Cisco 1700 Series

The Cisco 1700 Series of modular access routers is designed to provide a cost- effective, integrated platform for small and midsize businesses and small branch offices, ensuring they can efficiently roll out new services as needs change. These routers provide flexibility and manageability to meet demanding and evolving requirements, such as multiservice data/voice/video/fax integration, business-class digital subscriber line (DSL) support, and comprehensive security.

Benefits and Advantages

Flexibility and Investment Protection

Business-Class DSL Connectivity

The modularity of the Cisco 1700 Series allows it to easily adapt to evolving needs. WAN interface cards (WICs) and voice interface cards (VICs) enable easy additions or changes, without requiring a forklift upgrade of an entire platform.The wide range of available WIC solutions supports WAN technologies such as broadband DSL, ISDN, leased lines, and Frame Relay, while VIC solutions can support Voice over IP and Voice over Frame Relay.These modules are shared with Cisco 1600, 2600, 3600, and 3700 series routers.

Comprehensive Security

To keep networks secure and protect sensitive information, businesses deploy a range of security technologies, including firewalls, VPNs, and IDSs. Cisco IOS® Software is the industry’s widely accepted standard for the Internet and private network operations. Cisco 1700 Series routers provide powerful firewall, VPN, and intrusion detection capabilities. As new security technologies are developed, they often can be simply uploaded—there’s no need for costly hardware replacements.

The new WIC-ADSL and WIC-1SHDSL offer business-class broadband service with scalable performance, flexibility, and security for branch and regional offices.The Cisco 1700 Series provides the perfect solution for a variety of businesses requiring high-speed business-class DSL connectivity on a secure, high- performance, modular platform.

Multiservice Data/Voice/

Video/Fax Integration

In addition to supporting the same security and business-class DSL features as the entire Cisco 1700 Series, the Cisco1751 and 1760 offer a cost- effective way to extend converged multiservice networking to branch offices.They work with with existing phones, faxes, and other equipment, simplifying deployment of IP telephony. Service integration using IP protocols over the Internet enables administrators to reduce long-distance toll charges between offices, and support voice-enabled desktop applications such as integrated messaging and packet video.
