also a port-count and planning-note decision because Cisco lists eight ports for NIM-8CE1T1-PRI and adds a channel-group note for that higher-density SKU.
- For buyers deciding which model to choose, the CE1T1-PRI comparison should start with the number of T1/E1 ports required and then confirm the clear-channel, unstructured E1, and channelized data requirements shown in the Cisco ASR 1001-X table.
Selection Guide
1. Choose the two-port CE1T1-PRI row when density matches
Select NIM-2CE1T1-PRI when the ASR 1001-X order needs two T1/E1 NIM ports and the BOM requires the CE1T1-PRI capabilities listed for clear-channel data, unstructured E1, and channelized data.
2. Move down to one port when the circuit count is smaller
Use NIM-1CE1T1-PRI instead when the same CE1T1-PRI data-support profile is needed but the router design only needs one listed T1/E1 port.
3. Review the eight-port note before increasing density
Move to NIM-8CE1T1-PRI only when eight ports are required and the deployment can account for Cisco’s note that each NIM-8CE1T1-PRI port supports only 15 channel groups.
4. Keep packet voice requirements out of this order line
Verify the voice requirement before final approval because Cisco marks MFT packet voice as No for NIM-2CE1T1-PRI in the ASR 1001-X supported NIM table.
Ordering Checklist
|
Check Item |
What to Confirm |
Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
|
Exact PID |
NIM-2CE1T1-PRI |
Prevents substitution with the one-port or eight-port CE1T1-PRI module |
|
Router context |
Cisco ASR 1001-X supported T1/E1 NIM table |
Keeps the order tied to a Cisco-confirmed host context |
|
Port count |
Two listed T1/E1 ports |
Avoids under-ordering with NIM-1CE1T1-PRI or over-ordering with NIM-8CE1T1-PRI |
|
Data profile |
Clear-channel data, unstructured E1, and channelized data all marked Yes |
Confirms that the selected CE1T1-PRI row matches the required data service profile |
|
Packet voice boundary |
MFT packet voice marked No |
Prevents using this SKU for a packet voice requirement Cisco does not mark for this row |
|
Higher-density alternative |
NIM-8CE1T1-PRI has the Cisco channel-group note |
Forces a channel-group review before changing the BOM to the eight-port CE1T1-PRI module |
