As far as I know, all multi-port serial interfaces can do this - that
means usually for a n-port interface you have n x 2Mbit/s available. If
you use only two ports on a 4-port interface, each can go to 4 Mbit, if
you use only one, you gan go up to 8 Mbit/s.

(For a FSIP, it's only n x 1.5 Mbit/s., though :) ).
