SM-X-16G4M2X Description
The SM-X-16G4M2X is a Cisco single-wide SM-X Layer 2 EtherSwitch service module for Cisco ISR 4000 branches that need local access switching and fiber uplinks. The module has 16 1G RJ-45 ports, four 2.5G mGig RJ-45 ports and two SFP/SFP+ ports, with PoE and PoE+ on copper ports and UPOE on up to eight. It is supported on the Cisco 4461, 4451, 4351 and 4331, and 128-bit LAN MACsec needs a SEC license.

Application Scenarios
At a branch with a Cisco 4331 or 4451, the module provides 16 Gigabit copper ports for desktops, phones and printers inside the router chassis, so the site needs no separate access switch.
A site with wireless access points that need 2.5G links can connect them to the four mGig ports and hand traffic to an aggregation switch over the two SFP+ ports at 10G.

SM-X-16G4M2X is the single-wide SM-X module of this group, with 16 RJ-45 1G ports, 4 RJ-45 2.5G mGig ports and 2 SFP/SFP+ ports, while SM-X-40G8M2X is double-wide with 40 1G ports, 8 mGig ports and the same 2 SFP/SFP+ ports. A branch that needs the 40-port profile and can give up a double-wide slot orders SM-X-40G8M2X, which is listed for Cisco 4461, 4451 and 4351 but not for Cisco 4331, where SM-X-16G4M2X is supported. Where the free slot is a NIM position and eight PoE/PoE+ Gigabit ports are enough, NIM-ES2-8-P is the option, but it has no mGig or SFP/SFP+ ports, so sites that need 2.5G access or 10G uplinks stay on SM-X-16G4M2X.
