Detailed Specifications
HPE JG736A MSR Series Enhanced Serial SIC Module
Overview
The HPE JG736A is a Smart Interface Card (SIC) module intended for inclusion in HPE MSR series routers, designed for network engineers managing branch or remote-site WAN connectivity. It provides two ports of enhanced synchronous/asynchronous serial communication, allowing the router to support legacy serial circuits, telecom-grade links or out-of-band management channels. The module fits directly into the licensing/slot architecture of supported MSR routers, sharing chassis power and cooling. It is suitable for wiring-closet or remote-branch environments where serial WAN links remain necessary, or for connecting to legacy telecom interfaces.
Key Features
2 serial ports supporting enhanced synchronous/asynchronous operation
Plug-in SIC form-factor for HPE MSR routers
Enables legacy serial WAN connectivity without separate router hardware
Fully managed via router firmware and system software
Compatible with HPE's branch-router ecosystem for unified management
