Retail VPN: Retail stores migrating from dialup connections for point-of-sale transactions can use the Cisco
880 Series to take advantage of low-cost broadband access with the required security to comply with
payment-card-industry (PCI) and other data security requirements. They can then add multiple devices and
applications to the store network to take advantage of the increased bandwidth and also incorporate
optional WLAN support to enable secure mobility and enhance productivity.
●
Managed services: Service providers and value-added resellers can use the Cisco 880 Series as a platform
to offer differentiated business-class security, voice, and WLAN services for small business customers. With
built-in analog and digital voice ports and the ability to upgrade to a five-user Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Express IP PBX, service providers can now offer all the Cisco Unified Communications benefits to
small and medium-sized businesses. The SIP trunking connectivity features of the Cisco 880 with the Cisco
Unified Border Element Series Router can provide the high-quality VoIP service needed through the service
provider cloud.
