With ad-hoc networks emerging to deliver Internet Protocol (IP) based voice, video and data to users operating beyond the reach of a traditional fixed-network infrastructure, Cisco has unveiled its 5940 Embedded Services Router (ESR), a high-performance, ruggedised router for mobile and embedded networks that require IP routing and services.

It establishes a scalable mobile network in first-responder vehicles and extends organisational resources with a high degree of security to public safety employees in the field.

The 5940 ESR offers reliability in extreme temperatures and under shock and vibration conditions, providing secure data, voice and video communications to stationary and mobile network nodes (connection points) across wired and wireless links.
