The Pluggable Module provides the flexibility of adding different interfaces to the IR1101 platform, for example, a cellular module.

Important

The Pluggable Module is not hot swappable. The router must be reloaded after a new module is installed.

Highlights of the Cellular Pluggable Module are:

• All Cellular interfaces are supported through a Pluggable Module

• Micro-Sim, 3FF size. Cisco recommends Industrial Temp micro SIMs that are rated from -40C to +105C

• To ensure a reliable contact to the SIM socket, gold plated SIM cards must be used

Note	Complete details on the Cellular Pluggable Module are found in the Cellular Pluggable Interface Module Configuration Guide.

The following figure shows an example of a Pluggable Module. In this case, the LTE Pluggable Module.

This module has a new smaller form factor SMA Diversity Antenna for usability and Micro-USB port access.

Note	The P-LTEAP18-G pluggable module must be installed in the IR1101 Base. It cannot be used in the IRM-1100 Expansion Module.

P-LTEAP18-GL Frequency Bands

The following table provides the global frequency bands available.

Note	Antennas must be attached to the RF connectors as listed below for proper bands service.

The 5G Sub-6 GHz Pluggable Interface Modules offer 5G capability to the IoT Industrial Router family. The product IDs for the pluggable modules are P-5GS6-GL and P-5GS6-R16SA. The P-5GS6-GL uses the FN980 Telit modem, and P-5GS6-R16SA uses the EM9293 modem.

Note	IOS XE release 17.7.1 is the first software release to provide support for the P-5GS6-GL. IOS XE release 17.15.1a is the first software release to provide support for the P-5GS6-R16SA.

The P-LTE-450 is a 450MHz Category-4 LTE PIM, which addresses LTE use cases primarily targeting utility, public safety, and critical infrastructure maintained by public organizations in Europe and other world regions. The module supports only Band 31 and 72 for LTE 450MHz networks.

Note	Throughout the user documentation, you will see the module referred to as P-LTE-450, which is the Cisco product name. The module is designed and manufactured by Intelliport, which refers to it as the IPS-701. Both names will be present in documentation.

Unlike regular LTE modules, there are some differences with regards to the P-LTE-450MHz on IOS-XE platform. Some of the key differences are:

• IP pass through will be on Gigabit Ethernet interfaces rather than cellular interface

• Troubleshooting commands are from web interface of third-party hardware

See the Cellular Pluggable Interface Module Configuration Guide for complete details.

For additional information, see the LTE 450MHz Alliance.

Mini-SATA, or mSATA, is a low-profile interface connector that enables more effective Serial ATA (SATA) integration in small form-factor drives roughly the size of a business card, such as solid state disks (SSDs). The mSATA Pluggable Module plugs into the IR-1100-SPMI Expansion Module. The following figure shows the mSATA Pluggable Module.

Highlights of the mSATA Pluggable Module are:

• Provides an additional 100GB of additional flash memory storage

• Main purpose is to provide space to store application data for IOx

• Field Replaceable unit, but is not hot-swappable

The Ethernet and Optical SFP modules provide connections to other devices. These field-replaceable transceiver modules provide the uplink interfaces. The Ethernet and Optical modules can be either copper or optical. Details are in the two tables listed below.

The Local Connectors (LCs) provide the fiber-optic connection. RJ-45 connectors allow copper connections. You can use any combination of the supported SFP modules listed in the table that follows.

Note	The IR1101 is designed to operate in the Industrial temperature range (-40C to +85C internal component temperature range) and therefore cannot support commercial rated SFPs.

For the most up-to-date list of supported SFP models for Cisco Industrial Devices, see the Cisco Optics-to-Device Compatibility Matrix.

This section provides an example of installing and removing the DSL SFP module.

Attention

Prior to installing the DSL SFP Module, please note the following statements:

1. Follow all of warning notices and instructions marked on the product or in the user manual.

2. Do not install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

3. The device should be installed by a service/skilled person on stationary pluggable equipment and connected to a socked-outlet with a protective earthing conductor to building earth.

4. External paired conductor cable should be minimum wire diameter of 0.4 mm, shall have the current limited to 1.3 A.

5. Please disconnect RJ45/RJ11 line before disconnect the power supply.
