Industrial Applications

1. Secure Site-to-Site VPN for Distributed Processing Plants

Establishes secure, encrypted remote tunnels from decentralized industrial control hubs back to a central SCADA server. Utilizing hardware-accelerated VPN processing, it handles multiple concurrent tunnels without compromising LAN network speeds.

Problem Solved

Secures vulnerable industrial process data sent over public networks, shielding edge PLCs and smart instrumentation from unauthorized remote access.

2. Centralized AP Orchestration for Automated Warehousing

Uses the integrated AC (Access Controller) to auto-discover, configure, and monitor a grid of wireless access points across warehouse layouts, facilitating stable Wi-Fi links for automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and scanners.

Problem Solved

Eliminates coverage drops and dynamic handoff failures by managing up to 50 access points from a single central hardware router.

3. Bandwidth Policing for Connected Smart Factories

Leverages local database-driven behavior control and IP-based connection limits to prioritize critical factory-floor network traffic over general administrative office downloads.

Problem Solved

Prevents administrative office internet hogs from congesting networks and delaying real-time telemetry from production lines.
