Chapter 2 RS123 Devices
2.1 Description
The RS123 Router is a powerful Gigabit Ethernet router predominately used in SMEs and to provide connectivity to
branch locations and home offices.
The RS123 delivers advanced security, flexibility, and exceptional performance across a wide range of applications.
The RS123 Router is equipped with five Gigabit Ethernet ports that can be independently configured for use in a
LAN, WAN, or DMZ. The RS123 also comes with an SFP slot for optical fibre expansion modules, e.g. for connecting
to an optical fibre broadband connection, enabled by license.
The RS123w and RS123w-4G Devices have a dual-band wireless module which operates at 2.4 and 5 GHz. This
module supports 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless standards. The MIMO 2x2 technology allows for maximum raw data rates of
up to 300 Mbps. Furthermore, RS123w-4G Devices incorporate an integrated LTE(4G) module that supports LTE at
speeds of up to 100 Mbps for downloads and up to 50 Mbps for uploads, in addition to GPRS (EDGE), UMTS (3G+)
and HSPA+.
It also includes a 19-inch rackmount conversion bracket enabling installation in 19-inch server racks. Rack mounting
is further simplified by the device's height, equivalent to one rack unit, and the integrated power supply.
The following figure shows a RS123 typical scenario.

2.2.2 Hardware Monitoring
The LEDs on the front panel are used to monitor the hardware in the RS123 router. These LEDs provide visual in-
formation on the state of the device and reference the condition of the hardware components, indicating whether-
there is connectivity, data flow, etc.
For further information on the LEDs panel, please see Components on page 6.
