Deliver Secure, High-Speed DOCSIS Data and Voice Commercial Services with the
Cisco uBR900 Series Cable Access Router

Cisco uBR900 Series Cable Access Routers allow cable service providers to deliver feature-rich, business-class Virtual Private Network (VPN) and Voice-over-IP (VoIP) services to small businesses, branch offices, and corporate telecommuters. The products integrate a DOCSIS 1.1-based cable modem and Cisco IOS® Software router in one platform that contains dedicated hardware to achieve high-speed IP Security (IPSec) VPN performance. Fully standards-based, Cisco uBR900 Series Cable Access Routers operate in DOCSIS bridge mode similar to compliant modems, but include routing, advanced firewall, and IPSec VPN features that transform the devices into powerful enterprise or cable customer premises equipment (CPE) products.

Cisco uBR900 Series Cable Access Routers include the following:

  • The Cisco uBR905 Cable Access Router, which integrates a 4-port, 10BaseT Ethernet hub with firewall and IPSec VPN technologies in a single, compact design.

  • The Cisco uBR925 Cable Access Router, which offers all the capabilities of the Cisco uBR905 Cable Access Router, but also supports voice, modem, and fax calls over a cable IP network, and includes a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connection.
