Features/description |
Lightweight, compact size with low power consumption |
- ● Can be deployed in many different environments where space, heat dissipation, and low power consumption are critical factors.
|
High performance to run concurrent services |
- ● High performance allows customers to take advantage of broadband network speeds while running secure, concurrent data, voice, video, and wireless services.
|
High availability and business continuity |
- ● Redundant WAN connections for failover protection and load balancing.
- ● Dynamic failover protocols such as Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP; RFC 2338), Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP), and Multigroup HSRP (MHSRP).
|
Consistent, high application performance levels |
- ● The router can run multiple services simultaneously with minimal performance degradation.
|
Risk mitigation with multilevel security |
- ● Network perimeter security with integrated application inspection firewall.
- ● Data privacy through high-speed IP Security (IPsec) Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES), and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption.
- ● High-performance VPNs: DMVPN, FlexVPN, GET VPN, EzVPN
- ● Cisco Umbrella™ security architecture to provide content filtering via category-based URL classification and blocking, thus helping increase productivity and providing better use of company resources.
- ● Enforced security policy with OpenDNS.
- ● Security hardware acceleration.
- ● Trustworthy systems with Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and hardware anchor.
- ● Encrypted traffic analytics maintain integrity of encrypted flow
|
Unified control of wired and wireless networks from a common console for streamlined operations |
- ● Simplifies and centralizes configuration and management of wireless and wireline devices. Supports WLAN services without requiring a wireless LAN controller.
- ● Supports Mobility Express for WLAN-enabled routers.
|
Remote configuration and management to keep local IT staff lean |
- ● Supports separate console/auxiliary and USB ports.
- ● Can be configured to work with optional USB token.
- ● Supports TR-069.

- ● Service reliability
|
- ● Crypto performance up to 250 Mbps for 1100-8P and 150 Mbps for 1100-4P.
- ● A distributed multicore architecture with the industry’s first internal services plane.
- ● Remote installation of application-aware services that run identically to their counterparts in dedicated appliances.
|
Lower WAN expenditures |
- ● Cisco Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) (over the Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller Enterprise Module [APIC-EM]) support for optimized WAN connection.
|
Pay as you grow: IPsec performance upgrade model |
- ● Router IPsec capacity can be increased with a remote performance-on-demand license upgrade (no hardware upgrade) for exceptional savings andCapEx budget management.
|
IT consolidation, space savings, and improved Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) |
- ● Single converged branch platform integrates routing, switching, security, and performance management capabilities.
|
Business continuity and increased resiliency |
- ● The entire 1100 Series supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) and PoE+ power to endpoints.
