Cisco 3800 Series Integrated Services Routers
Cisco 3825 and Cisco 3845
Cisco redefines branch-office routing with a portfolio of integrated services routers optimized for secure, wire-speed
delivery of concurrent data, voice, video, and wireless services. Founded on 20 years of innovation, the Cisco
®
3800
Series Integrated Services Routers offer exceptional network agility, performance, and intelligence. These routers
transparently integrate advanced technologies, adaptive services, and secure enterprise communications into a
single, resilient system. They ease deployment and management, lower network cost and complexity, and provide
excellent investment protection (Figure 1).
The Cisco 3800 Series Routers feature embedded security processing, generous performance, high memory
capacity, and high-density interfaces that deliver the performance, availability, and reliability required for scaling
mission-critical security, IP telephony, business video, network analysis, and web applications in the most
demanding enterprise environments. Built for performance, these routers deliver multiple concurrent services up to
wire-speed T3/E3 rates.

Product Overview
The integrated services routing architecture of the Cisco 3800 Series is designed to embed and integrate security
and voice processing with advanced wired and wireless services for rapid deployment of new applications, including
application layer functions, intelligent network services, and converged communications. These routers support the
bandwidth requirements for multiple Fast Ethernet interfaces per slot, time-division multiplexing (TDM)
interconnections, and fully integrated power distribution to modules supporting 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE).
And at the same time they still support the existing portfolio of modular interfaces, thereby ensuring continued
investment protection to accommodate network expansion or changes in technology as new services and
applications are deployed. Uninterrupted business operations and business continuity is supported with WAN link
redundancy, On-line Insertion and Removal (OIR) and redundant power supply configurations. By integrating the
functions of multiple separate devices into a single compact unit, the Cisco 3800 Series Routers dramatically reduce
the cost and complexity of managing remote networks.
