5G NR Cellular Communication Solution

PLANET VR-300FW-NR adopts 5G NR cellular technology and thus breaks the 100m limitation of RJ45 transmission. To avoid data loss affected by an unexpected breakdown connection on the part of ISP, the VR-300FW-NR provides failover functions and advanced features like VLAN, VPN, Modbus, and network management to cover more applications.

Improving Network Efficiency

The VR-300FW-NR with five Gigabit ports (WAN/LAN) is applicable to the small number of users ranging from 60 to 100, using a 13-inch desktop design. It provides higher performance with all Gigabit Ethernet interfaces which offer faster speeds for your network applications. The Gigabit user-defined interfaces flexibly fulfill the network requirements, and the High-Availability and Dual-WAN interfaces enable the VR-300FW-NR to support outbound load balancing and WAN fail-over features.

Furthermore, the VR-300FW-NR can connect dual IPv4/v6 WANs with up to two different ISPs and supports many popular security features including Content Filtering to block specific URL feature that can automatically resolve the IP address corresponding to all. Users’ network can be easily managed by just typing the URL of the websites like Facebook, YouTube and Yahoo.

The VR-300FW-NR has link redundancy, MAC/IP filtering, outbound load balancing, QoS and many more functions to make the entire network system better. It creates a stable and qualified VPN security connection for many important applications such as VoIP, video conferencing and data transmission. The VR-300FW-NR’s economical price with complete network security management features makes it an inevitable choice for the next-generation office network load balancer.
