FastEthernet for a 2600

I have a 2600 series router that only has one FastEthernet port. I need to add another one somehow but I can't seem to find a part number. Does anyone know what it is??

Thanks,

You could use a NM-1e. The fast E modules are not supported in 2600s. (except for a 16 port switch NM-16ESW) - except for 2691.

Even wic-1enet is not supported by 2600s.

Thanks for the fast response. I did a little more research on Cisco's website and from what I'm reading, I think the NM-1FE-TX would work. I saw this on

Am I reading this incorrectly??

If you look at table 2, "Physical limitation of serial modules per chassis" the first line shows an N/A for NM-1FE-TX on the 2600 and 2600XM. The only module supported is NM-1FE-SMF (optical module) and that is only the 2691.
