Key Features
Delivers cloud-scale SD-WAN with on-box Next-Generation Firewall, IPS, and URL filtering. It protects branch Direct Internet Access traffic from external threats without requiring extra appliances.
Supports high-speed CAT18 LTE and 5G wireless WAN connections via integrated Pluggable Interface Modules (PIM). Ideal for establishing primary wireless links or high-bandwidth cellular backups.
Features 1 Service Module (SM) and 1 Network Interface Module (NIM) slot. This allows customization with diverse voice, LAN switching, and compute modules to fit specific branch needs.
Dedicated hardware acceleration provides up to 1.9 Gbps of IPsec throughput (IMIX). It ensures secure, encrypted connectivity for mission-critical data without causing network performance degradation.
Supports Cisco UCS-E compute modules to run Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) and containerized applications. Process data locally at the branch edge to reduce latency and bandwidth usage.
Ships with support for dual power supplies, offering N+1 redundancy. This ensures continuous branch operation and hardware availability even during power circuit failures.
Application Scenarios
Connects medium branches to the cloud with integrated SD-WAN intelligence. Ensures optimal path selection and security for SaaS applications like Office 365 and Salesforce.
Converges routing, switching, and security into a single 1RU chassis. Reduces hardware footprint, cabling complexity, and power consumption for space-constrained remote offices.
Uses the Pluggable Interface Module (PIM) slot for 5G/LTE WAN backup. Guarantees continuous business operations and transaction processing during wired ISP outages.

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.
