I have looked at the cisco web site and cannot locate any information on this
4 port smart-serial port . With that said and not having any information to go on, I would say NO .
Now it looks like you can install a dual wan interface card. This would give you a total of 4 ports . Heres some information from ,
Dual Port Serial WAN Interface Cards, WIC-2T and WIC-2A/S
Figure 18-170: WIC-2T
Figure 18-171: WIC-2A/S
The dual serial port WIC-2T and WIC-2A/S provide higher levels of serial port density for a single WAN interface card and are supported on the Cisco 2600 and
1720 series. The WIC-2T supports speeds of up to a maximum port speed of 2.048 Mbps. The low serial speed WIC-2A/S supports up to 128Kbps synchronous
or 115.2 Kbps asynchronous serial links. Each port can be configured independent of the other allowing support for different physical interfaces (protocol and
DTE/DCE). Both cards support mixed asynchronous and synchronous operation on a single card as well.
These dual-serial port WAN interface cards feature Cisco`s new, compact, Smart Serial connectors to support a wide variety of electrical interfaces when used with
the appropriate transition cable. This includes: V.35, RS-232, RS-449, RS-530, RS-530A in male and female versions for both DCE and DTE devices. This
feature provides easy configuration and re-configuration as network requirements change without the need of purchasing a different serial interface card.
Two cables are required to support the two ports on the WIC.
