Chapter 1 Product Overview

Product Description

The Cisco uBR7100 series router is a cost-effective solution for cable operators, Internet service providers, multiple tenant units (MTUs), and multiple dwelling unit (MDU) operators such as hotels, hospitals, and dormitories. The router contains a combination of fixed and modular RF, LAN, and WAN interfaces, which simplifies operation while still providing a system that is flexible enough to meet different customers’ needs. The Cisco uBR7100 series chassis includes an integrated upconverter and embedded dual 10/100BASE-T Ethernet interface.

Cisco uBR7100 Series Models

The Cisco uBR7100 series router has two models.

Cisco uBR7111 and Cisco uBR7111E

The Cisco uBR7111 and Cisco uBR7111E universal broadband routers provide the following fixed interfaces:

•A LAN interface with two Ethernet/FastEthernet ports

•A cable interface with one downstream port and one upstream port. The downstream port can be output either as an RF signal through the integrated upconverter or as an IF signal for processing by an external upconverter.

•A modular single-width port adapter for flexibility in WAN interface connections.

The Cisco uBR7111 router supports DOCSIS cable plants, and the Cisco uBR7111E supports

EuroDOCSIS cable plants.

Cisco uBR7114 and Cisco uBR7114E

The Cisco uBR7114 and Cisco uBR7114E universal broadband routers provide the following fixed interfaces:

•A LAN interface with two Ethernet/FastEthernet ports

•A cable interface with one downstream port and four upstream ports. The downstream port can be output either as an RF signal through the integrated upconverter or as an IF signal for processing by an external upconverter.

•A modular single-width port adapter allows flexibility in WAN interface connections.

The Cisco uBR7114 router supports DOCSIS cable plants, and the Cisco uBR7114E supports

EuroDOCSIS cable plants.
