Interoperability
The 2- and 4-pair G.SHDSL HWICs are based on the Infineon chipset, and they operate when
connected to a DSLAM. Table 3 lists the DSLAMs that have been tested and will be supported for
interoperability. This table will be updated as more DSLAMs, line cards, and firmware versions are
tested and supported in the future.
Table 4 lists DSLAM interoperability information for the G.SHDSL HWICs.

Software Requirements
The minimum Cisco IOS Software Release required for the G.SHDSL HWICs (HWIC-2SHDSL and
HWIC-4SHDSL) on the Cisco 1841, 2800, and 3800 Series Routers is Cisco IOS Software
Release 12.4(11)XJ as indicated in Table 7. The recommended T-train Cisco IOS Software
Release is 12.4(6th)T (expected in the first half of calendar year 2007). The 2- and 4-pair
G.SHDSL HWICs are supported in all Cisco IOS Software feature sets.
Table 7 gives the minimum Cisco IOS Software release.
