Cisco Catalyst IR1800 Rugged Series Routers deliver performance, security, and flexibility to help you accelerate your digitization journey at the edge.

Product overview

Cisco Catalyst IR1800 Rugged Series Routers are Cisco IoT’s most versatile routers, designed for mobile or stationary deployments. They deliver secure, high-performance, 5G routers in a modular design that support private LTE, FirstNet, Verizon Frontline, Wi-Fi6 and Gigabit Ethernet. Designed with a high level of modularity, they can be customized to help you reduce costs and make your networking investments ready for the future, keeping in mind the needs of tomorrow. With high bandwidth and throughputs from 5G and Wi-Fi 6, they enable you to connect all your assets, converge networks and drive efficiency.

The Catalyst IR1800 Series offers enterprise-grade security from the hardware to the network communications all the way to the industrial assets. The routers are powered by Cisco IOS® XE, Cisco’s fully programmable next-generation operating system.

Scale and simplify operations at the edge with powerful network management tools such as the Cisco IoT Operations Dashboard, Cisco DNA Center, and Cisco vManage for configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting.

The IR1800 Series is built to withstand the harsh environments found in transportation, public safety, and oil and gas applications as well as a variety of stationary deployments. Automotive certifications and features such as Controller Area Network (CAN) bus support, dead reckoning and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), and ignition power management make it ideal for secure, reliable connectivity in transit and public safety applications, including first responder vehicles, passenger fleets, service fleets, and commercial truck fleets. The router also provides reliable, rugged connectivity for stationary assets such as oil and gas equipment, solar and wind farms, ATM machines and EV charging stations.

Use data insights from the vehicles to gain operational efficiencies and reduce maintenance costs.

Oil and gas

Monitor pipelines, adjust valve pressure, optimize production, and prevent unplanned downtime.

Enable machine visibility and equipment monitoring to prevent faults before they occur while reducing costs.

Renewable energy production

Collect telemetry, monitor operations, detect incidents, easily gain remote access to control equipment, and ensure physical security in remote locations while leveraging cellular networks to simply connect individual wind turbines and solar panels.

EV chargers

With the risks of broken hardware, unexpected shutoffs, payment problems and more, you need reliable connectivity to your EV infrastructure to monitor and maintain equipment remotely to quickly resolve issues and reduce truck rolls to deliver a seamless customer experience.

Roadways and intersections

Highways and transportation agencies require reliable networks to connect speed cameras, monitoring cameras and more using backhaul technologies such as 4G and 5G with secure remote access capabilities to remotely maintain equipment.

Connected machines

Whether you’re dealing with heavy industrial machinery or remote systems such as ATMs, kiosks, and vending machines, you need connectivity for the machine to access business applications or just to troubleshoot issues and maintain uptimes.

Mining

Connect light duty trucks and other assets using a combination of private cellular networks and Wi-Fi due to spotty public cellular coverage and need for cost-effective high throughput connectivity for high bandwidth applications such as video and file transfers and on-board connectivity for fleets.

Other IR1800-compatible pluggable modules

Automotive dead reckoning GNSS module

The IR1800 Series introduces an advanced automotive dead reckoning GNSS pluggable module (for the IR1833-K9 and IR1835-K9 platforms): IRM-GNSS-ADR.

The module is a powerful automotive-grade GNSS system equipped with automotive dead reckoning software, an embedded 6-axis sensor Micro-Electromechanical System (MEMS), and a powerful core. Whenever GNSS coverage is missing or compromised, the IRM-GNSS-ADR provides accurate estimates of a vehicle’s or moving device’s position and velocity by combining speed and heading data from internal sensors with On-Board Diagnostics (OBD-II) data from the vehicle’s CAN bus.

This multi constellation, pluggable module is ideal for telematics applications that require continuous and reliable accuracy for navigation and tracking.

The table below shows detailed specifications for the automotive dead reckoning GNSS module.
