Summary
Cisco 860VAE Series Integrated Services Routers combine increased network performance with advanced
security to allow teleworkers to get the most from their broadband connections at a very affordable price. Cisco
860VAE Series Routers can be deployed at any small- or branch-office location, including standalone service
orchestration points such as ATM machines or point-of-sale (POS) systems. With the Cisco 860VAE Series,
service providers can take advantage of a solution that can be set up easily at a remote site and centrally managed
across diverse deployment scenarios. The Cisco 860VAE Series provides excellent value by reducing operating
expenses (OpEx) and capital expenditures (CapEx) and hence the total cost of ownership (TCO) while providing
the latest connectivity and security features.
