General Description
The 800 Series Industrial Integrated Services Routers are compact, ruggedized, Cisco IOS Software
routers. They offer support for integrated 4G LTE wireless WAN (both 809 and 829 models) and wireless
LAN capabilities (829 model only). The IR829 offers an Internal WLAN Access Point which runs
on-board the router. The AP803 runs its own IOS software independently from the IR829 IOS, and
requires configuring. The AP803 works as a standalone access point or with a wireless controller.
They offer:
•
Easily and rapidly deployable
•
Highly available, highly secure, and reliable
•
Designed for machine-to-machine (M2M) communication and for mobile vehicle communication in
harsh environmental conditions
•
Designed to withstand hostile environments, tolerating a wide temperature range
These industrialized routers deliver enterprise-class features, including highly secure data, voice, and
video communications to stationary and mobile network nodes across wired and wireless links. They can
deliver enterprise-grade, wireline-like functionality.
