Introduction to the Cisco 3200 Series Routers

The Cisco 3200 Series routers provides industry-standard network software features that run on
ruggedized hardware, suitable for harsh environments. A router includes a combination of mobile
interface cards and a Cisco 3200 Rugged Enclosure. The following major components are available from
Cisco:
Cisco 3200 Rugged Enclosures
•
Cisco 3270 Rugged Router card
•
• Mobile Access Router Card (MARC)
• Fast Ethernet Switch Mobile Interface Cards (FESMICs)
Serial Mobile Interface Cards (SMICs)
•
Wireless Mobile Interface Cards (WMICs)
•
This document describes the Cisco cards and the enclosure solutions that are used to assemble
Cisco 3200 Series routers. A router can be purchased as a complete unit or purchased in part from Cisco
and assembled by a qualified system integrator (SI) as a custom solution. For example, a qualified SI
might assemble cards into a custom enclosure to suit a particular environment. Custom solutions based
on Cisco cards must include a power source, cables, and an enclosure. For information about the specific
hardware configuration of your router, contact your SI.
