Data Sheet

to configure, deploy, and manage. By combining call control, messaging, and security into one

device, the Cisco 1861 eliminates the added costs of multiple servers and provides a solution that

is easy to set up and manage at a lower price point.

Table 1 summarizes the features and benefits of the Cisco 1861 Integrated Services Router.

Table 1. Platform Features and Benefits

Feature Benefits

Solution

Packaging

●

Both foreign exchange office (FXO) and Basic Rate Interface (BRI) fixed configurations are

offered for both Cisco Unified CME + Cisco Unity Express and Cisco Unified SRST

applications.

●

Each configuration is equipped with the appropriate number of feature licenses for call

processing and voicemail, simplifying the product structure.

●

The appropriate number of fixed digital signal processors (DSPs) is packaged with each

configuration.

Modularity

●

A high-speed WIC (HWIC) slot is available for data WAN integration through a select list of

HWICs. Refer to Table 9 for a list of supported HWICs.

●

The default Cisco IOS Software image SP Services K9 can be upgraded to optional advanced

images. Refer to Table 7 for a list of software images supported.

Ethernet

Connectivity with

QoS

●

Ethernet connectivity is provided for IP phones or wireless access points by PoE ports that

provide connectivity speeds for up to 100BASE-T Ethernet technology without the need for

additional power modules. Most Cisco Unified IP phones include a 10/100 switch with QoS to

provide PC desktop connectivity to the network.

●

Optimized QoS is provided for IP phone and desktop configurations. The QoS level helps

ensure that voice over IP (VoIP) traffic takes precedence.

●

Voice and data traffic travels in preconfigured VLANs

●

Port security is provided to limit unauthorized access to the network.

Power Failover

●

A power failover feature is provided on the base configuration, giving access to the public

switched telephone network (PSTN) lines in case of a power outage. When power is lost, FXO

PSTN trunks are directly connected to foreign exchange station (FXS) analog ports, allowing

for calls to be placed and received.

Recorded

Announcements

for Callers: Music

on Hold (MOH)

●

The process for providing customized MOH announcements is simplified with a dedicated

MOH port, allowing small-business owners to play recorded announcements to their callers by

simply plugging the audio source into the provided 3.5-mm mini-jack.

●

Customers can also use wave files stored on flash memory.

●

MOH is an audio stream that is played to PSTN and VoIP G.711 or G.729 callers who are

placed on hold by the phone user. This audio reassures the callers that they are still connected

to the called party.

Deployment

Options

●

The Cisco 1861 can be deployed as a desktop unit, wall-mounted, or installed in a standard

19-inch (48.26-cm) rack with an optional rack-mount kit.

Cisco Unified Communications Features

IP telephony is currently undergoing tremendous growth, accelerated by access to value-added

features and applications that only IP telephony can provide to the end user. Additionally, the cost

benefits of converging data, voice, and video on a single network are adding to the rapid

acceptance of this technology. Because it is integrated into a single system, the Cisco 1861

Integrated Services Router for SMBs and enterprise small branch offices enhances the

advantages of convergence by offering the following unique benefits:

●

Cost-effective operations through a single, integrated voice-and-data platform for all

SMB and enterprise branch office needs: This highly reliable platform provides robust

QoS and the right level of security, encryption, and firewall to deliver enhanced VPN

services to meet small-business needs. The system delivers integrated IP telephony,

voicemail, and Automated-Attendant functions, allowing you to deploy one device to

address all your business needs—thereby simplifying management, maintenance, and

operations and delivering a lower total cost of ownership (TCO).

●

Sophisticated key system and private branch exchange (PBX) capabilities: SMBs and

enterprise branch offices have different workflows and require specialized features to
