Cisco C1111-8PLTE — 8-Port ISR Router with LTE Advanced

The Cisco C1111-8PLTE is an Integrated Services Router featuring 8 Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports, an integrated LTE Advanced modem with dual-SIM capability, and optional DSL WAN support. Backed by a 12-month warranty from Reboot IT, it is suited to medium branch offices needing resilient multi-WAN connectivity.

Key Benefits

• LTE Advanced with Dual SIM: Two SIM card slots for carrier diversity — if one network fails, the router automatically switches to the backup
• 8x Gigabit Ethernet LAN Ports: Expanded LAN capacity for medium branch offices without requiring an additional switch
• Integrated DSL WAN: VDSL2/ADSL2+ support for NBN FTTN and legacy DSL services as a primary or secondary WAN link
• Cisco IOS XE: Full enterprise routing — OSPF, BGP, QoS, IPSec VPN, DMVPN, and zone-based firewall
• Desktop Compact Form: Rack-free deployment for branch offices and retail environments without dedicated network rooms
• 12-Month Warranty: Tested and reset to factory defaults by Reboot IT's Melbourne-based technicians

Performance in Use

The C1111-8PLTE is designed for medium branch offices that need more LAN capacity than a four-port router provides. Eight GbE ports accommodate a broader range of locally connected devices, while the dual-SIM LTE modem provides flexibility to use two different carriers simultaneously — ensuring connectivity remains available even when one network experiences an outage.

Running Cisco IOS XE, the C1111-8PLTE supports the full suite of enterprise routing protocols and can serve as a VPN hub or spoke, enforce QoS policies for voice traffic, and apply zone-based firewall policies — all within a desktop enclosure that requires no rack space. It is an ideal fit for medium branch offices, retail sites, and SD-WAN-ready deployments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes dual SIM useful in a router?

Dual SIM lets you use two different mobile carriers. If one network goes down, the router automatically switches to the backup SIM — providing carrier diversity for critical branch connectivity without manual intervention.

How many devices can I connect directly?

The router has 8 GbE LAN ports for wired connections. Additional devices can be added via a downstream switch.

Is this compatible with NBN FTTN services?

Yes. The integrated VDSL2 modem connects directly to the NBN FTTN network via a standard telephone line.

Does it support VPN?

Yes. The C1111-8PLTE supports IPSec, SSL VPN, and DMVPN under Cisco IOS XE for site-to-site and remote-access VPN deployments.

Is a SIM card included?

No. A compatible SIM card from an Australian LTE carrier must be supplied separately.

How is shipping handled?

Shipping costs apply based on size and destination — rates are calculated at checkout.

What does the 12-month warranty cover?

All hardware defects and functional failures. Units are factory-reset and tested before dispatch.
