Branch-office WAN router

The Nortel Secure Router 1002 is a compact desktop appliance built for enterprise branch offices and remote sites. It delivers high-performance WAN access with integrated T-carrier support and Fast Ethernet connectivity. The unit includes four ports with two active 10/100Base-TX interfaces and a dedicated management port. It ships new and ready for deployment in space-constrained environments.

Passive cooling and low power draw

The desktop form factor operates without internal fans, relying on passive thermal dissipation across its 1.3-inch height, 8.6-inch width and 6.5-inch depth. An external AC adapter supplies power, keeping the chassis silent and the heat load minimal at approximately 1.50 lb. This design suits always-on operation in offices, cabinets or equipment shelves where noise and power budgets are tight.

Plug-and-play integration

The router fits directly onto a desk or shelf without rack rails or special mounting hardware. Its four-port layout provides WAN, LAN and management connections in one box, freeing up separate switches or media converters. The AC adapter plugs into a standard mains outlet, so no dedicated power distribution unit is required. Buyers who need more than two active Ethernet ports or a different WAN interface will need additional equipment.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Nortel 1002 on a desktop and which step is often missed?

Place the 1.3" high, 8.6" wide, 6.5" deep unit on a stable surface, connect the AC adapter, then link the two active 10/100Base-TX ports and the T1 WAN port; the step often missed is securing the management port cable for initial configuration.

What maintenance or replacement will the Nortel 1002 need later?

The AC adapter is the only field-replaceable part; the desktop chassis has no fan or user-serviceable modules, so plan to swap the external power supply if it fails after extended use.

What limit appears first on the Nortel 1002 under sustained load?

The two active 10/100Base-TX ports cap throughput at 100 Mbps each, so sustained WAN traffic will hit that bandwidth ceiling before the 1.50 lb desktop platform reaches any thermal or processing constraint.
