I(P)MR-3204DF
Industrial Multifunction VPN Router Managed Ethernet switch w/up to 2 LTE 4G + 2 serial ports + 4 Gigabit Ethernet (incl. 4 PoE) + 2 dual speed SFP w/ Load Balancing, VPN, Storage**; 24V input

OVERVIEW
Lantech I(P)MR-3204DF series is a next generation industrial multi-function VPN router w/up to 2x LTE modem + 4x Gigabit Ethernet ports incl. 4 PoE ports (PoE model) + 2 dual speed SFP+ 2 serial ports that supports advanced function of VPN, Load-balancing, EMMC Flash Storage**, Protocol gateway(Modbus), and LTE quad SIM fail-over for industrial applications. The dual core CPU with 1.6GHz + 256M flash enables the router to multi-task smoothly.
Dual concurrent LTE design 4G/3G for load-balancing
With dual LTE module design (2L model), 4 SIM card slots, I(P)MR-3204DF can allow auto-swap, failover & failback between multiple service providers for real non-stop connection. With concurrent LTE modules, it can also allocate bandwidth by Load Balancing with 8 schemes between multiple WANs. With one mobile LTE module (1L model), 2 SIM card slots, I(P)MR-3204DF provides redundant link between two service providers. Both GPS and Russian GLONASS systems are supported.
Optional EMMC Flash storage**
The optional EMMC flash storage on the router can offer 8G/16G/32G capacity.
Optional eSIM**
By replacing physical SIM, optional eSIM chip will allow users to purchase data plans at low prices from local carriers in the world.
Load Balancing with 5 mechanisms for multi-WANs
I(P)MR-3204DF supports Load Balancing for LTE/WAN connections. There are five schemes for Load Balancing function:
Pack
|Algorithm
|Description
| | --- | --- | --- | |Basic
|Fixed
|All traffic will be distributed to a single WAN.
| | |Failover
|Routes connections through preferred WAN link while others stand-by. Sequentially activating another link if the preferred link fails.
| | |Priority
|Select the active WAN according to priority.
| | |Weighted Round-Robin
|Evenly distribute the traffic over all working WAN links in circular order according to the specified weights.
| | |Custom Route
|Routing through the selected WAN for each specific traffic, ex: TCP/UDP port number and IP address.
|2 port serial connection
It builds in 2 port serial connection for RS232, RS422, RS485.
Managed switch Function
W/ port managed functions, QOS, VLAN, Multicast, Redundant protection, security
VPN and firewall
Besides traditional VPN peer to peer tunneling, I(P)MR-3204DF support latest Multi-Site VPN function that is an efficient way for mesh tunneling. The registration is under cloud service and encrypted by SSH makes the connection easy and safe. It supports Multi-Site VPN, OpenVPN, L2TP over IPsec, IPsec, L2 over GRE , IPGRE, and NAT for various VPN applications. The built-in Layer-4 firewall includes DDoS, IP address filter / Mac address filter / TCP/UDP port number.
Support Routing Protocol: Static route / RIPv2 / OSPF / BGP / EIGRP
Lantech router series supports two routing methods: static routing and dynamic routing. Dynamic routing makes use of RIPv2, OSPF, EIGRP and BGP. The user can either choose one routing method to establish the routing table.
DIDO for alarm & email notice; Event log; Remote Web control
2 sets of DIDO function can support additional high/low physical contact for designate applications besides Port / Power events, for example, DIDO function can trigger alarm if the router was moved or stolen. In case of events, the I(P)MR-3204DF will immediately send email and trap. When the router is at remote area with limited access, Web control can help to get router status or remotely reboot by Web.
Wide range input voltage from 9V-56VDC (24V Model); PoE model built-in 4 port PoE at/af with 80W budget
The I(P)MR-3204DF is able to work from 9VDC to 56VDC (24V Model) and PoE model built-in PoE at/af with PoE budget 80W that is particular good for vehicle, rail train, depot etc. application.
Environmental monitoring for inside router info& alerting; Graphic LTE signal strength
The built-in environmental monitoring can detect router ambient temperature, voltage, current where can send the syslog and email when abnormal.
Built-in Managed Switch Function
Managed switch function is built-in and provides various L2+ functions for network access deployment. It delivers ports and PoE management, VLAN, QoS, multicast, redundant ring, and security functions.
Dual image firmware
It supports dual-image firmware to choose which one to start.
Ruggedized industrial design and FCC, CE & E-marking** certificate
The I(P)MR-3204DF is designed to meet with industrial network environment with IP 30 housing. It passed serious tests under extensive Industrial EMI and environmental vibration and shocks standards.With CE & FCC radio certification for LTE and E-marking certificate, the I(P)MR-3204DF is best for outdoor community, vehicle, process control automation etc application. For more usage flexibilities, I(P)MR-3204DF supports wide operating temperature from -40°C to 65°C.
