Why Upgrade from ISR 4331? The Cisco C8300-1N1S-6T is the direct next-generation successor to the widely deployed ISR 4331. By migrating, organizations gain 4.5x faster IPsec encryption performance (1.9 Gbps vs. 420 Mbps) and integrated 5G readiness without increasing rack footprint. Unlike the ISR 4331, the C8300 series is engineered from the ground up for SASE and cloud-native SD-WAN architectures, eliminating the throughput bottlenecks often faced by legacy routers in modern broadband environments.

Questions & Answers

  • What is Cisco C8300-1N1S-6T used for?

    Cisco C8300-1N1S-6T is a 1RU Catalyst 8300 edge platform for branch routing and SD-WAN sites that need 6 embedded 1G Ethernet ports plus modular expansion.
  • What do 1N1S and 6T mean in C8300-1N1S-6T?

    In C8300-1N1S-6T, 1N1S means 1 NIM slot and 1 service-module slot. 6T means 6 embedded 1G Ethernet ports with no embedded 10G ports.
  • How much SD-WAN IPsec throughput does C8300-1N1S-6T provide?

    C8300-1N1S-6T is rated up to 2 Gbps SD-WAN IPsec throughput with 1400-byte traffic. IMIX and security-service traffic profiles reduce the usable result.
  • How is C8300-1N1S-6T different from C8300-2N2S-4T2X?

    C8300-1N1S-6T is the smaller 1RU 1G WAN model with 1 NIM slot and 1 SM slot. C8300-2N2S-4T2X is a 2RU model with more module slots and embedded 10G ports.
  • Does C8300-1N1S-6T have 10G ports?

    No. C8300-1N1S-6T has 6 embedded 1G Ethernet ports. If embedded 10G WAN ports are required, compare it with C8300-1N1S-4T2X or C8300-2N2S-4T2X.
  • Can C8300-1N1S-6T run in autonomous routing mode?

    Yes. C8300-1N1S-6T supports IOS XE autonomous routing as well as Catalyst SD-WAN use cases. Routing, IPsec, NAT, QoS, and firewall features depend on software and licensing.
  • When is C8300-1N1S-6T better than C8200-1N-4T?

    C8300-1N1S-6T is the better fit when the branch needs a service-module slot, higher tunnel scale, or Catalyst 8300 platform headroom. C8200-1N-4T fits smaller 1N-4T branch requirements.
  • What needs sizing before buying C8300-1N1S-6T?

    C8300-1N1S-6T sizing depends on 6 embedded 1G ports, IPsec throughput, SD-WAN tunnel scale, 1 NIM slot, 1 SM slot, voice modules, DRAM, and software mode.
