Amplicon has introduced the DX series of industrial routers, which provide a highly reliable and rugged layer 3 networking system for a range of mission-critical applications. The routers have fibre-optic, Ethernet and serial (RS232/422/485) connectivity options as well as built in support for Modbus TCP to Modbus serial conversion and network redundancy through RSTP-2004. Each is capable of operating at temperatures from -40 to +85°C and comes with professional mounting options such as DIN-rail and rackmount as appropriate.
The DX series has extensive routing and firewall functions that allow them to act as a gateway between a corporate and industrial LAN .
The DX900 and DX1000 have one and two WAN ports respectively. These can provide a WAN connection over a DDS or E1/T1 link enabling remote access directly across a WAN link.
