Remote access removes boundaries, eliminates the need for time consuming site visits and provide a network infrastructure suitable for today’s “always-on” society. The DR-260 ADSL router uses the Internet to cost effectively inter-connect systems, allowing HMI, PLCs, sensors etc to communicate with each other.
The optional multiple media interfaces ensures high availability for critical applications. Mobile broadband (3G) in conjunction with ADSL protects against digging accidents or other issues that may occur in a wired environment.
Devices connected to the Internet require countermeasures towards cyber threats. The DR-260 offers protection of transmissions from malicious eavesdroppers via encrypted communication tunnels (VPN), access prevention from unauthorized addresses, and extensive logging to detect intrusion attempts. With an advanced and highly configurable firewall the unit is easily set up to only allow valid application data.
Certain carriers discontinue leased line service to its customers but that does not mean that the need for communication has changed.
The DR-260 with its built-in serial port offers a simple solution, modem replacement, with the benefit of not having to reprogram or change any other component.
The powerful software in the DR-260 offers methods to engineers to easily analyze the data-flow, valuable for fast troubleshooting of connected devices.
