Cisco 3G Wireless WAN HWIC CDMA-V Radio Modem

The Cisco 3G Wireless WAN HWIC CDMA-S Radio Modem are the first enterprise-class 3G Wireless WAN solution. Suitable for both backup and primary applications, the Cisco 3G Wireless WAN HWIC support the latest CDMA Standards and are backward compatible with the widely deployed Networks (1xRTT, GPRS/EDGE).

The Cisco (3G) Wireless WAN (WWAN) High-Speed WAN Interface Cards (HWICs) for Cisco Integrated Services Router provides the next generation of wireless WAN backup solutions. The Cisco 3G WWAN HWICs are the first enterprise-class 3G WWAN solution. Suitable for both backup and primary applications, these cards support the latest 3G standards (High-Speed Packet Access [HSPA] and Evolve- Data Optimized [EVDO] Rev A) and are backward-compatible with Universal Mobile Telecommunications Service (UMTS), Enhanced Data Rates for Global Evolution (EDGE), General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) and EVDO Rev 0/1xRTT.

The Cisco 3G WWAN HWICs are tightly integrated with the services provided on the award-winning Cisco integrated services routers, which deliver secure data, voice, video and mobility services. The Cisco 3G WWAN HWICs are supported on the modular Cisco 1841 and 1861 Integrated Services Routers and the Cisco 1900, 2800, 2900, 3800 and 3900 Series Integrated Services Routers.

With enhanced data rates and improved latency (below 100 milliseconds), WWAN services are an ideal way to supplement traditional wire line services. 3G WWAN data services offered today have average data rates well in excess of ISDN speeds, with theoretical limits in excess of 7 Mbps on the downlink and 5 Mbps on the uplink. You can use the 3G WWAN as a primary link for sites with lower bandwidth requirements and for mobile applications. Cisco is building on these performance milestones and adding support for wireless to wide variety of WAN interface alternatives.
