Cisco 2600 Series

BENEFITS AND ADVANTAGES continued

Cisco 2600 Series

SECURITY FEATURES EXAMPLE

Cisco IOS software, Cisco offers the industry’s most robust and adaptable security solution for branch office routers.The optional VPN modules support 3DES, AES, and hardware- based compression. Additionally, the new Cisco Intrusion Detection System (IDS) network module allows traffic inspection at the first point of entry into the network while freeing the router CPU from processor-intensive IDS tasks.

Multiservice Voice/Data Networks

Supports up to 90 simultaneous calls, using analog and digital connections to phones, faxes, key systems, PBXs, and PSTN switches, for Cisco IP telephony networks. Delivers

IP telephony enriching features including Survivable Remote SiteTelephony (SRST), Cisco CallManager Express (CCME) for localized call processing, Cisco UnityExpress (CUE) for voice-mail, audioconferencing and transcoding capabilities. Using Cisco IOS quality-of-service (QoS) features, such as LLQ, CB-WFQ, WRED, CAR, RSVP, and Custom and Priority Queuing, voice traffic is digitized and encapsulated in IP

packet, Frame Relay, or ATM and consolidated with data to extend multiservice infrastructure to the branch office.

Business-class DSL Connectivity

The WIC-1ADSL, WIC-1ADSL-DG, WIC-1ADSL- I-DG, WIC-1SHDSL, and WIC-1SHDSL-V2 offer business-class broadband service with scalable performance, flexibility, quality of service, and security for branch and regional offices.The Cisco 2600 Series provides the perfect solution for a variety of businesses requiring high-speed business-class DSL connectivity on a secure, high-performance, modular platform.

Cisco Systems is a key player in the networking and communications industry, and its wide range of routers is a testament to its innovation and reliability. Among the most prominent models are the 7400, 7200, and 7300 Series routers, each with distinct features, technologies, and strengths that cater to diverse performance needs.

The Cisco 7400 Series router is designed for service providers seeking high performance and scalability in their core and edge networks. It supports up to 1.2 Terabits per second of throughput, making it well-suited for handling large volumes of data traffic. One of its hallmark features is the support for advanced service chaining, allowing operators to deploy a mix of virtual and physical functions seamlessly. Additionally, the router supports redundant power supplies and fans, ensuring high availability and reliability. The 7400 Series is also equipped with advanced security features including integrated threat intelligence capabilities, which help protect against cyber threats while maintaining the quality of service.

Next, the 7200 Series is well-known for its versatility in both enterprise and service provider environments. It supports a variety of WAN interfaces and is capable of handling multiple protocols, including IP, Frame Relay, and ATM. This router provides modularity, allowing users to tailor the hardware configuration to their specific needs with interchangeable interface cards. The 7200 Series is optimized for voice and data convergence, making it ideal for businesses that require robust support for unified communications. Additionally, it features enhanced security options, including Cisco IOS Firewall and IPS services to safeguard data integrity.

Finally, the Cisco 7300 Series router excels in providing high-performance routing for enterprises and service providers, particularly in edge routing scenarios. It offers a balance between performance and cost, with a processing capability that meets the demands of growing bandwidth needs. The 7300 Series supports various interfaces for both synchronous and asynchronous communication, making it a flexible choice for integrated network environments. It is designed to support IPv6, which is increasingly important for modern networking as organizations transition towards next-generation Internet architectures.

In summary, Cisco's 7400, 7200, and 7300 Series routers are built to meet the needs of a range of users, from large-scale service providers to medium-sized businesses.
