The IR809 is Cisco’s smallest multimode 3G and 4G LTE wireless router, making it an excellent solution for distribution automation and remote asset management across multiple industrial vertical markets . The IR809 has an integrated 9.6 to 60V DC power input and is designed to withstand hostile environments, including shock, vibration, dust, and humidity, and supports a wide temperature range (–40 to 60°C and type-tested at 85°C for 16 hours). The IR809 brings together:
● Enterprise-class wireline-like services, such as quality of service (QoS)
● Cisco advanced Virtual Private Network (VPN) technologies (such as Dynamic Multipoint VPN [DMVPN] and Flexible VPN [FlexVPN])
● Multiple Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) instances for cellular highly secure data, voice, and video communications
● Cisco IOx, an open, extensible environment for hosting applications at the network edge
The IR809 also extends connectivity to include low-power wide-area (LPWA) access using the Cisco Interface Module for LoRaWAN.
