FAQs

Q: What is the difference between the C8225-G2 and C8221-G2?
A: Both models share identical port configurations with 2x 1/10GE SFP+ and 8x 1GE RJ-45 ports and offer similar throughput performance. The C8225-G2 includes 16GB of memory, making it suitable for more memory-intensive deployments, while both feature dual power supply redundancy and post-quantum Secure Boot for enhanced security.

Q: Does the C8225-G2 support Power over Ethernet?
A: No, the C8225-G2 does not include PoE capabilities. For PoE support on 8200 Series routers, consider the C8231-G2 or C8235-G2 models which offer integrated PoE+ on select ports along with cellular module slots.

Q: Can this router run as an SD-WAN edge device?
A: Yes, the C8225-G2 is designed for SD-WAN deployments and can be managed via Catalyst SD-WAN cloud management or on-premises controllers. It supports IPsec tunneling, QoS, path selection, and application-aware routing with hardware-accelerated encryption and deep packet inspection.

Q: What type of transceivers are compatible with the SFP+ ports?
A: The 2x 1/10GE SFP+ ports support both 1GE and 10GE Cisco-compatible SFP and SFP+ transceivers, including multimode and single-mode fiber optics for flexible WAN connectivity options.

Q: Is the C8225-G2 suitable for noise-sensitive environments?
A: Yes, the C8225-G2 features a fanless design, making it ideal for quiet office environments, retail locations, or space-constrained branch deployments where noise reduction and lower maintenance are priorities.
