    Major Features & Specs

    From Cisco’s datasheets and documentation, here are the key technical and functional features for the 8200 Series.

    FeatureDescription
    ModelsTwo base models: C8235-G2 and C8231-G2.
    Targeted Use CasesMedium branch offices, regional retail, clinics, professional offices. WAN-edge with needs for integrated security and SD-WAN.
    Ports / Interfaces• Both models have 2 × 10 Gbps SFP/SFP+ WAN ports.
    • The C8235-G2 has more 2.5 Gbps “multigigabit” RJ-45 ports (some of which support PoE/PoE+) for LAN / WAN usage.
    • The C8231-G2 has a mix: fewer high-speed multigigabit ports, more 1 Gbps RJ-45 ports.
    Memory & Storage• C8235-G2: 16 GB DRAM and bootflash.
    • C8231-G2: 8 GB DRAM. Both have ~16 GB storage for bootflash etc.
    PoE / Power Output• Optional PoE / PoE+ support on certain ports (especially in C8235-G2).
    • PoE power budget for the C8235-G2 when equipped: ~ 120 W.
    • C8231-G2 has more modest PoE (if any), ~ 30 W in certain configurations.
    Performance / Throughput• Routing (non-security): ~ 19 Gbps forwarding for both models (512-byte packets).
    • IPsec throughput (512 byte): ~ 5 Gbps for both.
    • SD-WAN (with IPsec + QoS + DPI etc): ~ 4 Gbps for both.
    • Threat protection (NGFW / IPS / URL filtering etc): ~ 2.4 Gbps for C8235-G2, ~ 1 Gbps for C8231-G2.
    Form Factor / Physical• 1 RU fixed form factor; fanless design.
    • Natural convection cooling; requires ventilation clearance.
    • Universal AC input (≈ 100-240 VAC) power.
    Operating Conditions• Operating temp: ~ 0-40°C at sea level. Storage lower/higher.
    • Humidity non-condensing etc. Ventilation/altitude derating apply.
    Software / Security / Management• Runs IOS-XE.
    • Integrated Next-Gen Firewall, SD-WAN, cryptography, threat protection.
    • Quantum-resistant encryption readiness (“PQC readiness”) is indicated.
    • Flexible management options: local / cloud / SD-WAN manager.
