The Cisco 890G Series Fourth-Generation Long-Term Evolution (4G LTE) 2.5 ISRs are fixed-configuration routers that provide collaborative business solutions for secure voice and data communications to enterprise small branch offices with support for the latest Third-Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Release 8 Category 4 LTE standards. They provide persistent reliable LTE connectivity with fallback and transparent handoff to earlier technologies. The routers are designed to deliver secure broadband Metro Ethernet or any xDSL variants wireless WAN (WWAN) connectivity and business continuity. They also come with powerful management tools such as the web-based Cisco Configuration Professional configuration management tool which simplifies setup and deployment.

• Cisco 4G LTE 890G 2.5: Multimode LTE 2.5 for carriers that operate FDD LTE 700-MHz (band 28) 850-MHz (band 5 CLR) 850-MHz (bands 18 and 19 Low) 900-MHz (band 8) 1500-MHz (band 21) 1800-MHz (band 3) 2100-MHz (band 1) or 2600-MHz (band 7) networks; the multimode 890G Series 4G LTE 2.5 routers are backward compatible with Universal Mobile Telecommunications Service (UMTS) and Dual Carrier High-Speed Packet Access Plus (DC-HSPA+): 800 MHz (band 19 Japan) 850 MHz (band 5) 850 MHz (band 6 Japan) 900 MHz (band 8) 1800 MHz (band 9) 2100 MHz (band 1) and TD-SCDMA 39.
  • Multimode LTE 2.5 for carriers that operate TDD LTE 1900-MHz (band 39) 2300-MHz (band 40) 2500-MHz (band 41) or 2600-MHz (band 38) networks.
  • Multimode LTE 2.5 for carrier aggregation band combinations: 1+(8181921); 3+(571928); 7+(5728); 19+21 38+38 39+39 40+40 41+41.

• Security services such as firewall intrusion prevention VPN and Cisco ISR Web Security with Cisco ScanSafe which require no additional hardware or client software. This enables branch offices manufacturing sites hospitals banks and mobile fleets for example to intelligently redirect web traffic to the cloud to enforce granular security and acceptable use policies over user web traffic. With this solution you can deploy market-leading web security quickly and easily to protect branch-office users from web-based threats such as viruses while saving bandwidth money and resources.
• Additional WAN options such as Gigabit Ethernet WAN interfaces and an 8-port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet managed switch for LAN connectivity. The Cisco 890G Series ISRs provide quality-of-service (QoS) features for optimizing voice and video applications.
• Cisco Configuration Professional a web-based configuration tool that simplifies setup and deployment. Centralized management capabilities give network managers visibility into and control over the network configurations at remote sites.
• WWAN services offering enhanced data rates and improved latency (30 ms or less)-an ideal way to supplement traditional wired-line services. The 4G LTE WWAN data services offered today have average data rates well in excess of ISDN speeds with theoretical limits of 100 Mbps on the downlink and 50 Mbps on the uplink. The actual data speed depends on the service provider's network. With 4G LTE data rates the WWAN offers a primary WAN link solution capable of running comprehensive branch-office services including voice and video services. The 4G LTE WWAN data services can also be used as a cost-effective alternative in areas where broadband services are either not available or very expensive. Cisco is building on these performance milestones and adding support for wireless to our wide variety of WAN interface alternatives.
