 Small Networks

Solution 1
A private small business would range Two to Twenty PCs scale in a single office. It is an easy
network that Cisco would provide a cheap but stable Router and a 24 ports Switch (you can
replace it by a 48-port one, of course). It's also easy to configure.

Devices:

Model Description

CISCO1921-SEC/K9 Cisco 1921 Security Bundle w/SEC license PAK

WS-C2960+24TC-L Fast Ethernet switch, 24 x 10/100 ports and 2 x T/SFPZ uplinks

Solution 2
It is designed for someone who has a harsher environment to keep the network stable and
safe. Adding an ASA to your network would provide a more powerful function of safety to
meet your need.

Devices:

Model Description

ASA5506-K9 ASA 5506-X with FirePOWER services, 8GE, AC, 3DES/AES

Cisco 1941 w/2 GE,2 EHWIC slots,256MB CF,512MB DRAM, IP

 Medium Networks

Solution 3
About 100 clients may distribute at several offices that a Distribution Layer Switch added to
your network responsible for forwarding can make things clear. Adding SFP (fiber) module
also makes your network faster and unimpeded.

Devices:

Model Description

CISCO1941-SEC/K9 Cisco 1941 Security Bundle w/SEC license PAK

WS-C3650-24TS-L Cisco Catalyst 3650 24 Port Data 4x1G Uplink LAN Base

WS-C2960X-48TS-L Catalyst 2960-X 48 GigE, 4 x 1G SFP, LAN Base

EHWIC-1GE-SFP-CU EHWIC 1 port dual mode SFP(100M/1G) or GE(10M/100M/1G)

CISCO1941-SEC/K9 needs to install EHWIC-1GE-SFP-CU to get one 10/100/1000 Base-T
port and one dual mode SFP port.
Besides, GLC and Fiber Patch are necessary, which make the router possible to connect the
switch through SFP port.

Solution 4
You have important business that you need powerful Firewall and IP Phones or other video
devices working?

Devices:

Model Description

ASA5515-K9 ASA 5515-X with SW, 6GE Data, 1GE Mgmt, AC, 3DES/AES

C3850-NM-4-1G Cisco Catalyst 3850 4 x 1GE Network Module

WS-C2960X-48TS-L Catalyst 2960-X 48 GigE, 4 x 1G SFP, LAN Base

WS-C2960+24PC-L Catalyst 2960 Plus 24 10/100 PoE + 2 T/SFP LAN Base

CP-7841-K9 Cisco UC Phone 7841

CISCO2951-V/K9 is a Cisco 2951 router with Voice Bundle, PVDM3-32 and UC License PAK.
This bundle is important because you should use it to deploy a Cisco Unified Communication
Network. VWIC3-1MFT-T1/E1 must install in this router.
C3850-NM-4-1G is a network module for WS-C3850-24T-L, that makes the switch connect
with other devices.
Besides, a POE switch, WS-C2960+24PC-L, makes it possible to connect the IP Phone because
CP-7841-K9 doesnt support power supply. It must be powered by POE switches.

The modules, cards and GLCs are like solution 4, installed in the routers and switches.
Especially, the WS-C3850-12S-S offers 12 SFP ports so that it neednt GLC.
