Key Benefits
The Cisco 1700 Series routers support the value of end-to-end Cisco network solutions with the following benefits:
Flexibility—The modular Cisco 1751 Router adapts easily to fit the needs of growing businesses. Interchangeable
WAN interface cards enable easy additions or changes in WAN technologies without requiring a forklift upgrade of
the entire platform. Modular data and voice slots enable users to tailor data and voice services as needed. With the
ability to use the same field-upgradable WAN and voice interface cards across multiple Cisco access router platforms,
the Cisco 1751 Router reduces requirements for spare parts inventory and support training.
Multiservice Access—For businesses that want to become e-Businesses and incorporate applications that integrate
multiservice voice/video/data/fax capabilities now or in the future, the Cisco 1751 Router offers a flexible,
cost-effective answer. The Cisco 1751 Router enables network managers to save on long-distance interoffice billing
costs. It also interoperates with next-generation voice-enabled applications such as integrated messaging and
Web-based call centers. The Cisco 1751 Router works with the existing telephone infrastructure—phones, fax
machines, key telephone systems (KTS) units, and PBX (including digital PBXs)—minimizing capital costs.
