Cisco 1700 Series
The Cisco 1700 Series of modular access routers is designed to provide a cost-
effective, integrated routing platform for small and medium-sized businesses and
enterprise small branch offices, ensuring new services can be deployed efficiently as
needs change. These routers provide flexibility and manageability through modular
design to meet demanding and evolving requirements, such as comprehensive security,
multiservice data/voice/video/fax integration, and business-class DSL support.
Flexibility and Investment Protection
The modularity of the Cisco 1700 Series allows
it to easily adapt to evolving needs.
Interchangeable 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 2600, 3600, and 3700 series routers.
Comprehensive Security
To k eep networks secure and protect sensitive
information, businesses deploy a range of
security technologies, including firewall, VPN,
and IDS. Cisco 1700 Series routers provide
stateful inspection firewall, wire speed VPN with
hardware encryption module, and intrusion
detection capabilities. As new security
technologies are developed, they may simply be
uploaded.
Business-Class DSL Connectivity
The new WIC-1ADSL and WIC-1SHDSL offer
business-class broadband service with scalable
performance, flexibility, and security for branch
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 Cisco 1751 and 1760 offer a
cost-effective way to extend converged
multiservice data/voice networking to branch
offices. They work with existing phones 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.
