EN-4000™ HARDENED EDGE ROUTER
The EN-4000™ is a hardened LTE edge router designed for utilities. A modular design can be customized for a wide range of applications and services. It adds speed, capacity, and flexibility to the EN™ series of cellular enabled routers. The EN-4000™ base configuration includes, 5 10/100 Ethernet ports, redundant power supplies (AC and DC) in a metal enclosure, and is DIN rail mountable. The EN-4000™ with 3 modular expansion slots can be customized to include a 4-port Power over Ethernet switch, 2 cellular modules, 4G LTE, Band 8 CBRS, 802.11 Wi-Fi module, additional GigE Ethernet ports, GigE Fiber optic ports, dual RS-232, RS-485, RS-422 serial data ports, and I/O contacts.
The EN-4000™ has, several advanced IP routing protocols and security features including IPsec VPN (AES 256/3DES), stateful firewall, Ethernet switching, and legacy industrial protocol to IP internetworking i.e. MODBUS and DNP3. This allows the EN-4000™ to support legacy SCADA and M2M applications commonly used by Utilities, Power, Oil & Gas and Water companies. With the modular hardware interfaces and support of legacy protocols the EN-4000™ can be used to replace aging copper line connections while simultaneously upgrading to IP connectivity.
This provides valuable flexibility and continued ROI as a way to preserve existing CAPEX by avoiding rip and replace of older working legacy hardware and upgrading to more secure and versatile Ethernet/IP connectivity.
The EN-4000™ provides exceptional features at a low-cost with no user fees, a five year hardware warranty, an intuitive web GUI interface, built in layer 4 Firewall, advanced IP routing features, and legacy serial and industrial protocol support.
Manage the EN-4000™ with enSITE™
In addition, EN™ routers can be monitored and managed with Encore’s customer premises server based enSite™. Encore’s enSite™ offers many features that will make managing your entire network of EN™ routers easier, including Cellular data limit enforcement for individual and group plans, firmware updates, Zero and One touch deployment for new hardware, customizable OAM tiers to assist in delivering managed network services, and critical data analytics of the network devices and services
