C8151H-C-G2 Description

The C8151H-C-G2 is a Cisco 8100 Series Secure Router for small branches that terminate a 10G BASE-T circuit and need built-in 5G backup. The fanless router has one 1GE RJ-45/SFP combo and one 10G BASE-T WAN port, six 1GE LAN ports, 5.6 Gbps of forwarding, 900 Mbps of SD-WAN and 500K IPv4 routes. The 3GPP Release 17 5G module is embedded with dual nano SIM slots rather than pluggable, and the router requires Cisco IOS XE 26.1.2.

Key Features

10G BASE-T WAN Port

One 10G BASE-T WAN port sits beside a 1GE RJ-45/SFP combo WAN port, so a ten-gigabit copper circuit terminates directly on the router.

Embedded 5G Release 17 Module

The 3GPP Release 17 module is built into the chassis, so no cellular slot is used and no separate module is fitted. It covers 25 5G FR1 bands from n1 to n79 and LTE bands B1 through B106.

Two Nano SIM Slots

Dual nano SIM slots hold profiles from two carriers at the same time, which keeps a failover path independent of a single operator’s coverage.

Six LAN Ports And Two Flex Ports

Six 1GE RJ-45 LAN ports and two 1GE RJ-45 Flex ports connect the site’s wired devices behind the faster uplink.

SD-WAN And Threat Protection Throughput

SD-WAN Capable is Yes at 900 Mbps, with 1 Gbps of Threat Protection and 5.6 Gbps of forwarding. The minimum releases are Cisco IOS XE 26.1.2 and Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Release 26.1.2.

25W Fanless Chassis

The 5.1 lb body draws 25W typical from a 66W external supply and has no fan. It mounts in a rack, on a desk, under a desk, on DIN-rail or on a wall.

Application Scenarios

Ten-Gigabit Copper Handoff

At a branch where the carrier delivers a 10G BASE-T circuit, the router terminates it on its 10G BASE-T WAN port and serves the local devices on six LAN ports.

Dual-Carrier Wireless Failover

Remote offices can keep SIM profiles from two operators in the dual nano SIM slots, so the 5G backup path can move between carriers when one loses coverage.

Quiet Fanless Locations

Occupied rooms, under-desk positions and wall-mount spots can host the 5.1 lb fanless chassis without fan noise.

C8151H-C-G2 is the 10G BASE-T WAN model with embedded 5G: it has six LAN ports, 5.6 Gbps forwarding and 500K IPv4 routes, while C8151-CVAI-G2 has the same LAN count, forwarding and embedded 5G but adds an RJ-11 DSL port and an XGSPON/10G BASE-T WAN port. Sites on a DSL or XGSPON circuit need C8151-CVAI-G2. Sites that need no cellular and only two LAN ports can use C8130H-G2, which forwards 1.9 Gbps, holds 280K IPv4 routes and 1K VRFs, and runs SD-WAN only from Cisco IOS XE 26.2.1. C8151H-C-G2 requires Cisco IOS XE 26.1.2, while C8151-CVAI-G2 starts at 26.1.1.

Questions & Answers

  • What forwarding throughput does C8151H-C-G2 reach, and at what packet size?

    C8151H-C-G2 forwards 5.6 Gbps at 512-byte packets. SD-WAN runs at 900 Mbps with IPsec, QoS, deep packet inspection and Flexible NetFlow enabled, and Threat Protection runs at 1 Gbps with NAT, firewall, IPS, URL filtering and AMP enabled.
  • Which software image options does the ordering guide list for C8151H-C-G2?

    The Cisco 8000 Series ordering guide lists two image options for C8151H-C-G2, SC81G2UK9-261 and SC81G2NEK9-261. Both carry a minimum of Cisco IOS XE 26.1.2 for Routing and SD-WAN, and image selection is not available during ordering.
  • Which external AC adapter is the default order configuration for C8151H-C-G2?

    The Cisco 8000 Series ordering guide lists the default power supply as the AC adapter PWR-CC1-66WAC. The data sheet rates the external supply at 66W, and typical draw is 25W, so the default adapter covers the router at normal load.
  • From which release is platform-based licensing supported on C8151H-C-G2?

    Platform-based licensing was introduced for C8151H-C-G2 in the Cisco IOS XE 26.1.x releases, per the Cisco 8000 Series licensing guide. The licensing tags then apply to the router in autonomous, SD-Routing and SD-WAN controller modes.
  • Which license tags does C8151H-C-G2 use in SD-WAN controller mode?

    In SD-WAN controller mode C8151H-C-G2 takes Cisco WAN Essentials (LIC-CSWAN-S-E) or Cisco WAN Advantage (LIC-CSWAN-S-A), per the Cisco 8000 Series licensing guide. The Routing OS Essentials entitlement used in autonomous mode is not listed for controller mode.
