Security Routers - TC mGuard

Industrial Wireless Router

4G Industrial Wireless Routers  -  USA, Canada, and Global

Industrial 4G LTE security appliance, router, and VPN gateway.

The TC MGUARD RS2000 and RS4000 security appliances are industrial mobile network routers with mGuard technology. As such, the routers offer a remote maintenance infrastructure for the secure connection of machines and systems via the Internet. A high-speed mobile network interface and a 4-port switch are integrated into a compact metal housing. Secure remote communication on a global scale takes place via 4G LTE as well as UMTS and CDMA networks. With the help of an SD card as a configuration memory, the devices can be quickly and easily started up or replaced. The devices have a buffered real-time clock and Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for secure key generation and management.

SMS support is one of this product’s strongest features, allowing you to monitor certain digital alarms and obtain text messages based on input changes. It provides SMS functionality based on other alarms, such as loss of network connection via a wired interface (only TC 4000), VPN status, and other alarm notifications.

The TC mGuard RS4000 focuses on the highest level of availability for the system. It allows for a physical wired connection with the failsafe transition over to cellular networks in case of loss of connectivity.

Security Router TC mGuard Details

• Central management tool
• Easy integration with integrated Ethernet switch
• Compatible with mGuard Secure Remote Service
• Virtual Private Network - Secure and easy remote maintenance enables you to save on travel costs and shorten downtime, as well as improve service quality and customer loyalty. mGuard devices are VPN-compatible: All data is encrypted according to the secure IPsec standard. Access to the remote maintenance VPN tunnel is monitored and controlled by a firewall. In addition, machines and systems can be conveniently and easily networked using extensive routing functions.
• Cellular - When sites are located in areas where a physical connection is difficult to obtain, the mGuard can provide connectivity via cellular networks around the world. The TC mGuard supports Verizon, AT&T, and international cellular carriers utilizing the latest 4G LTE technology. Utilizing carrier networks, you can access your remote sites easily and securely.
• Powerful Firewall - mGuard devices are integrated into the network as a stand-alone system where they protect a part of the system network, a complete production cell, or an individual automation component – with no adverse effect on the system being protected. All incoming and outgoing data packets are monitored using pre-defined rules. These mGuard devices have a built-in stateful firewall for local device protection and Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) firewalls for some popular industrial protocols.
• ComServer - In the industrial space, un-networked legacy systems are still very common. The built-in ComServer functionality allows access to serial devices using the RS232 interface, even over the mGuard Secure Cloud.
• Router - mGuard can be used in router mode to isolate an office network from a control network, regulating the traffic that is passing through. NAT (Network Address Translation) router When identical machines are in a network in parallel, each machine must be configured individually so that it can be integrated into the higher-level communication system. Our mGuard products support the 1:1 NAT function, which means that production cells occupying an identical IP address can be used in a higher-level network. The individual configuration of standard machines is not required, saving time and making support easier.
