CISCO1750

This Product Bulletin serves as the formal notification of the End of Sales (EoS), End of Engineering, and End of Life (EoL) for Cisco 1750, Cisco 1750-2V, and Cisco 1750-4V router models along with associated spares and bundles. The replacement product is the Cisco 1751 Modular Access Router. All Cisco 1750 customers are advised to transition to the Cisco 1751, which offers new features, higher performance, and twice the default memory for the same price (see Table 1 for Cisco 1750 and Cisco 1751 feature comparisons). Table 2 lists Cisco 1750 SKUs affected by the End-of-Sale announcement. Key dates for EOS/EOL are detailed in Table 3. The replacement products are detailed in Table 4.

The Cisco 1750 has won many industry awards and had offered a platform to converge voice and data networks for small and medium-sized business (SMB) and enterprise small branch office customers. The introduction of the Cisco 1751 has taken the successes of the Cisco 1750 to the next level, leading to the EOS of the Cisco 1750 platform. Reasons for this action include:
•Customers have demonstrated clear preference for Cisco 1751 since its introduction, leading to a dramatic decrease in Cisco 1750 sales


•New Cisco IOS images with voice features will require memory beyond the maximum available memory


•Manufacturers are discontinuing some components used in the Cisco 1750



The Cisco 1751, introduced in May 2001, delivers new features, higher performance, and more memory at the same price as the Cisco 1750. Table 1 details the advantages of the Cisco 1751 platform.
