This guide explains how to install, connect, and perform initial configurations for the Cisco 2900 series
and Cisco 3900 series Integrated Services Routers (ISRs). Some information may not apply to your
specific router model.
NoteFor warranty, service, and support information, see the “Cisco Warranty Terms” section in the
Readme First for the Cisco 1900 Series, 2900 Series, and 3900 Series Integrated Services
Routers document that was shipped with your router.
This guide is intended for Cisco equipment providers and service persons who are technically
knowledgeable and familiar with Cisco routers and Cisco IOS software and features. They would
understand how to install, configure, and maintain the router, and they should be familiar with electronic
circuitry and wiring practices, and have experience as an electronic or electromechanical technician.
This guide identifies certain procedures that should be performed only by trained and qualified
personnel.

Overview of the Routers
Cisco Integrated Services Routers Generation 2 (ISR G2) offer data functionality through Gigabit
Ethernet ports and security functionality with a virtual private network (VPN) accelerator on the
motherboard. Additional security features are available with add-on hardware and software.
Cisco 2900 series and Cisco 3900 series routers also provide voice IP telephony with digital signal
processor (DSP) capability; and voice gateway, DSP farm, IP-to-IP gateway, Cisco Unified
Communications Manager Express (CUCME) via Cisco IOS. Cisco Unity Express (CUE) is provided
through the use of add-on hardware.
This series of ISRs have new slots that support next generation Enhanced High-Speed WAN Interface
Cards (EHWICs), Internal Services Modules (ISMs), Packet Voice Data Modules (PVDM3s), Service
Modules (SMs), and Services Performance Engines (SPEs).
Access to the Cisco Multi-Gigabit Fabric (MGF) facilitates connection between switch ports on the ISR
without utilizing all of the external ports. A logical GE interface on the ISR connects external and
internal modules through the MGF for improved LAN and WAN switching.
