Contemporary Controls' EIGR IP routers allow you to create a virtual private network (VPN) that provides secure access to remote job sites while giving you the flexibility to monitor and maintain systems from the convenience of your home or office.
The EIGR, acting as a VPN server, is installed in your office with direct Internet access. An EIGR, acting as a VPN client, is installed at each job site. The EIGR client can be behind firewalls and use wired or cellular networks to communicate with the EIGR VPN server. Once installed, the IP routers provide a secure VPN connection between each other, thereby providing you with secure, remote access to the job site.
The EIGR series of IP and VPN routers add Gigabit ports for faster speeds and higher data throughput. The EIGR-E is a wired router while the EIGR-V router adds OpenVPN server/client. As a VPN Server, up to 15 router clients and 15 PC clients can be supported by EIGR-V in routed mode. The EIGR-VB differs from EIGR-V as it uses bridge mode as a VPN server with up to 10 clients. The EIGR operates over 0 to 60°C or −40 to +75°C, depending on the model.
The EIGR IP VPN router family consists of wired secure VPN client/server features (EIGR-V), and cellular with secure VPN client features (EIGR-C) models. Contemporary Controls' IP routers have been successfully used in Robotics, Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), Packaging, Scientific Equipment, and more.
Using Contemporary Controls' IP routers simplifies communication over the Internet while maintaining security.
