Welcome to the boards!
Don't know how helpful this will be to you but I really couldn't find anything (yet) on the web.
[quoteurl=http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/pcat/1400.htm]The Cisco 1400 series is a new generation of DSL routers-powered by Cisco IOS software, for small and medium-sized businesses and small branch offices of enterprises.
The Cisco 1400 series offers high-speed internet and intranet access with advanced security, high quality-of-service, ease-of-use, and management. The Cisco 1400 series is a key part of Cisco`s comprehensive end-to-end DSL networking solutions.
The Cisco 1401 router features a 10BaseT Ethernet interface and an ATM25 interface, which allows connectivity to an ATM cell-based WAN infrastructure. The ATM25 interface provides an external demarcation point as required by many telcos and can be combined with an external ATM25 (ADSL) modem to provide high-speed Internet/intranet access up to 8 Mbps.
The Cisco 1417 router features a 10Base-T Ethernet interface and an integrated ADSL DMT modem, with integrated ATM capabilities. The Cisco 1417 can be connected to DSL Access Multiplexors (DSLAMs) which implement the ANSI ADSL DMT Issue-2 specification, such as the Alcatel DMT issue 2 DSLAMs.

Manageable via SNMP (CiscoView, CiscoWorks2000 (available in 12.0(6)T)), Telnet, and through console port
Key Element of Cisco End-to-End DSL Network
Cisco IOS QoS services allow you to implement services and policies that can maximize revenue generated and saved per unit of bandwidth capacity. Traffic classes and prioritization allow a network operator to encourage customers to classify their traffic and then transport the highest value bits during peak usage and heavy congestion periods.
These benefits enable new classes of multimedia applications that integrate data, voice, and video. Cisco 1400 series routers are ideally suited for applications such as:
High-speed Internet/intranet access
Secure access with a Cisco IOS Firewall
Multimedia/multicast applications such as video on demand (VoD), desktop Video conferencing, and distance learning
Virtual private networks (VPNs)
Cisco 1400 series routers run Cisco IOS software, the unifying thread that differentiates Cisco DSL internetworking solutions.
Its value-added Layer 2 and Layer 3 intelligence enables provisioning of managed DSL services such as VPN, while maintaining the security and data integrity for the internetwork. And Cisco IOS software is a flexible vehicle for adding new services, features, and applications to the internetwork.
The familiar Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI) leverages the experience and training of most enterprises and service providers.
Product Positioning — For small and medium-sized businesses or small branch offices that need to connect seamlessly and securely to the Internet or to corporate networks, the Cisco 1400 series routers provide high-performance connectivity from Ethernet to an ATM cell-based DSL wide area network.
Cisco provides the broadest CPE portfolio in the DSL marketplace, offering the Cisco 605/6 PCI NIC, Cisco 633 SDSL DSU, Cisco 627 ATM25 ADSL modem, Cisco 677 SOHO/Telecommuter ADSL Router, Cisco 1400 series small office routers and Cisco 2600/3600 ATM25 network module.
Cisco`s broad portfolio of DSL CPE enables service providers to deliver cost-effective DSL solutions targeted at every category of end-user, including branch office, small and medium-sized business, SOHO, telecommuter, and consumer markets.
