dual radio, the Cisco AP can serve both as an AP and as a client to a wireless mesh network concurrently: Hence
providing another source for WAN diversity along with GE interface, cellular. Additionally, the ClientLink feature on the
AP improves reliability and coverage for legacy devices and the capability to do dynamic frequency selection (DFS)
allows detecting and avoiding interfering with radar signals to comply with regulatory domains.
With enhanced data rates and improved latency (below 100 milliseconds), WWAN services are an ideal way to
supplement traditional wire-line services. Third-generation WWAN data services offered today have average data rates
well in excess of ISDN speeds, with theoretical limits in excess of 21.1 Mbps on the downlink and 5.76 Mbps on the
uplink. You can use the 3G WWAN as a primary link for sites with lower bandwidth requirements and for mobile
applications. You can also use the 3G WWAN data services as a cost-effective alternative in areas where broadband
services are either not available or very expensive. Cisco is building on these performance milestones and adding
support for wireless to our wide variety of WAN interface alternatives.
Key Business Benefits
Applications
The Cisco 880G Series is ideal for deployment by small businesses, retail locations, small branch offices that are part of
a large enterprise network, and a host of other deployments that need high-speed wireless connectivity and secure
data, voice, and wireless services.
Small Remote Office
The Cisco 880G Series connects users in small remote offices, such as those for insurance agents, lawyers, or sales, to
the main office. You can use the integrated 3G wireless backup option for added reliability when the primary broadband
link fails, or as the primary connection for deployments that are portable, such as insurance adjustment, mobile banking,
and mobile retail. When connecting to the main office, VPN encryption and integrated security features such as firewall
and intrusion prevention protect the network at every perimeter. IT managers can centrally manage the remote site to
quickly troubleshoot network problems. Integrated secure unified WLAN connectivity simplifies the deployment and
management of devices at the remote site.
Virtual Office
The Cisco 880G Series is ideal for corporate teleworkers, who might have a mix of broadband connection types such as
DS, 3G, and Ethernet. The Cisco 880G Series provides a secure virtual office with all the collaborative services such as
data, voice, and video. Redundant WAN links help ensure business continuity. QoS features in the Cisco 880 Series
allow you to connect an IP phone to the router, giving voice traffic precedence over data applications. Integrated WLAN
support in the Cisco 880 Series helps ensure that if you use wireless connectivity, the connection will be secure.
Retail VPN
Retail stores migrating from dialup connections for point-of-sale transactions can use the 3G wireless option on the
Cisco 880G Series for low-cost broadband access with the required security to comply with payment-card-industry (PCI)
and other data security requirements. Then they can 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 880G Series as a platform to offer differentiated
business-class security and WLAN services for small to medium-sized business customers. Superior management
capabilities such as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) support with 3G MIB and Cisco Configuration
Professional make remote management and provisioning easier.
