Product Review

The Cisco CISCO2901-16TS/K9 offers a versatile array of connectivity options, including 2 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports and a comprehensive set of management ports, enhancing its functionality for diverse network configurations. However, its initial DRAM and flash memory capacities may be limiting for advanced applications, though they are expandable to 2 GB and 8 GB, respectively, to accommodate growth. Additionally, the unit's lack of support for external Redundant Power Supplies (RPS) could be a drawback for environments requiring high availability.

Overview

The Cisco CISCO2901-16TS/K9 integrates key networking functions into a single, comprehensive solution designed for efficient and reliable data, voice, video, and mobility services. This model is equipped with 2 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 network ports for high-speed connectivity and various management ports including a serial console, AUX, a mini-USB Type B console, and two USB 2.0 Type A ports for flexible administration. At the heart of its modular architecture, the device features four Enhanced High-Speed WAN Interface Card (EHWIC) slots, two Digital Signal Processor (DSP) slots for voice and video services, and one Internal Services Module (ISM) slot, offering significant expansion capabilities. The package includes one HWIC-16A module, enhancing its immediate usability for complex network setups. Memory and storage are critical for sustained performance in networking equipment. The CISCO2901-16TS/K9 comes with 512 MB of DRAM and 256 MB of flash memory pre-installed, supporting upgrades up to 2 GB and 8 GB respectively. This scalability ensures that the router can handle evolving network demands and complex operations. Power efficiency and options are well-considered with an internal AC power supply provided, and it supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) for driving PoE-capable devices directly from the router. Although it does not support an external Redundant Power Supply (RPS), it offers a broad AC input voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC, auto-ranging, and operates efficiently within a power draw of 40 watts typically, scaling up to 150 watts with the AC power supply or 175 watts with the PoE power supply. Physical specifications are compact and rack-mountable in a 1-RU form factor, with dimensions of 1.75 x 17.25 x 17.3 inches, making it suitable for standard equipment racks. The device is designed to operate reliably in a wide range of temperatures and altitudes, ensuring stability and performance in various environmental conditions. Key hardware features include: -
  • USB Console Port (Type B) supporting speeds up to 115.2 kbps,
  • Serial Console and Auxiliary Ports for traditional management,
  • Comprehensive power supply options with AC and PoE capabilities.
The Cisco CISCO2901-16TS/K9 is engineered for businesses requiring a versatile networking platform that can adapt to changing needs. Its modular design, coupled with upgradeable memory and flash capacities, ensures longevity and a high return on investment. This router is an effective solution for organizations looking to consolidate their networking hardware into a single, efficient device capable of supporting a wide array of services and applications.
