PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The integrated services routing architecture of the Cisco 3800 Series builds on the powerful Cisco 3700 Series routers designed to embed and
integrate security and voice processing with advanced wired and wireless services for rapid deployment of new applications, including application
layer functions, intelligent network services, and converged communications. The Cisco 3800 Series supports the bandwidth requirements for
multiple Fast Ethernet interfaces per slot, time-division multiplexing (TDM) interconnections, and fully integrated power distribution to modules
supporting 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE), while still supporting the existing portfolio of modular interfaces. This ensures continuing investment
protection to accommodate network expansion or changes in technology as new services and applications are deployed. By integrating the functions
of multiple separate devices into a single compact unit, the Cisco 3800 Series dramatically reduces the cost and complexity of managing remote
networks.
New models include the Cisco 3825 and the Cisco 3845, available with three optional configurations for AC power, AC power with integrated inline
power support, and DC power.
