New router connects remotely

March 2008 Fieldbus & Industrial Networking

The Westermo ED-210 is an industrial Ethernet router with integrated 4-port Ethernet switch and telephone modem that can be configured for use in a number of different applications. As a basic PPP router using dial-in or dial-out the unit can be used to gain access to a remote Ethernet network. Security and passwords along with IP level firewall provides security.

The modem is equipped with transient protection on the line side and a watchdog that monitors and automatically resets the modem in the event of a fault. Configuration of the unit is simple, the Ethernet switch has auto-negotiation and all other settings use Windows based programming or the integrated Web tool. Galvanic isolation on all ports enables the device to be used in projects where a high degree of reliability is required. Features include:

* Integral V.34 telephone modem.

* Integral 4 port plug and play switch.

* Point-to-point application.

* Dial-up/leased line.

* Dial-in/dial-out.

* Dial on demand.

* Firewall.

* SNMP.

* Simple to use Windows-based configuration software or Web tool.

* Communication statistics.

* Wide DC operating range.

* Extended temperature -25 to +70°C.

* Enhanced surge and transient protection.
