Powerful Industrial VPN Security Solutionwith Fiber and PoE+ Capability

PLANET has launched the IVR-300FP Industrial VPN Security Gateway for demanding applications. It features five Ethernet ports (4 PoE LANs and 1 WAN/LAN), one Fiber port (WAN/LAN), serial port (RS485), and DI and DO interfaces. Incorporating SD-WAN function, it can greatly increase WAN optimization for multiple WAN links to be managed. Furthermore, its Dual-WAN Failover and Outbound Load Balance features can improve the network efficiency while the web-based interface provides friendly and user experience. 

It’s ideal for the harsh environment as it can operate stably at temperatures from -40 to 75 degrees C. Its compact IP30 metal case allows either DIN-rail or wall mounting for efficient use of cabinet space.

Flexible WAN interface Enables Extension of Network Deployment

The IVR-300FP provides both copper and fiber connectors for WAN interface. With one SFP slot, it supports fiber extension for FTTX application. It allows the administrator to flexibly choose the suitable SFP transceiver according to the transmission distance required to extend the network efficiently. The distance can be extended from 550 meters to 2 kilometers (multi-mode fiber) and 10/20/30/40/50/60/70/120 kilometers (single-mode fiber or WDM fiber). They are well suited for applications to uplink to backbone switch and monitoring center in long distance.

Intelligent SFP Diagnosis Mechanism

The IVR-300FP supports SFP-DDM (digital diagnostic monitor) function that greatly helps network administrator to easily monitor real-time parameters of the SFP, such as optical output power, optical input power, temperature, laser bias current, and transceiver supply voltage.

Built-in Unique PoE Functions for Powered Devices Management

The IVR-300FP is capable of having a maximum of up to 120 watts of power output and can deliver up to 36W for each port. It also features the following special PoE management functions.

PoE Usage Monitoring

With PoE usage monitoring, it can show the PoE loading of each port, total PoE power usage and system status, such as overload, low voltage, over voltage and high temperature. User can obtain detailed information about the real-time PoE working condition of the IVR-300FP directly.

PoE Schedule

Under the trend of energy saving worldwide and contributing to environmental protection, the IVR-300FP can effectively control the power supply besides its capability of giving high watts power. The “PoE schedule” function helps you to enable or disable PoE power feeding for each PoE port during specified time intervals and it is a powerful function to help SMBs or enterprises save power and budget. It also increases security by powering off PDs that should not be in use during non-business hours. 

Scheduled Power Recycling

The IVR-300FP allows each of the connected PoE IP cameras or PoE wireless access points to reboot at a specific time each week. Therefore, it will reduce the chance of IP camera or AP crash resulting from buffer overflow. 

PD Alive Check

The IVR-300FP can be configured to monitor connected PD status in real time via ping action. Once the PD stops working and responding, the IVR-300FP will resume the PoE port power and bring the PD back to work. It will greatly enhance the network reliability through the PoE port resetting the PD’s power source and reducing administrator management burden.

Ideal VPN Security Gateway Solution for Factories and Transportations

The IVR-300FP provides complete data security and privacy for accessing and exchanging the most sensitive data, built-in IPSec VPN function with DES/3DES/AES encryption and MD5/SHA-1/SHA-256/SHA-384/SHA-512 authentication, and GRE, SSL, PPTP and L2TP server mechanism. The full VPN capability in the IVR-300FP makes the connection secure, more flexible, and more capable.

Centralized Remote Control of Managed APs

The IVR-300FP provides centralized management of PLANET Smart AP series via a user-friendly Web GUI. It's easy to configure AP for the wireless SSID, radio band and security settings. With a four-step configuration process, wireless profiles for different purposes can be simultaneously delivered to multiple APs or AP groups to minimize deployment time, effort and cost.

For example, to configure multiple smart APs of the same model, the IVR-300FP allows clustering them to a managed group for unified management. According to requirements, wireless APs can be flexibly expanded or removed from a wireless AP group at any time. The AP cluster benefits bulk provision and bulk firmware upgrade through single entry point instead of having to configure settings in each of them separately. 

Wi-Fi Deployments and Authentication with Simplified Management

The IVR-300FP also provides a built-in AP Controller, Captive Portal, RADIUS and a DHCP server to facilitate small and medium businesses to deploy secure employee and guest access services without any additional server. The IVR-300FP can offer a secure Wi-Fi network with easy installation for your business. 

Excellent Ability in Threat Defense

The IVR-300FP has built-in SPI (stateful packet inspection) firewall and DoS/DDoS attack mitigation functions to provide high efficiency and extensive protection for your network. Thus, virtual server and DMZ functions can let you set up servers in the Intranet and still provide services to the Internet users.

Cybersecurity Network Solution to Minimize Security Risks

The cybersecurity feature included to protect the switch management in a mission-critical network virtually needs no effort and cost to install. For efficient management, the IVR-300FP is equipped with HTTPS web and SNMP management interfaces. With the built-in web-based management interface, the IVR-300FP offers an easy-to-use, platform independent management and configuration facility. The IVR-300FP supports SNMP and it can be managed via any management software based on the standard SNMP protocol.

Maximizing Work Efficiency with PLANET SD-WAN Gateway

PLANET IVR-300FP incorporated in SD-WAN (software-defined wide area network) function can greatly increase WAN optimization for multiple WAN links to be managed. With SD-WAN, users can connect any application across all available network connections at every site. It improves application performance and provides a high-quality user experience for increasing business productivity and reducing IT costs.

Cost-effective Solution for RS485 to Ethernet Application

The IVR-300FP provides a feature that can convert the Serial RS485 communication to IP networking. Ethernet signal allows two types of segments to connect easily, efficiently and inexpensively. The solution helps users and SIs save expenses as there is no need to replace the existing serial equipment and software system.

Convenient and Reliable Redundant Power System 

To facilitate transportation and industrial-level applications, the IVR-300FP provides an integrated power solution with 48~54V DC voltages for worldwide operability. It also provides dual-redundant, reversible polarity 48~54V DC power supply inputs for high availability applications.
