Brief description
The mbNET industrial router offers you optimum flexibility and security, making remote communication with your
systems both easy and secure. Thanks to its compact design, the mbNET router will fit into any switch cabinet, and
with its multiple interfaces and drivers, is the perfect solution for integrating different control systems. The mbNET
router is configurable using a web interface.
Features
Fully configurable using web interface via locally connected computer, or remotely.
Deployable worldwide using different modem connections, (ISDN, analog, mobile broadband) plus access
via LAN and Internet.
Secure connection using an integrated firewall with IP filter, NAT and port forwarding, VPN with AES,
DES/3DES/DESX, Blowfish or RC2 encryption, and authentication via pre-shared key (PSK), static key or
certificate (X.509).
Alarm management:
oFully configurable digital inputs and outputs, and the ability to send via email, SMS or Internet
dial-up.
oVia remote output switching in the event of a fault or with an active Internet connection.
Integrated server secures all settings, keys and certificates and allows data sharing within the network via
connected USB flash or hard drive.
Variable RS232, RS485, RS422 RS interface or optional MPI/PROFIBUS for connecting control systems.

3. Safety Instructions (English and France)
Only qualified specialist personnel may install, start up, and operate the router. The national safety and
accident prevention regulations must be observed.
The router is built to the latest technological standards and recognized safety standards (see Declara-
tion of Conformity).
The router is only intended for operation in the control cabinet and with SELV according to IEC
60950/EN 60950/VDE 0805.
The router is for indoor use only.
