Wireless N Gigabit VPN Router, Dual WAN

DSR-500N

The D-Link Wireless N Gigabit VPN Router (DSR-500N) provides enhanced security, functionality and performance over a traditional VPN router without the complexity of a full firewall solution; making it the ideal device for a secure, high performance networking solution for the growing needs of small and medium businesses.


Comprehensive Management Capabilities
The DSR-500N includes dual-WAN Gigabit Ethernet which provides policy-based service management ensuring maximum productivity for your business operations. The failover feature maintains data traffic without disconnecting when a landline connection is lost. The Outbound Load Balancing feature1 adjusts outgoing traffic across two WAN interfaces and optimizes the system performance resulting in high availability. The second WAN port can be configured as a DMZ port allowing you to isolate servers from your LAN.

Superior Wireless Performance
Designed to deliver superior wireless performance, the DSR-500N includes 802.11 b/g/n, allowing for operation on the 2.4 GHz radio band. Multiple In Multiple Out (MIMO) technology allows the DSR-500N to provide high data rates with minimal “dead spots” throughout the wireless coverage area.

Robust VPN Features
A fully featured virtual private network (VPN) provides your mobile workers and branch offices with a secure link to your network. The DSR-500N are capable of simultaneously managing 10 Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) VPN tunnels respectively, empowering your mobile users by providing remote access to a central corporate database. Site-to-site VPN tunnels use IP Security (IPSec) Protocol, Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), or Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) to facilitate branch office connectivity through encrypted virtual links. The DSR-500N supports up to 35 simultaneous VPN tunnels.

Efficient Green Technology
As a concerned member of the global community, D-Link is devoted to providing eco-friendly products. D-Link Green WiFi and D-Link Green Ethernet save power and prevent waste. The D-Link Green WLAN scheduler reduces wireless power automatically during off-peak hours. Likewise the D-Link Green Ethernet program adjusts power usage based on the detected cable length and link status. In addition, compliance with RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) and WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) directives make D-Link Green certified devices the environmentally responsible choice. 500N supports up to 35 simultaneous VPN tunnels.
