Router throughput

[dkellerr]

Hi, we have 1 Gbps symmetrical internet connection.

And we are planning to buy Cisco ISR4321, however in specs I read that aggregate throughput is 50 to 100 Mbps. Can someone explain what does it mean?

Are we going to have 1Gbps or 50-100 Mbps at our servers network interface if our network look like this: [1Gbps Internet]------[Cisco 4321]------[Server]

Hi,

Simple and basic is that it can handle maximum 100 Mbps data by this router. If you wan speed is really 1Gbps (bandwidth) then it is not suitable for you.

Q: Are we going to have 1Gbps or 50-100 Mbps at our servers network interface if our network look like this: [1Gbps Internet]------[Cisco 4321]------[Server]

Ans: 50-100 Mbps 

I think Cisco router 4451 is good for you.

MSRP for Cisco ISR4321 is $1,995.00 and can handle maximum 100 Mbps.
NoName $150 home router easily handles 1Gbps internet connection
Can someone explain that as well?

Go HERE and HERE. See if the $150 has these features or not.

Oh, and in addition to features found on an ISR that aren't found on a $150 home router, if either device is found to have any "bugs", Cisco generally fixes theirs - the $150 home router's bugs may, or may not, be fixed.

Be assured businesses would much rather spend $150 than thousands, but they also like to insure the network is usable.
