Need “must work” for Portable Kiosks & Mobile Offices?

For those who need to support First Responders with No Compromise communications or track your important cargo on the go, you need the Cisco 819 ISR. Cisco IoS Mobile IP in the small 819 ISR form factor allows users and devices to keep the same IP address, stay connected, and maintain ongoing applications while roaming between IP networks.

Mobile IP is scalable for the Internet because it is based on IP. Any media that can support IP can support Mobile IP. In fact, Cisco Mobile IP allows an entire subnet or mobile network to maintain connectivity to the home network while roaming. This transparent roaming across multiple wireless networks in wide geographic areas provides unparalleled support for Mobile Fleet Management applications of the 819.

Whether in First Responders (police, medical, etc.), terrestrial delivery fleets, or air delivery fleets the 819 provides Mobile IP connectivity to get the job done!

Geo Fencing

Ensuring assets “don’t walk” is critical to asset monitoring and asset security. Equipped with a GPS antenna option the 819 provides unparalleled “Geo Fencing” capabilities. If you need to ensure assets don’t leave a specific area Geo Fencing can monitor asset position and, if outside of the prescribed area, disable the 819.

Or, if you need to know where mobile assets are at any time, 819 GPS capabilities can provide up to date information and related piece of mind.

Simply stated, for those who need No Compromise mobile IoT application support, you need the Cisco 819 ISR!

Configure, De-bug & Survey via Text Message

Bolstering ease of configuration, with added no compromise extensibility to remotely customize services, the 819 ISR offers Cisco IOS ® Embedded Event Manager (EEM).

EEM is a unique subsystem within Cisco IOS Software that allows customers to harness the significant intelligence within Cisco IOS Software to respond to real-time events, automate tasks, create customized commands, and take local automated action based on conditions detected by the Cisco IOS Software.

Custom programs or scripts, referred to as EEM policies, can be programmed using a simple Command-Line-Interface (CLI)-based interface or using a scripting language called Tool Command Language (Tcl).

Save a truck roll and create customize applications at any time. Use text messaging as a method to retrieve ISR LTE interface status, radio signal strength/quality, GPS coordinates (geographical location), and ping results. Or use your browser to view the location of any of the ISRs in your network.

Several scripts already exist to support ease of provisioning, and platform and mobile management via SMS. Examples of existing scripts can be found in Cisco ISR Best Practices for Verizon Wireless LTE, also known as The Guide.

Additionally, more information on EEM, including additional scripts and an ecosystem of partners who can help you create additional scripts can be found here.

Simple Out of Band Management

Superior management capabilities such as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) support for 3G MIB with 4G MIB and Out of Band Management further 819 deployment and management ease.

Leading Out of Band management capabilities yield lower cost and higher performance via:

Faster device image downloads
Faster log/debugging uploads and
