ProSafe™ Dual Band Wireless VPN Firewall
with 802.11a/b/g Access Point and
10/100 Mbps Switch
Tri-mode Wireless Operability, High Bandwidth, and
Business-class VPN Security
For an invaluable asset to your wireless network architecture, look to NETGEAR’s ProSafe Dual
Band Wireless VPN Firewall. Equipped with an IEEE standard 802.11a and an 802.11g access
point, it gives your wireless LAN 802.11a/b/g functionality. This high-test firewall uses
business-class 11a, is backward compatible with 11b, and delivers future-forward, 54 Mbps
11g compliance while it capitalizes on your current 11b investment. It features four auto-
sensing, Auto Uplink™ 10/100 Mbps switched LAN ports, as well as Network Address
Translation (NAT) routing for IP address conservation and network shielding. True Firewall
provides total business-class security with Denial of Service (DoS) protection and Intrusion
Detection using Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI), URL access and content filtering, logging,
reporting, and real-time alerts. IPSec-based VPN end-point support reduces remote access
costs by providing two (2) 3DES-encrypted tunnels for secure WAN connections. Web
browser-based settings and on-screen help make setup a breeze, and Smart Wizard install
assistant gets your network up and running in minutes.
Two (2) built-in 802.11a/g-based antennas afford powerful tri-mode wireless signal reception and
prolong network life beyond 802.11b. Extends your network to support up to 108 Mbps wireless
throughput (802.11a in turbo mode*) without the need for any new cabling. Upgradable with new
features and enhancements via downloads from www.NETGEAR.com. Protects your investment
with a 3-year warranty.
Integrated four (4) 10/100 Mbps switched LAN ports with auto-sensing and Auto Uplink. High
bandwidth WLAN access and single IP address-sharing with up to 253 users, with up to 96 users
on the WLAN. MAC Address cloning/spoofing, Import/ Export router settings, and LAN DHCP
server controls. Advanced settings offer users additional control.
Full network protection from a True Firewall with Denial of Service (DoS) attack protection and
Intrusion Detection using Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI), logging, reporting and real-time alerts;
web page URL keyword filtering and blocking. Support for two IPSec-based VPN end-point tun-
nels for secure remote connections; 168-bit IPSec-based 3DES encryption capability. NAT routing
and VPN pass-through (L2TP, PPTP, IPSec) safely share your broadband connection with multiple
computers.
Auto Uplink on LAN ports eliminates the need for crossover cables. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
remote management capability provides ease of deployment and administration for multiple sites.
NETGEAR’s Smart Wizard install assistant guides you through each step and automatically detects
your ISP connection type, saving time and reducing setup errors.
