This newer card provides the same basic three input and one output capability and DHEI clocking support for 64 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) as the Cisco C6920-DHEI-I/O card. In addition, the newer card supports 256 QAM clocking rates. Both cards are priced the same.

Cisco is committed to providing software support for the C6920-DHEI-I/O card in RateMUX software releases during the next two years and for hardware support for the next five years.

This newer card is supported on all systems running 2.3A RateMUX software and above.
