Cisco 850 Series

The Cisco 850 Series of secure broadband and wireless routers is part of the
Cisco Integrated Services Router portfolio. Designed for small offices, the routers
provide secure WAN connectivity with optional integrated 802.11b/g WLANs in a

managers and service providers to better support remote sites.
Benefits and Advantages
Integrated Services
Cisco 850 Series Integrated Services Routers are
fixed-configuration routers that support broadband
cable and Asymmetric DSL (ADSL) over analog
telephone line connections in small offices . They
provide the performance needed to run concurrent
services, including firewall and encryption for
VPNs . An optional 802 . 1 1b/g wireless option offers
a secure broadband router and wireless access
point for WLANs in a single device . The stateful
inspection firewall and IPsec VPN support provide
secure access when connecting to the Internet
or connecting small offices to a central site . High-
speed LAN ports connect multiple devices to the
small office network .
Easy Setup and Deployment
The Cisco Router and Security Device Manager
(SDM) Web-based configuration tool simplifies
setup and deployment, and centralized
management capabilities give network managers
visibility and control of router configurations at
the remote site . Cisco Configuration Express
Service supports factory-loaded configurations
in high-volume deployments . Support for the
Cisco Configuration Engine enables plug-and-
play installations with centralized configuration
management .
Remote Management
Cisco 850 Series routers are ideally suited for small
office and remote office deployments . Out-of-
band management with an external modem
through the auxiliary port allows IT managers to
remotely manage routers at small office sites to
quickly troubleshoot any network issues . Optional
integrated secure WLAN connectivity simplifies
the number of devices that need to be managed
at the remote site . Cisco SDM helps resellers and
customers to quickly and easily deploy, configure,
and monitor a Cisco access router without
knowledge of the Cisco IOS Software Command-
Line Interface (CLI) .
