Secure Remote Access
Product Details
KEB’s C6 Industrial VPN Router provides remote access to new and legacy PLCs. All Serial and Ethernet-based PLCs are supported.
The Industrial Router uses a secure VPN connection through KEB’s global server network. Firewalls can be configured in the Router and data is transmitted via TLS/SSL security protocols.
KEB’s C6 Router is built for tough industrial environments. The unit is housed in a stainless steel enclosure and is ready for DIN rail or wall mount. It is powered with 24VDC and carries UL and CE approvals.
Using COMBIVIS Studio HMI, the Router can be configured as a data logging and remote monitoring tool. Events and alarms can also be programmed to trigger email or SMS message updates.
The C6 VPN Router is well suited for even the most remote installations. 4G is supported on GSM networks worldwide.
KEB’s COMBIVIS CONNECT software enhances the Router’s security. CONNECT allows extensive user management, firewall settings, and a timestamped user log.
