Ruggedized | Hardened products are designed to withstand extreme conditions. Their casings provide protection from weather-related conditions and can act as a heat sink, directing high temperatures away from sensitive components. Hardened products use more reliable components than commercial products and are often used in telecommunications applications. | ||
VPN | A virtual private network (VPN) is a connection that has the appearance and many of the advantages of a dedicated link, but occurs over a shared network. Using a technique called tunneling, data packets are transmitted across a public, routed network in a private "tunnel" that simulates a point-to-point connection and allows network protocols to traverse incompatible infrastructures. | ||
Integrated Firewall | The network equipment has an integrated firewall for security. | ||
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) Ready | The device supports power over Ethernet (PoE) signals. Both data and power are delivered in one cable to a powered device (PD). | ||
Internet of Things (IoT) Compatible | The device is compatible with the Internet of Things (IoT) network. | ||
Layer 3 Capable | The network equipment is layer 3 capable, or has IP addressing, for smarter routing. | ||
