What are the benefits? - One Device, Multiple Functions: An integrated services network router enables organizations to take advantage of numerous built-in technologies such as voice, wireless, and advanced security systems while ensuring the quality of service (QoS) prioritization their network applications demand. Because the network services are built in or can be easily added to the integrated services network router, companies can install one sophisticated device rather than purchase separate products to provide each individual function.
- Same Access at Headquarters and Remote Sites: An integrated services network router gives all workers—even those at branch offices or remote sites such as a home or hotel room—the same access to business applications, unified communications, and videoconferencing. Modular solutions allow you to install the features you need for a particular office, and upgrade equipment when needs change or an office expands.
- Centralized Management: An integrated services network router approach means technical staff can manage the network centrally. This allows technical departments to allocate resources to priority projects while providing reliable service to employees in all locations.
- Lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO): Reduce device clutter, management complexity, operational costs, and interoperability efforts and energy costs, but also be more environmentally friendly, improve your bottom line, customer satisfaction, employee collaboration and investment protection.
Integrated Features: IP-based voice, wireless and security are only the first in a new wave of advanced applications that are beginning to powerfully change the ways in which businesses operate. Organizations must consider how they can best enable their networks today so that their companies can continuously take advantage of new applications quickly, secure them easily, and manage them efficiently in pursuit of their business goals. Integrated Security: Secure RoutingA Cisco SecureWan bundle can add valuable security functions to your Cisco router at low incremental cost, while providing a strong ROI. Today’s networks run mission-critical business services that need protection from external and internal threats. Cisco Secure WAN bundles provide this protection with simple, manageable single-box solutions for considerably less cost and aggravation than adding these features later, maximizing the return on your router investment. By installing a complete solution and managing it centrally, companies can protect valuable corporate data using multiple types of protection, such as encryption, firewall filtering, antivirus protection, and intrusion detection and prevention. | Baseline Security Routers | Enhanced Security Routers | Secure Voice Bundles | Secure Wireless Bundles | - Enables Security and VPN Capabilities
