Description

With growing network services such as HDTV, IPTV, voice-over-IP (VoIP) and Multimedia broadband applications, the demand of bandwidth rises quickly. The current Broadband environment has not already accorded with needing; the FTTH (fiber-to-the-home) would be the most promising NGN (Next Generation Networking) application to fulfill the demand.

The PLANET Wireless Internet Fiber Router, FRT-40xN series, is designed with 802.11n and 2T2R MIMO antenna technology to provide office and residential users the ideal solution for sharing a high-speed fiber Internet connection and four 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet backbone. The FRT-40xN series is a perfect FTTH Digital Home Router which can provide very high performance access to Internet, both downstream and upstream up to 100Mbps through the fiber interface. The FRT-40xN series supports several common optical connectors for WAN connection, such as 100Base-BX, 100Base-LX, 100Base-FX and Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP). The Fiber Router can be implemented easily for optical fiber deployment.

With built-in IEEE 802.11b/g and 802.11n wireless network capability, the FRT-40xN series allows any computer and wireless-enabled network device connect to it without additional cabling. 802.11n wireless capability gives you the highest speed of wireless experience ever. With a 802.11n compatible wireless adapter installed in your PC, the files can be transferred at up to 300Mbps. The radio coverage is also doubled to offer the high speed wireless connection even in a wide space of your office or house.

To secure the wireless communication, the FRT-40xN series supports most up-to-date encryption: WEP, WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK. In order to simplify the security settings, the FRT-40xN series supports WPS configuration with PBC/PIN type for users to connect to a secured wireless network easily.

The FRT-40xN series provides QoS functions to enable smooth network services. Traffic priority can be assigned by the router to guarantee some important and specific transmissions, especially for real-time streaming multimedia applications such as the on-line gaming, VoIP, and IPTV to keep the bandwidth usage smoothly. Moreover, the FRT-40xN series not only provides basic router functions like DHCP server, Virtual Server, DMZ, and UPnP, but also offers full firewall functions including Network Address Translation (NAT), IP / Port / MAC Filtering and Content Filtering. It serves as an Internet firewall to protect your network from being accessed by unauthorized users.
