Product overview
The Cisco ISR C1111-8P is a converged branch router with secure WAN connectivity, an 8 port PoE+ Gigabit switch, and is intended to be used in small offices, retail locations, and remote offices. It provides business-level routing, VPN, and application visibility in a small, silent enclosure, and drives phones, access points, cameras, and sensors directly in the LAN ports to make cabling simple and eliminate clutter.
The C1111-8P is designed based on Cisco IOS XE and supports SD-WAN policy-based, enhanced security, and rich telemetry to perform proactive operations. Flexible WAN systems allow the use of copper or fiber or optional cellular as a primary or secondary link and built-in hardware crypto engines ensure that IPsec VPNs are also responsive under load.
