Industrial 3G Routers Developed for Critical Infrastructure Systems



Westermo is proud to release two new industrial mobile broadband routers with improved features in its successful MRD-series



The Westermo MRD-315 and MRD-355 are robust 3G routers designed to provide resilient high-speed remote access across mobile networks. These two industrial mobile broadband routers have new improved features and are designed to replace the old MRD-310 and MRD-350.  New features like a dedicated GPS antenna port, faster downlink transfer rate, improved CPU and a next generation 3G module characterizes the new arrivals.



The new MRD-315 and MRD-355 provide a very high level of connectivity, and support many mobile standards including GSM, GPRS, EDGE, 3G UMTS, HSDPA and HSUPA allowing uplink transfer rates of up to 21.0 Mbit/s. Together with the compact and robust enclosure, DIN-rail mounting, a wide operating temperature specification between -40°C to +70°C, and an operating voltage range spanning from 10 VDC to 60 VDC, they are designed for industrial applications in harsh environments.

       

Both MRD-315 and MRD-355 provide a built-in two port 10/100 Ethernet switch and an RS-232 D-Sub, which easily allows any type of devices to seamlessly connect over a vast geographical distance. This means that anyone working with these industrial applications no longer needs to be present at the site instead these applications can now be managed, controlled and updated from across the globe. MRD-315 and MRD-355 reduce costs by eliminating the need for time consuming site visits as they provide safe and robust remote access. In today´s society cyber threats are a reality and the need for secure data communication is constantly growing. MRD-315 and MRD-355 both provide Virtual Private Network (VPN) functionalities. VPNs create secure tunnels over insecure networks, such as the Internet. The MRD-315 and MRD-355 also features a powerful packet inspection firewall that together with the VPN assures secure networks suitable for today’s connected society.
