Secure VPN Router, 6 x 10/100/1000 LAN / WAN incl 2 x SFP Combo ports, 1x Async, 2x PIC slot

The AT-AR770S is the first Allied Telesis router to offer gigabit connectivity for both the LAN switch and WAN Ethernet ports. Eth0 and Eth1 are combo ports. This means that they can make use of an SFP instead of the standard copper RJ-45 connection. Both the SFP and RJ-45 physical ports are managed by the same interface IC, providing a single 'port' with two connectivity options. When using an SFP port on the AT-AR770S, the corresponding RJ-45 port is disabled. However, when the SFP transceiver is removed, the RJ-45 port becomes operational again. The AT-AR770S has been designed with the needs of small to medium enterprises/businesses or branch office businesses in mind. The AT-AR770S offers significant advances in processing performance, Quality of Service (QoS), routing, remote connectivity, and security. The AT-AR770S provides extensive IPSec-based VPN capability, allowing the interconnection of offices, remote tele-workers, and other users who require secure access to a corporate network. The integrated hardware acceleration, standard on the AT-AR770S, maximizes encryption throughput and removes the need to purchase a hardware upgrade package. The AT-AR770S is compatible with industry standard IPSec VPN clients.
