Network Equipment Building System (NEBS)

Network Equipment Building System (NEBS)

The Cisco 7200 Series Routers adhere to the following NEBS GR-1089-Core requirements:

To comply with GR-1089-Core Intra-building Lighting requirements, all 10Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps copper Ethernet interfaces shall be connected with shielded cable with the shield grounded at each end of the cable.

To comply with GR-1089-Core grounding requirements, all Cisco 7200 Series Routers are provided with a provision to attach a two-hole ground lug that accepts a #6 AWG conductor. Refer to the specific router hardware installation and configuration guide for details of the grounding provision.

To comply with GR-1089-Core Bonding and Grounding documentation requirements, all Cisco 7200 Series Routers use the DC-I (DC-isolated) grounding architecture. The DC input return and frame ground are isolated from one another.

Grounding connectors shall be NRTL Listed.

The Cisco 7200 Series Routers can be installed in network telecommunications facilities.

The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly is suitable for connection to intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly must not be metallically connected to interfaces which connect to the OSP or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE, Issue 4) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of primary protectors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.

The Cisco 7200 Series Routers have AC power ports that are intended for deployments where an external Surge Protective Device (SPD) is utilized at the AC power service equipment (see definition in National Electric Code).

The Cisco 7200 Series Routers are designed for a Common Bonding Network (CBN) installation.

7202, 7204 VXR, 7200 Series, 7206 VXR specifications

Cisco Systems has been at the forefront of networking technology, and the Cisco 7200 Series, particularly the 7206 VXR, 7202, and 7204 VXR models, exemplify the company’s commitment to delivering robust, scalable, and versatile routing solutions. Designed for both service providers and enterprise environments, these routers are ideal for deployment in medium to large-sized networks that require high performance and reliability.

The 7200 Series routers are built on a flexible architecture that supports various interfaces and protocols. One of the standout features of the 7206 VXR is its modular design, allowing users to customize their devices to meet specific network needs. This modular architecture supports various high-speed WAN interfaces, including Serial, ATM, T1/E1, and Fast Ethernet, making the 7206 VXR a versatile choice for connecting diverse network segments.

The 7200 Series is equipped with Cisco's advanced IOS software, which underpins its reliability and performance. The IOS software provides a comprehensive suite of features such as advanced routing protocols, security mechanisms, quality of service (QoS) controls, and extensive network management capabilities. This makes it possible for organizations to implement complex networking strategies while ensuring optimal performance.

Security features are also a critical aspect of the 7200 Series. With support for integrated firewalls, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), and Network Address Translation (NAT), these routers help safeguard sensitive data during transmission. The availability of advanced encryption standards ensures data integrity and confidentiality, further enhancing network security.

Another important characteristic of the Cisco 7200 Series is its scalability. The 7206 VXR can handle significant amounts of traffic and can be upgraded as network demands grow, thanks to its ability to support different line cards. This scalability is crucial for organizations looking to future-proof their investments while maintaining efficiency.

In summary, the Cisco 7200 Series, featuring models like the 7206 VXR, 7202, and 7204 VXR, remains a powerful choice for organizations seeking reliable and flexible routing solutions. With its modular design, extensive features, scalability, and robust security options, it meets the demands of modern networking environments, making it a cornerstone for many enterprise and service provider networks.
