The Cisco 812 ISR provides two standard p anel-mount TNC connectors to support 3G. Th e main antenna
is used for the primary 3G antenna. The second can be used as a diversity recei v e only 3G antenna or an
amplified GPS antenna. See Figure 1-2 for the location of the antennas.
WiFi Embedded Antenna
The Cisco 812 ISR supports Dual ports WiFi radios (802.11 a/b/g/n) with embedded 2x3 MIMO.
For compliance and safety information, see the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the
Cisco 800 Series and SOHO Series Routers.
The Cisco 812 ISR has two LEDs located on the top side of the router. The 3G LED is located on the
lower right side with respect to the Cisco logo. 3G LED supports multip le functions and colors. The W iFi
LED is located on lower left sid e with respect to the Cisco logo. Table 1-1 describes the 3G LED for the

The Cisco 812 ISR supports 512 MB DRAM and 512 MB compact flash memory. The Host router
software runs on the first core. The second core runs the WLAN Access Point software.
If WLAN is not supported in an SKU, all 512 MB DRAM memory is allocated to the first core. For the
SKUs that support WLAN, 128 MB out of the 512 MB main memory is allocated to the second core.
If WLAN is not supported in an SKU, all 512 MB DRAM compact flash memory is allocated to the first
core. For the SKUs that support WLAN, 64 MB out of the 512 MB main memory is allocated to the
second core.
General warning.
Power Supply
The following are power adapters supported in the Cisco 812 ISR:
• AC Power Adapter, page 1-8
• PoE+ Splitter, page 1-8
AC Power Adapter
The default configuration is AC adapter that supports up to 4 A of 5 VDC current. The supported AC
power adapter is PWR2-20W-AC that has a nominal input voltage of 100 to 240 VAC.
PoE+ Splitter
The Cisco PoE+ splitter (C810-POE-SPL) splits PoE+ into power and GE. It has connectors built into
the power supply at both input and output so cables can be used at desired length as an option. Figure 1-4
shows the I/O side of the PoE+ splitter.
