Service providers and value-added resellers can take advantage of the Cisco 870 Series to provide a true business-class broadband service. Business
customers are using broadband access to connect to the Internet or to connect offices together, and require a platform that incorporates security
without sacrificing performance. Many of these customers are connecting computers in offices through WLANs; having a single device for both
WAN and WLAN access provides a new option for managed services. These customers also require a higher level of support to keep their networks
up and running. Services with these customers should be simple to set up, while allowing a level of remote management and troubleshooting to
quickly address support inquiries. The Cisco 870 Series meets the requirements of small offices and managed services providers.
