Overview of the Router
Cisco 1600 series routers are a family of small desktop routers that link small-to-medium
remote Ethernet LANs to regional and central offices over multiple WAN connections.
This chapter contains the following sections:
•Router Features
•WAN Interface Cards
•Rear-Panel Connectors
•Router Memory
•Unpacking the Router
•Equipment That You Must Provide

Router Features
Note The Cisco 1600 series routers are either run-from-flash (RFF) or run-from-RAM
(RFR) models. Router model names with an Rare RFR routers; all other models are RFF.
In this document, model names without an Rrefer to both RFF and RFR models, except
where noted. The “Router Memory” section later in this chapter describes the differences
between RFF and RFR models.
Listed below are some features of the Cisco 1600 series routers:
•One or two Ethernet LAN connections, using either the 10BaseT or AUI LAN ports.
(Refer to Table 1-1 for more information about the LAN connections supported by each
model.)
•One fixed WAN port (except for the Cisco 1605). (Refer to Table 1-1 for more
information about the WAN connections supported by each model.)
•One slot for a WAN interface card, for flexibility in choosing WAN connections that the
router supports. (Refer to the section “WAN Interface Cards” later in this chapter for
more information about WAN interface cards.)
•Flash memory PC card (PCMCIA-compatible), which can be preconfigured by a
network administrator and installed in the router at a remote site.
•Console port, which supports router management using a terminal or a PC with terminal
emulation software.
•Router management over the network using Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP).
•AutoInstall for downloading configuration files automatically over a WAN connection.
•Security slot for Kensington-compatible lockdown cable.

Overview of the Router 1-3

Frame Relay, 56-kbps services, SMDS, and X.25, up to
2.048 Mbps (EIA/TIA-232, V.35, X.21, EIA/TIA-499,
EIA-530).
• Supports asynchronous connections up to 115.2 kbps.
Cisco 1602 • One 10BaseT
• One AUI
Serial—Supports synchronous mode, including 56-kbps and
dataphone digital service (DDS) connections, with an
integrated 56-kbps DSU/CSU2.
2 DSU/CSU = data service unit/channel service unit.
Cisco 1603 • One 10BaseT
• One AUI
ISDN BRI S/T—Supports one ISDN BRI connection. (An
ISDN BRI connection consists of two 64-kbps B channels and
one 16-kbps D channel.)
Cisco 1604 • One 10BaseT
• One AUI
One ISDN BRI U—Supports routing over an ISDN BRI
connection.
One ISDN BRI S/T (with integrated NT13)—Supports one
additional ISDN device (such as an ISDN telephone) on the
same ISDN line as the router.
3 NT1 = Network Termination 1.
Cisco 1605 • Two 10BaseT
• One AUI
The Cisco 1605 supports two LAN
connections.
The Cisco 1605 supports one WAN interface on a WAN
interface card that can be installed in the router. A variety of
WAN types are supported, depending on the type of card
installed.
For more information on individual cards, refer to the Cisco
WAN Interface Cards Hardware Installation Guide that comes
with each card.

WAN Interface Cards
Cisco 1600 Series Router Hardware Installation Guide
1-4
WAN Interface Cards
On the Cisco 1601 through Cisco 1604, you can use the WAN interface card connection as
a secondary WAN connection, which can be used if the router on-board WAN connection
fails. On the Cisco 1605, you can choose the type of WAN connection that you want for
your network.
For more information about the cards, including function, installation, and configuration,
refer to the Cisco WAN Interface Cards Hardware Installation Guide document that comes
with the card. You received this document if you ordered a WAN interface card.
