Chapter1 ProductOverview
With a rugged design and flexible platform, the RAM-6021 industrial secure router provides the ability to remotely
connect, monitor and control assets across a variety of industrial applications. The RAM-6021’s web based event
engine can be customized to trigger I/O or email alerts, to quickly notify personnel of critical events based on
operational data. Add in robust security features, which include a stateful firewall, NAT translations and VPN
connections, and the RAM-6021 delivers a compact all-in-one solution that seamlessly connects to existing
Ethernet infrastructures, including networks with Modbus and DNP3 enabled devices.
The router is also available as a RAM-6021M12 industrial secure model with an IP67 rating.
The RAM-6021M12 industrial LAN router offers secure routing, VPN tunneling and NAT (network address
translation) for secure LAN to LAN and LAN to WAN communication. Housed in a rugged IP67, dust-proof and
water resistant metal enclosure, the RAM-6021M12 is designed to withstand harsh industrial environments
including temporary immersion in water, exposure to low/high pressure water jets, and extreme shock and vibration
levels, making it ideal for industries where hardened products are required.
