	Industrial Security Router	Weidmüller Industrial Security Routers Secure networks Stateful packet inspection Firewall IP/Port- forwarding Network segmentation Easy integration of machine networks into manufacturing networks through 1: 1 NAT Secure and easy remote maintenance with Weidmüller u-link remote access service Enable modular and future proof network architectures with static and dynamic routing Secure communication over the Internet by using IPsec and OpenVPN Reliable internet connection, even without on-site internet access, thanks to integrated 4G/LTE cellular modem Full flexibility thanks to Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces ranging from 2 up to 4 ports.

	u-link Remote Access Service	The Weidmüller u-link remote access service offers an easy possibility to securely access ethernet devices in a remote network. With the u-link VPN Server as the central meeting point server, the VPN clients (service PC and Weidmüller u-link client devices) always connect outbound and thus conform to the typical IT security requirements. Separate database and server instances are used for each u-link customer account (secure client isolation) to ensure data integrity. Communication between the u-link VPN server and remote clients (service PCs and u-link client devices) takes place via a certificate-protected openVPN connection. The u-link creed is "configuration instead of programming" the use is intuitive and does not require expert knowledge. Featureset: 1-click VPN remote access for service PC's easyAccess: web, rdp or vnc connections to remote hosts fully browser based for use with tablet or smartphone Organization and Group Management Topologies including 3rd party end-devices Firmware management: Display of firmware status of all routers and the option of a time-controlled, automated firmware update Individual access rights: granular configuration of access rights to devices in the target network Extensive event log: Presentation of all activities in the u-link portal with extensive filter and export functions Password policy: Increased security through configurable specification of minimum requirements for password quality and validity period Weidmüller offers the following usage variations and additional options for the u-link Remote Access Service: Basic version: Automatically assigned by registering at u-link.weidmueller.com Free use for 6 months, extended to 365 days when registering a new u-link client device Full featureset Unlimited users Max. 50 u-link capable devices (access points to a remote network) 1 simultaneous VPN connection No data or speed limitations (subject to normal market usage) Extensions Additional 50/100/250/500/1000 or more u-link capable devices Additional simultaneous VPN connections China-VPN: secure and reliable VPN connection to and from China

	Media converter and protocol gateways ValueLine media converter Serial/Ethernet converter and Modbus TCP/RTU gateway Serial/Ethernet Converter	Our media converters and protocol gateways enhance the connectivity and integration of your network infrastructure. Whether you need to convert different media types, connect serial devices to Ethernet, or enable communication between Modbus protocols, we have the right solution. Media Converters enable conversion between fiber optic and copper Ethernet for long-distance data transmission and increased network flexibility. They offer high performance and support various speeds and standards, ensuring compatibility with your existing network, and are robust for use in harsh environments. Serial/Ethernet Converters connect serial devices to an Ethernet network for remote management and data collection. They support multiple serial protocols for seamless integration and are easy to configure. Modbus TCP/RTU Gateways translate the Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU protocols and vice versa to enable seamless data exchange. They ensure robust, secure data transmission and are designed for industrial applications.
