Cisco ISR 800 Series — End-of-Life & EOSL Dates
The Cisco ISR 800 Series is a router in Cisco's ISR product line. End-of-sale and end-of-service-life dates are listed by part number below, each linked to the Cisco EOL bulletin.
Cisco ISR 800 Series has mixed lifecycle status. Some SKU groups are already past Cisco end of service while others run until Jan 2027. Confirm the exact part number before any support or refresh decision. For past-EOSL units, weigh third-party maintenance, spares, replacement, or a documented run-to-failure. Cisco’s named migration path: Cisco IR1101 / Catalyst IR1821 Rugged Series / Cisco ISR 1100 / 900 Series.

Options from here
3 Cisco ISR 800 Series part numbers are past Cisco end of service while 5 remain supported (to Jan 2027). For the past-EOSL units, these are the usual paths:
Keep it in production past the OEM cutoff with an independent maintainer.
Buy spares now, while units still circulate on the secondary market.
It is unsupported today. Set a migration timeline and budget.
Low-criticality role: document the risk, harden backups, retire on your terms.
Independent and informational. EOSL.ai sells no hardware and no maintenance, and lists no paid placements. Third-party maintenance keeps unsupported gear in production past the OEM cutoff; whether it fits depends on the role the asset plays.
