Wireless Mobile Interface Cards
The Cisco Wireless Mobile Interface Card (WMIC) is a Cisco 3200 Series router interface card in a
standard PC/104-Plus form factor.
It is one component of the Cisco 3200 Series routers and provides a wireless interface with the
following:
• 2.4 GHz (802.11b/g) – Cisco 3201
• 4.9 GHz (public safety) – Cisco 3202
• 5.0 GHz (802.11h) – Cisco 3205
Caution The 4.9 GHz (public safety) radio requires an operators license and can be operated only by US Public
Safety operators who meet the requirements specified under FCC Part 90.20.
This chapter provides basic information about the WMIC hardware for performing simple
troubleshooting, such as reconnecting a loose cable. To solve more difficult problems, contact your
vendor.
WMIC Component Systems
The ISA buses and PCI buses on the Cisco 3200 Series router cards provide power to the components on
the cards. The WMIC does not receive or transmit communications signals on either bus, but it will pass
signals through the bus to a card above or below the WMIC. Both buses comply with the PC/104-Plus
standard.
The PCI bus signals allow the Cisco cards to communicate. Non-Cisco cards cannot communicate with
the Cisco
3200 Series Router cards over the PCI bus.
Caution If you add non-Cisco cards that generates signals on the PCI bus, the router might shut down. Do not
add non-Cisco cards that generate signals on the PCI bus.
