Router Cisco C8161-G2
8× 1 GE RJ‑45 + 2× GE RJ‑45/SFP combo (includes 1 WAN, 1 flex)
Series routers Cisco 8000 Series Secure Routers — This is a family of devices designed to build a fault -resistant, scaled and protected network infrastructure. Equipment is focused on operator networks, large corporate solutions and cloud environments that require high capacity, energy efficiency and support of modern security protocols.
The routers of this series are built on the basis of architecture Cisco Silicon One™, which provides performance up to 25,6 TbIT/s on a single system-on-a-chip (SoC). This solution allows you to handle significant volumes of traffic with minimal delay, which is critically important for the main networks, the dated centers and distributed corporate structures.
Technical features and key characteristics:
-
Processors Cisco Silicon One Q200/Q100/Q800 — Specialized Chips, adopted to achieve maximum port density and energy efficiency.
-
Throughput to 25,6 TbIT/with on one device; support modular configurations and scaling to dozens TbIT/s in chassis solutions.
-
Support for interfaces 100G/400G/800G, including with QSFP-DD, CFP2 and QSFP56, which ensures flexibility when connecting to modern equipment.
-
Operating system Cisco IOS XR7 — modular, with maintenance of containerization, NetConf/YANG, gRPC and automation based on AI/ML.
-
Safety functions include Secure Boot, Trust Anchor Module (TAM), hardware encryption as well as built -in post -quantic cryptography algorithms (Post-Quantum Cryptography — PQC), According to the recommendations NIST.
-
Compatibility with SD-WAN, Telemetry in real time, cloudy API and external management systems.
-
support IPv4/IPv6, MPLS, Segment Routing, BGP, EVPN, which makes devices universal for any type of network.
Models Cisco 8000 include how Modular chassis-solutions (For example, a series 8800), So Compact fixed devices (8201, 8202 and others), which are suitable for installation in standard 600 mm depth racks. This provides flexibility when choosing equipment for specific tasks — from interregional routing to border gateways of corporate networks.
Structurally devices Cisco 8000 They are characterized by high reliability: Implemented support hot-swap modules, redundant power supplies, intelligent cooling and overheating protection. Industrial execution metal body and architecture with minimal quantity of failure make equipment resistant to external influences.
Special attention is paid to energy efficiency: thanks to the architecture Silicon One reached a decrease in energy consumption on therabite traffic to 0,3 W>/ GbIT that is significantly lower than previous generations. This allows to reduce operating costs and heat load in server rooms.
Integration with multi -dick environments (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud), availability of built -in orchestration and automation make Cisco 8000 Series a topical solution for constructing hybrid and software-defined networks (SDN). In addition, devices support the deployment of micro -services and containers within their own operating system.
Routers Cisco 8000 Series Secure Routers Certified according to international security standards and can be used in critically important information systems. All models pass pre -sales testing and are supplied with official support from the manufacturer.
