1GEC (1-Port-GE Combo WAN Interface Card)
Card Overview
1GEC is a GE high-speed WAN access module and a combo interface that can function as the GE electrical or optical interface. You can flexibly select the interface to connect to a WAN.
A 1GEC card can be installed in a SIC slot of a router.
Figure 7-51 shows the appearance of a 1GEC card.

GE combo interface
- The GE electrical interface (10/100/1000 Mbit/s auto-sensing) transmits and receives services at 10 Mbit/s, 100 Mbit/s, or 1000 Mbit/s. It must be used with an Ethernet Cable.
- The GE optical interface (100/1000 Mbit/s auto-sensing) transmits and receives services at 100 Mbit/s or 1000 Mbit/s. It must be used with the fiber and optical module. The following optical modules are supported:
A combo interface works in auto mode and automatically works as an optical or electrical interface by default.
