Cisco 3800 Series
The Cisco 3800 Series is the flagship platform in a portfolio of
next-generation routers that integrate advanced technologies, adaptive
services, and secure enterprise communications.
These new routers offer the performance and reliable packet delivery necessary to efficiently
deliver mission-critical network capabilities, including real-time applications such as voice over
IP (VoIP), business video, and collaborative communications. Architectural enhancements include
embedded security processing, significant platform performance and memory improvements, and
new high-density interface types. These design achievements complement the Cisco IOS®
Software features and superior investment protection that this platform inherits from the Cisco
3700 Series.
The Cisco 3800 Series, comprised of the Cisco 3825 and Cisco 3845, serves as a catalyst for
midsize organizations and enterprise branch offices that want to gracefully scale their enterprise
edges and take advantage of converged business services, while minimizing the cost and
complexity of network upgrades.
