MPL firewall routers

Backplane Systems Technology has announced MPL’s range of firewall/router products specifically designed for industrial and defence applications where security, quality, reliability, low power consumption and long-term availability are key.

Possible applications are in remote monitoring and maintenance, secure communication in automation, and defence. The main features are wide-range 8–36 VDC power supply, fanless operation, operating temperature range of -40 to +85°C, three Gigabit Ethernet ports (RJ45, M12, D38999 or fibre), open frame, standard or MIL housing up to IP67 (wall, flange or rack mounting). There is the option of the integration of a managed switch, an mPCIe port for WLAN, GPRS etc, and EN50155 Class Tx (+85°C) certification.

MPL’s capability to offer copper ports as well as SFP ports for various fibre optical solutions makes the product universal. In addition, the unit provides an external available USB connector and a microSD memory card slot, allowing easy logging or configuration capabilities.

The devices can be supplied pre-installed with an adapted version of OpenWRT (www.openwrt.org). This Linux-based embedded distribution provides all functionality required for operation as an IPV4 and IPV6 firewall and router. Most of the configuration of the firmware installed can be done using a web-based interface. For more specialised requirements, a console-based configuration utility is available.
