Data Sheet
Cisco 800M Series Integrated Services Router
Powerful Cisco IOS® Software-based router for small to medium sites offers flexible
connectivity options and simplifies large-scale wireless WAN deployments.
Product Overview
The Cisco® 800M Series Integrated Services Router (ISR) is a modular platform in the Cisco 800 Series ISR
product family. Intended for small to medium sites, it provides a flexible array of WAN connectivity options with
easy migration among WAN interface types. It runs Cisco IOS® Software and delivers built-in security in a single
software image with no additional software licenses required. It also integrates application hosting capabilities right
in the router.
The Cisco 800M ISR is best suited for the following uses:
● Secure WAN connectivity for branches
● Transmitting transactional data from ATM machines, point-of-sale terminals, and kiosks
● Cellular backup to primary wired links
● Quick, easy connectivity in countries where most WAN infrastructure is cellular: 4G LTE /3G connectivity
can be used for primary connections, backup connections, or both
● Locations with WAN services requiring serial connectivity
● Deployments requiring real-time, local data collection and analysis from vending machines, Internet of
Things (IoT) devices, and M2M sensors in other applications
There are two Cisco 800M Series ISR models; the part numbers are C841M-4X and C841M-8X. Both integrate a
Gigabit Ethernet switch and redundant Gigabit Ethernet WAN uplinks. Figure 1 shows the ISR 800M router with
part number C841M-8X.

Features and benefits
The Cisco 800M Series ISR integrates enterprise-class security and application services while delivering the best
price/performance ratio in its class. The router supports highly available and redundant WAN connection options
and lets you easily migrate to different WAN connections for investment protection.
The Cisco 800M ISR is the first in the industry to support multiple 3G technologies on the same pluggable WAN
interface (the Cisco WIM-3G), providing you with the ability to choose the service provider. The platform is future-
enabled, and it provides an open, extensible environment for developing and hosting applications at the network
edge for local processing right in the router. The routers support single-pane-of-glass management and the 3G/4G
cellular Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) MIB.
The Cisco 800M ISR will support Cisco® Fourth-Generation Long-Term Evolution (4G LTE Category 4) Wireless
WAN Interface Module (WIM) to provide the next generation of wireless WAN primary, backhaul, and backup
solutions.
