Cisco 1000 Series Integrated Services Routers
Cisco® 1100 Series Integrated Services Routers (ISRs) with Cisco IOS® XE
Software combine Internet access, comprehensive security, and wireless services
(LTE Advanced 3.0 wireless WAN and 802.11ac wireless LAN) in a single, highperformance device. The routers are easy to deploy and manage, with cutting-edge,
scalable, multicore separate data and control plane capabilities.
The Cisco 1100 Series ISRs are well suited for deployment as Customer Premises
Equipment (CPE) in enterprise branch offices, in service provider managed
environments as well as smaller form factor.
Note: Not all 1100 series SKU variants are available in every region with different
technologies (check on CCW pricelist for your region).
