The Cisco® 880 Series Integrated Services Routers combine Internet access,
security, voice, and wireless services onto a single, secure device that is simple to
use and manage for small businesses and enterprise small branch offices and
teleworkers. The Cisco 880 Series delivers features including firewall, content filtering,
VPNs, and wireless LANs (WLANs) at broadband speeds to small offices. Easy
deployment and centralized management features enable enterprises or service
providers to deploy the Cisco 880 Series in small branch offices or small businesses.
Product Overview
Cisco 880 Series Integrated Services Routers are fixed-configuration routers that provide collaborative business
solutions for secure voice and data communication to small businesses and enterprise teleworkers. They offer
concurrent broadband services over third-generation (3G), Metro Ethernet, and multiple DSL technologies to
provide business continuity. Wireless 802.11n and 3G offer LAN and WAN mobility. The routers provide the
performance required for concurrent services, including firewall, intrusion prevention, content filtering, and
encryption for VPNs; optional 802.11g/n for mobility; and quality-of-service (QoS) features for optimizing voice and
video applications. In addition, the web-based Cisco Configuration Professional configuration tool simplifies setup
and deployment. Centralized management capabilities give network managers visibility and control of the network
configurations at the remote site.

The Cisco 880 Series is ideal for small branch offices and teleworkers who need to be connected to larger
enterprise networks as well as small businesses for either voice or data applications. These routers help extend
corporate networks to secure remote sites while giving users access to the same applications found in a corporate
office. When users require WLAN access, visibility and control of network security are even more critical at the
remote site. The Cisco 880 Series meets this need with a single device that combines integrated 802.11g/n
capabilities with security features such as Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), including authentication with IEEE
802.1x with Cisco Extensible Authentication Protocol (LEAP) and Protected EAP (PEAP) and encryption with WPA
Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP). (Refer to the wireless solution overview and security data sheet for more
information. The Cisco 880 Series models that include the integrated access point can use either autonomous or
Cisco Unified WLAN modes. In Cisco Unified WLAN mode, as part of an enterprise WLAN architecture, all WLAN
functions are centrally managed through Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers and the Cisco Wireless Control System
(WCS).
Service providers and value-added resellers can take advantage of the Cisco 880 Series to provide a true
business-class broadband service. Business customers are using broadband access to connect to the Internet or
to connect offices together, and they require a platform that incorporates voice and security without sacrificing
performance. The Cisco 881V and Cisco 887VA-V voice routers offer industry-leading voice gateway capability
with the ability to layer of Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express or SRST as required. Many of these
customers are connecting computers in offices through WLANs; having a single device for both WAN and WLAN
access provides a new option for managed services. These customers also require a higher level of support to
keep their networks operational. Services with these customers should be simple to set up, while allowing a level
of remote management and troubleshooting to quickly address support inquiries. The Cisco 880 Series meets the
requirements of small offices and managed services providers.
The Cisco 880 Series is ideally suited for deployment in a small office or in a small office that is part of a large
network, most often with a secure VPN connection. These types of offices can include the following:
●
Small remote office: The Cisco 880 Series can connect users in a small remote office, such as an
insurance, lawyer, or sales office. When connecting to the main office, VPN encryption and integrated
security such as firewall and intrusion prevention protect the network at the perimeter. The Cisco 880 with
the Cisco Unified Border Element Series can also support connection to SIP trunking voice-over-IP (VoIP)
services provided by the service provider. Additionally, IT managers can centrally manage the remote site
to quickly troubleshoot any network problems. For added reliability, customers can also use the integrated
3G or ISDN backup or connect through an external modem if the primary broadband link fails. Integrated
secure unified WLAN connectivity simplifies the deployment and management devices at the remote site.
Redundant WAN links offer business continuity, enabling nondisruptive business operation.
●
Virtual office: The Cisco 880 Series is ideal for corporate teleworkers who have a mix of broadband
connection types such as DSL, 3G, and Metro Ethernet. The Cisco 880 Voice gateway and SRST Series
provides a secure virtual office with all the collaborative services such as data, voice, and fax services.
SRST helps ensure voice services are operational in case of WAN link failure, and redundant WAN links
help ensure business continuity. QoS features in the Cisco 880 Series allow for connection of an IP or
analog phone to the router, giving voice traffic precedence over data applications. Integrated WLAN
support in the Cisco 880 Series helps ensure that if wireless connectivity is used it is secure. (Refer to the
Cisco Virtual Office Solution,
●
Remote call-center agent: Similar to teleworking applications, this solution extends the Cisco IP Contact
Center solution for telephone call-center agents to remote sites. With a high-quality, secure connection
through the Cisco 880 Series, call-center agents can be dispersed away from costly call-center facilities
while maintaining secure and productive voice and data access in their homes. SRST and businesscontinuity solutions in the Cisco 880 Series provide reliability and continuous business operation.
Alternatively, the remote call-center agent can be provided with SIP trunking service with service
demarcation provided by Cisco Unified Border Element features and the central call center can forward
calls to the remote call-center agent through the remote-office SIP trunk.
●
Retail VPN: Retail stores migrating from dialup connections for point-of-sale transactions can use the Cisco
880 Series to take advantage of low-cost broadband access with the required security to comply with
payment-card-industry (PCI) and other data security requirements. They can then add multiple devices and
applications to the store network to take advantage of the increased bandwidth and also incorporate
optional WLAN support to enable secure mobility and enhance productivity.
●
Managed services: Service providers and value-added resellers can use the Cisco 880 Series as a
platform to offer differentiated business-class security, voice, and WLAN services for small business
customers. With built-in analog and digital voice ports and the ability to upgrade to a 5 user Cisco Unified
Communications Manager Express IP PBX, service providers can now offer all the Unified communications
benefits to small and medium businesses. The SIP trunking connectivity features of the Cisco 880 with
Cisco Unified Border Element Series Router can provide the high-quality VoIP service needed through the
service provider cloud.
