Cisco Residential Wireless Gateway Model
DPC3848/DPC3848V/DPC3848VM
Looking for a multifaceted, high-performance home and small office gateway that combines a cable modem, router, and wireless access points in a single device? You’ve found it in the Cisco® Residential Wireless Gateway Model DPC3848. This cost-effective networking solution provides a faster connection to the Internet by incorporating 24 bonded downstream channels along with eight bonded upstream channels. Bonded channels can deliver downstream data rates of up to 900 Mbps and upstream data rates up to 170 Mbps. That’s up to 24 times faster downloads than conventional single-channel DOCSIS® 2.0 cable modems.
The Cisco Residential Wireless Gateway Model DPC3848 (Figure 1) is designed to meet DOCSIS 3.0 specifications and provide backward compatibility for operation in DOCSIS 2.0, 1.1, and 1.0 networks.

This Cisco integrated router features a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, Network Address Translation (NAT) and Network Address and Port Translation (NAPT), and a Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) firewall. These features provide a single high speed public Internet connection and allow users to share files and folders between devices in the home network by attaching multiple wired and wireless devices in the active home or office to the wireless residential gateway.
Consumer-friendly features like Wireless Protected Setup (WPS) and user-configured Parental Control can protect the home network from unwelcome intruders and family members from access to undesirable web sites.
