Description
Cisco 4GB DRAM Memory Module
Upgrade your Cisco router with a robust, high‑reliability memory solution designed for continuous operation in demanding network environments. This Cisco 4GB DRAM Memory Module bundles two 2GB ECC DIMMs to deliver a total of 4GB of fast, dependable memory. Built for routers, it combines ECC protection with a 240‑pin DIMM form factor to help your network stay responsive under heavy workloads, from sprawling routing tables to intensive logging and multi‑process tasks. Retail packaging ensures authentic components, straightforward procurement, and a reliable upgrade path for IT teams seeking to optimize network performance without compromising stability.
- Total capacity for multitasking and routing efficiency: 4 GB of memory arranged as two 2GB ECC DIMMs, enabling more concurrent sessions, larger routing tables, and smoother operation during peak traffic. This upgrade helps reduce slowdowns when multiple services and processes run on Cisco routers, improving overall network performance and responsiveness.
- ECC memory for enhanced reliability: Error‑correcting code (ECC) memory detects and corrects single‑bit errors in real time, safeguarding against data corruption and unexpected reboots. In mission‑critical network environments, ECC RAM contributes to higher uptime, fewer maintenance windows, and more predictable performance under load.
- Compatibility and form factor designed for Cisco routers: 240‑pin DIMM modules engineered for Cisco router platforms, offering a familiar SDRAM interface. The dual‑module setup supports straightforward installation in compatible devices, delivering a seamless upgrade path without extensive reconfiguration.
- Retail packaging and procurement ease: Sold in retail packaging to ensure product authenticity and easy replacement or warranty access through standard retail channels. This makes upgrading convenient for IT teams and administrators who manage device inventories and service contracts.
- Flexible upgrade benefits for enterprise networks: The 2×2GB configuration provides a balanced upgrade option that can improve memory bandwidth and system responsiveness. The arrangement supports scalable memory growth, allowing you to tailor resources to current needs while preserving headroom for future expansion.

How to install Cisco 4GB DRAM Memory Module
- Power down and disconnect: Turn off the Cisco router, unplug from the power source, and disconnect any peripheral connections before beginning the upgrade.
- Discharge static and prepare workspace: Ground yourself to prevent static electricity from damaging sensitive components. Work on a non‑conductive surface and keep the device unpowered until installation is complete.
- Access memory slots: Remove the router chassis cover or memory access panel as specified by the device’s service manual to reveal the memory slots compatible with 240‑pin DIMMs.
- Align and insert modules: Orient the ECC DIMMs so the notch aligns with the slot key and gently insert until the modules are firmly seated and the retention latches-click into place.
- Verify seating and complete reassembly: If installing two modules, repeat for the second DIMM, ensure both are securely seated, reattach the cover, reconnect power, and boot the device. Use the router’s command‑line interface or management GUI to verify that the system recognizes the new memory configuration (look for 4 GB total in memory statistics).
Frequently asked questions
- Q: Is this memory compatible with my Cisco router?
- A: This 4GB DRAM Memory Module is designed for Cisco routers and uses ECC DIMMs in a 240‑pin configuration. Check your specific router model’s hardware compatibility and Cisco documentation to confirm support for ECC DIMMs and the 2×2GB module kit before upgrading.
- Q: What is the total memory provided by this kit?
- A: The kit provides 4 GB of memory in a 2×2GB ECC DDR SDRAM configuration, suitable for increasing router capacity and improving multitasking during peak network activity.
- Q: What are the benefits of ECC memory in a router?
- A: ECC memory detects and corrects single‑bit errors, reducing the risk of data corruption and unexpected reboots. This contributes to higher reliability and uptime in networks handling critical traffic, logs, and long‑running processes.
- Q: How do I know if the upgrade was successful?
- A: After installation, access the router’s management interface or CLI and verify the detected memory size (for example, a total of 4 GB). You can also monitor system logs for memory‑related messages during startup or use diagnostic commands to confirm ECC status.
- Q: Does this kit come with a warranty?
- A: Warranty terms depend on the retailer and vendor policies. Refer to the retailer’s warranty information and the device‑specific support terms for coverage details related to memory upgrades.
