Powerful 5G NR and Wi-Fi 6 Enterprise Network Solution
The innovation of the Internet has created tremendous worldwide opportunities for e-business and information sharing. It has become essential for businesses to focus more on network security issues. The demand for information security and wireless connetion has become the primary concern for the enterprises. To fulfill this demand, PLANET has launched the all-in-one VR-300FW-NR 5G NR Cellular + Wi-Fi 6 VPN Security Router. It is able to provide ultra-fast broadband access with 5G cellular network. The VR-300FW-NR also features five Ethernet ports (4 LANs and 1 LAN/WAN), one Fiber port (LAN/WAN), IEEE 11ax Wi-Fi capability, and VPN technology bundled in a compact yet rugged metal case. It establishes a fast cellular connection between the Ethernet equipped devices. The VR-300FW-NR is an integrated 5G NR and Wi-Fi 6 solution for System Integrators, ISPs and Enterprises.
The VR-300FW-NR also carries several main categories across your network security deployments: Copper/fiber WAN interface, cybersecurity, SPI firewall security protection, policy auditing (content filtering, VPN tunnel and MAC/IP filtering), AP controller, captive portal, RADIUS and easy management (Setup Wizard, DHCP Server and Dashboard). Furthermore, its Dual-WAN Failover, Outbound Load Balance and High-Availability features can improve the network efficiency while the web-based interface provides friendly and consistent user experience.
Automatic Failover between 5G NR and Dual WAN
Designed with 5G NR, dual WAN interfaces (fiber and copper), 1000X SFP and Gigabyte Ethernet, the VR-300FW-NR ensures Internet connectivity by featuring failover functionality between 5G NR and dual WAN. It provides flexibilty to set priority for 5G NR or dual WAN connection. When the main WAN interface fails, the secondary WAN interface will automatically back up the connection to ensure always-on connectivity.
Ultra-Fast Speed 4G/5G Network*
The VR-300FW-NR supports 5G NR DL (downlink) speeds higher than 2.4 Gbps and 4G LTE DL speeds of up to 1 Gbps. The wide spectrum bandwidth accelerates internet speeds and reduces network latency for premium and time-sensitive connectivity services. It also supports multi-band connectivity including LTE FDD/TDD and WCDMA for a wide range of applications.
*The real 5G NR/4G LTE data rate is dependent on local service provider.
GPS Included
The VR-300FW-NR is equipped with (global positioning system) feature. It adapts 5G-NR technology to incorporate multiple global navigation systems (GPS/GLONASS/BeiDou/Galileo/QZSS). It helps to position location of cellular gateway based on a network of satellites that continuously transmits necessary data. More signals transmitted from more satellites can triangulate its location on the ground, meaning any location can be easily tracked.
Flexible WAN interface Enables Extension of Network Deployment
The VR-300FW-NR provides both copper and fiber connectors for WAN interface. With one SFP slot, it supports fiber extension for FTTX application. It allows the administrator to flexibly choose the suitable SFP transceiver according to the transmission distance required to extend the network efficiently. The distance can be extended from 550 meters to 2 kilometers (multi-mode fiber) and 10/20/30/40/50/60/70/120 kilometers (single-mode fiber or WDM fiber). They are well suited for applications to uplink to backbone switch and monitoring center in long distance.
Wireless 11ax Brings Excellent Data Link Speed
The VR-300FW-NR is designed with high power amplifier and 2 highly-sensitive antennas which provide stronger signal and excellent coverage even in the wide-ranging or bad environment. With adjustable transmit power option, the administrator can flexibly reduce or increase the output power for various environments, thus reducing interference to achieve maximum performance. Equipped with the next-generation Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) wireless network standard, the total bandwidth reaches 1800Mbps, and the 2-stream transmission technology improves the transmission efficiency of multiple devices, making AR/VR/IoT applications smoother. The IEEE 802.11ax also optimizes MU-MIMO (Multi-User MIMO) mechanism to serve multiple devices simultaneously.
Wi-Fi Deployments and Authentication with Simplified Management
The VR-300FW-NR provides a built-in AP Controller, Captive Portal, RADIUS and a DHCP server to facilitate small and medium businesses to deploy secure employee and guest access services without any additional server. The VR-300FW-NR can offer a secure Wi-Fi network with easy installation for your business.
Centralized Remote Control of Managed APs*
The VR-300FW-NR provides centralized management of PLANET Smart AP series via a user-friendly Web GUI. It’s easy to configure AP for the wireless SSID, radio band and security settings. With a four-step configuration process, different purposes of wireless profiles can be simultaneously delivered to multiple APs or AP groups to minimize deployment time, effort and cost.
For example, to configure multiple Smart APs of the same model, the VR-300FW-NR allows clustering them to a managed group for unified management. According to requirements, wireless APs can be flexibly expanded or removed from a wireless AP group at any time. The AP cluster benefits bulk provision and bulk firmware upgrade through single entry point instead of having to configure settings in each of them separately.
Ideal High-Availability VPN Security Router Solution for SMBs
The VR-300FW-NR provides complete data security and privacy for accessing and exchanging the most sensitive data, built-in IPSec VPN function with DES/3DES/AES encryption and MD5/SHA-1/SHA-256/SHA-384/SHA-512 authentication, and GRE, SSL, PPTP and L2TP server mechanism. The full VPN capability in the VR-300FW-NR makes the connection secure, more flexible, and more capable.
Excellent Ability in Threat Defense
The VR-300FW-NR with built-in SPI (stateful packet inspection) firewall and DoS/DDoS attack mitigation functions provides high efficiency and extensive protection for your network. Thus, virtual server and DMZ functions can let you set up servers in the Intranet and still provide services to the Internet users.
Cybersecurity Network Solution to Minimize Security Risks
The cybersecurity feature included to protect the switch management in a mission-critical network virtually needs no effort and cost to install. For efficient management, the VR-300FW-NR is equipped with HTTPS web and SNMP management interfaces. With the built-in web-based management interface, the VR-300FW-NR offers an easy-to-use, platform independent management and configuration facility. The VR-300FW-NR supports SNMP and it can be managed via any management software based on the standard SNMP protocol.
Maximizing Work Efficiency with PLANET SD-WAN Gateway
PLANET VR-300FW-NR incorporated in SD-WAN (software-defined wide area network) function can greatly increase WAN optimization for multiple WAN links to be managed. With SD-WAN, users can connect any application across all available network connections at every site. It improves application performance and provides a high-quality user experience for increasing business productivity and reducing IT costs.
Intelligent SFP Diagnosis Mechanism
The VR-300FW-NR supports SFP-DDM (digital diagnostic monitor) function that greatly helps network administrator to easily monitor real-time parameters of the SFP, such as optical output power, optical input power, temperature, laser bias current, and transceiver supply voltage.
