Benefits Description
Energy efficiency
Investment protection ● The Cisco 1921 maximizes investment protection by supporting:
The Cisco 1921 architecture provides energy-savings features that include the following:
The Cisco 1900 Series offers intelligent power management and allows you to control power to the modules based on the time of day. Cisco EnergyWise technology will be supported in the future.
Services integration and modularity on a single platform performing multiple functions optimizes raw-materials consumption and energy usage.
Platform flexibility and ongoing development of both hardware and software capabilities lead to a longer product lifecycle, lowering all aspects of the TCO, including materials and energy use.
High-efficiency power supplies are provided with each platform.
Reuse of a broad array of existing modules supported on the original integrated services routers (ISRs) provides a lower TCO.
A rich set of Cisco IOS Software features is carried forward from the original ISRs and delivered in the universal image.
This router gives you the flexibility to grow as your business needs evolve.
Architecture and Modularity
The Cisco 1921 is architected to meet the application demands of today’s branch offices with design flexibility for future applications. The modular architecture is designed to support expanding customer requirements, increased bandwidth, and fully integrated power distribution to modules supporting 802.3af PoE and Cisco Enhanced PoE (ePoE). Table 2 lists the architectural features and benefits of the Cisco 1921.
Table 2. Architectural Features and Benefits
Architectural Feature Benefits
Modular platform
Processors
Embedded IP Security/Secure Sockets Layer (IPsec/SSL) VPN hardware acceleration
Integrated Gigabit Ethernet ports
Innovative universal­serial-bus (USB)-based console access
Optional external power supply for distribution of PoE
The Cisco 1921 ISRs are highly modular platforms with multiple module slots to provide connectivity and services for varied branch-office network requirements.
The ISRs offer an industry-leading breadth of LAN and WAN connectivity options through modules to accommodate field upgrades to future technologies without requiring replacement of the platform.
The Cisco 1921 is powered by high-performance multicore processors that support growing demands of branch-office networks by supporting high-throughput WAN requirements.
Embedded hardware encryption acceleration is enhanced to provide higher scalability, which, combined with an optional Cisco IOS Security license, enables WAN link security and VPN services (Both IPSec and SSL acceleration).
The onboard encryption hardware out-performs the advanced integration modules of previous generations.
All onboard WAN ports are 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet WAN-routed ports.
A new, innovative, mini-Type B USB console port supports management connectivity when traditional serial ports are not available.
The traditional console and auxiliary ports are also available. You can use either the USB-based console or the RJ­45-based console port to configure the router.
An optional upgrade to the power supply provides inline power (802.3af-compliant PoE and Cisco Standard Inline Power to optional integrated switch modules.
Modularity Features and Benefits
The Cisco 1921 provides significantly enhanced modular capabilities (refer to Table 3) that offer you investment protection. Most of the modules available on previous generations of Cisco routers, such as the Cisco 1841 ISR, are supported on the Cisco 1921. Additionally, you can easily interchange modules used on the Cisco 1921 with other Cisco routers to provide maximum investment protection. Taking advantage of common interface cards across a network greatly reduces the complexity of managing inventory requirements, implementing large network rollouts, and maintaining configurations across a variety of branch-office sizes.

Mobility Services
Wireless WAN
Cisco 3G wireless WAN (WWAN) modules combine traditional enterprise router functions such as remote management, advanced IP services such as voice over IP (VoIP), and security, with mobility capabilities of 3G WAN access. Using high-speed 3G wireless networks, routers can replace or complement existing landline infrastructure, such as dialup, Frame Relay, and ISDN. Cisco 3G solutions support 3G standards High-Speed Packet Access (HSPA) and Evolution Data Only/Evolution Data Optimized (EVDO), offering you a true multipath WAN backup and the ability to rapidly deploy primary WAN connectivity. For more information about 3G solutions on Cisco Integrated Services Routers, please visit
Integrated LAN Switching
The Cisco 1921 Integrated Services Router will support the EHWIC LAN modules when they become available in the future. The Cisco 1921 supports the existing singlewide Cisco EtherSwitch® HWIC and the doublewide HWIC-D modules, which greatly expand the capabilities of the router by integrating industry-leading Layer 2 switching.
Managing Your Integrated Services Routers
Network management applications are instrumental in lowering operating expenditures (OpEx) while improving network availability by simplifying and automating many of the day-to-day tasks associated with managing an end-to­end network. “Day-one device support” provides immediate manageability support for the ISR, enabling quick and easy deployment, monitoring, and troubleshooting from Cisco and third-party applications.
Organizations rely on Cisco, third-party, and in-house developed network management applications to achieve their OpEx and productivity goals. Underpinning those applications are the embedded management features available in every ISR. The new ISRs continue a tradition of broad and deep manageability features within the devices. Features such as Cisco IOS IP Service-Level Agreements (IP SLAs), Cisco IOS Embedded Event Manager (EEM), and NetFlow allow you to know what is going on in your network at all times. These features along with Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and syslog support enable your organization’s management applications.
