2Overview

The Cisco 1800 series integrated services routers includes the Cisco 1841 router, which is a data-only router. Cisco 1841 routers support WAN interface cards (WIC), voice/WAN interface cards (VWICs) in data mode only, single-wide high-speed WAN interface cards (HWICs), and advanced integration module (AIMs). This router has two WIC/VWIC/HWIC slots.

Note The interface numbering for this Cisco 1841 router is different from the numbering in Cisco 1700 series routers. (See the “Interface Numbering” section on page 17.)

Cisco Product Identification Tool

The Cisco Product Identification (CPI) tool provides detailed illustrations and descriptions showing where to locate serial number labels on Cisco products. It includes the following features:

•A search option that allows browsing for models using a tree-structured product hierarchy

•A search field on the final results page making it easier to look up multiple products

•End of sale products are clearly identified in results lists

The tool streamlines the process of locating serial number labels and identifying products. Serial number information expedites the entitlement process and is important for access to support services.
