Cisco® IR829 Industrial Integrated Services Routers are ruggedized integrated services
routers designed for deployment in harsh industrial environments.
The IR829 Industrial Integrated Services Routers (IR829) have a compact form factor, multimode 4G LTE and
3G wireless WAN (dual active LTE and single LTE models), IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN, Ethernet (RJ45 and
SFP), serial connections, integrated storage and compute capability for edge application hosting, and integrated
9-32 VDC power input. The IR829 also extends the connectivity to include Low Power Wide-Area (LPWA)
access using Cisco Interface Module for LoRaWANTM. With it, you can rapidly deploy a wide variety of Internet
of Things (IoT) solutions, including fleet management, mass transit, and remote asset monitoring. The 829
routers are designed to withstand hostile environments including shock, vibration, and humidity, as well as a
wide temperature range (-40°C to +60°C and type-tested at +85°C for 16 hours). The IR829 brings together
enterprise-grade wireline-like services such as Quality of Service (QoS), Cisco advanced VPN technologies
(DMVPN and Flex VPN) and multi-VRF for WAN, highly secure data, voice, and video communications and
Cisco IOx, an open, extensible environment for hosting applications at the network edge.

The Cisco IR829 Industrial Integrated Services Routers support Mobile IP delivering transparent roaming across
multiple wireless networks capable of covering wide geographic areas; additionally, the IR829 supports
enterprise- class built-in Wireless LAN (WLAN) capability with Autonomous and Unified mode options. The
802.11a/b/g/n 2X2 MIMO built in the IR829 creates a self-healing, self-optimizing WLAN. Moreover, with the
advantage of dual radio, the integrated access point can serve as both an access point and a client to a
wireless mesh network. This combined functionality provides another source for WAN diversity along with
Gigabit Ethernet and cellular. The Cisco ClientLink feature of the access point improves reliability and coverage
for legacy devices and Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) enables radar detection and avoidance to comply
with regulatory domains. The IR829 concurrently supports both 4G LTE wireless WAN and Cisco dual-radio
WLAN backhaul on the same platform.
The Cisco IR829 Industrial Integrated Services Routers offer a broad range of features for industrial and
enterprise IoT:
Dual active LTE connectivity. With two LTE modems, the IR829 enables concurrent connectivity
to two cellular networks for high reliability, enhanced data throughputs, load balancing, and
differentiated services. Applicable for IR829M-2LTE and IR829-2LTE
Integrated Integrated compute and storage for edge application. The integrated SSD storage comes in two
options - 50 GB and 100 GB - and is industrial-grade storage.
Auto SIM: SIM-based auto-carrier selection. Automatically configure a modem carrier based on
the inserted SIM.
Integrated Dual SIM: Dual SIMs on Single LTE IR829 provides the option to have two service providers. Only
one operator is active at a time.
Accelerometer and gyroscope to monitor speed and angular momentum for automotive
applications and to detect tampering.
Integrated Ignition Power Management to keep the router up even when the vehicle ignition is turned off.

GPS to enable real-time location tracking of remote assets.
Integrated Network management tools such as Cisco IoT Field Network Director, Cisco Prime, and APIC-EM
simplify deployment of a secure network head-end using the Cisco Industrial Operations Kit.
Security services, such as hardware cryptography, including Cisco’s Next Generation Encryption
(https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/about/security-center/next-generation-cryptography.html) that
guarantees high performance for IPsec VPN traffic and firewall. Requires no additional hardware or
client software. With these security services, fleet vehicle management and mass transit systems,
for example, can intelligently redirect web traffic to the cloud to enforce granular security and
acceptable use policies over user web traffic. With this solution, businesses can deploy the
market-leading web security solution quickly and easily to protect assets from web-based threats,
such as viruses, while saving bandwidth, money, and resources.
Additional WAN options, such as Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet WAN interface with ruggedized
SFP options and a 4-port 10/100/1000 Ethernet managed switch with an optional module for
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) LAN connectivity enable seamless connectivity to IP based devices
such as cameras, sensors and Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs).
Provides an open, extensible environment for hosting OS and applications at the network edge
rather than in the Cloud
4G LTE wireless WAN (WWAN) data services. With enhanced data rates and improved latency
(30 milliseconds or less), WWAN services provide an ideal way to supplement traditional wire-line
services. The single LTE model of the IR829 supports peak data rates of 100 Mbps on the
downlink and 50 Mbps on the uplink. The dual LTE model doubles the throughput by supporting
peak data rates of 150 Mbps on the downlink and 50 Mbps on the uplink on each of the two
cellular links. Actual data speed depends on the service provider network. With single and dual 4G
LTE options, the IR829s offer a flexible, redundant cellular connectivity for mission critical services.
The 4G LTE WWAN data services can also be used as a cost-effective alternative in areas where
broadband services are either not available or very expensive.
Multiple-PDN (Packet Data Network) feature allows the router to connect to different Access
Point Names (APN) enabling traffic segregation. For example, public internet traffic can be kept
separate from mission critical traffic emerging from the sensors and devices connected to the
router.
4G LTE multiple-bearer QoS for cellular. The IR829 supports 4G LTE multiple bearers enabling
differentiated treatment of traffic based on the QoS policies. The QoS feature depends on a
service provider’s ability to classify and enforce QoS policies and hence requires providers to
launch this service in their networks.
Multi-VRF. The IR829s support multi-VRF feature that allows customer to configure and maintain
more than one instance of a routing and forwarding table within the same Customer Edge (CE)
device. For service providers, this feature enables them to support two or more Virtual Private
Networks (VPNs), where the IP addresses can overlap several VPNs.

Business benefits and application examples
IoT gives the transportation industry an opportunity to connect people, improve safety, communicate more
effectively, and change transportation centers into community hubs. The IR829 offers the automotive industry -
including commercial fleets, emergency-response and public safety vehicles, rail, and roadways - standards-
based, scalable, and highly secure solutions.
Fleet vehicles
The IR829 can withstand severe weather and environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures, high
vibrations, and shocks often encountered on buses and trains. The IR829s use standards-based Mobile IP
features in Cisco IOS® Software to host networks in motion. Transitioning to different wireless networks is
transparent to users and devices (such as laptops, smart devices, sensors and cameras), and applications
maintain continuous connectivity without the manual intervention of users as WAN links change. In addition to
allowing a single node or device to stay connected, the IR829 4G LTE routers allow an entire mobile network or
subnet to stay connected. The dual-radio 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz WLAN on the IR829 can serve as both a client
and an access-point. Our products also help transit operators effectively track vehicle fleets through built-in
GPS systems.
Mass transit
Public-safety personnel can move critical video data and other sensitive information from incident commanders
to field officers over a secure network, giving public safety agencies and their personnel access to real-time,
multimedia data in the field. This access helps agencies increase cost efficiencies, provide better response
time, and improve safety and security.
Asset management
Organizations can now remotely monitor and manage assets by connecting the asset with an IR829 over LTE
WAN. The dual LTE capability of IR829 enables wireless WAN redundancy, improved coverage, and increased
bandwidth for the asset. Integrating with Cisco’s video surveillance solution provides remote surveillance of
these assets. Centralized monitoring and control of assets using the IR829 helps organizations lower their cost
of operations, identify issues remotely, and take meaningful actions.
