on 252x routers, you have 2 "high speed" serial interfaces, and 2 "low
speed" serial interfaces.  High speed usually means that it can goto 4Mbps
I believe.  Cisco usually denotes a modular high speed interface with "T",
as in like a NP-2T, or a NM-4T.  Low speed usually means that it can goto
64kps.  Low speed interfaces are denoted with an "S", like CSC-4S on a
AGS+ is 4 low speed ports.

Don't fret though, in a home lab this is fine usually.  Even 4 low speed
interfaces would allow you to do everything.
