LANCOM 1800EF-5G
Secure SD-WAN over fiber and 5G
High performance and fail-safe: In company locations with data-intensive and business-critical applications, this SD-WAN gateway guarantees reliable networking thanks to its high interface diversity. It is suitable for direct connection to both modern fiber optic lines and external modems. The additionally integrated 5G modem ensures the best connection at all times in the event of a failure of the wired Internet, but also as a mobile primary access. With award-winning LANCOM IPSec VPN and SD-WAN, 5 (optionally 25) sites and mobile employees are securely interconnected.
- Secure SD-WAN – centralized cloud management with secure network separation, automated provisioning, and intelligent path control
- High-speed Internet via 5G, fiber optics (GPON and AON modules available separately) and Gigabit Ethernet for connection to external modems
- Integrated 5G modem for low latency and high bandwidth for real-time applications (telephony, video streaming or AR)
- 5 integrated VPN channels (25 optional)
- Network virtualization with up to 16 networks on one device (ARF)
- Extended protection with the content filter of the LANCOM Security Essentials Option
Intelligent networking with Secure SD-WAN
With Secure SD-WAN, you can centrally manage and protect your entire network: via the LANCOM Management Cloud (LMC), you define global security and access policies that are rolled out fully automatically and continuously monitored – from headquarters to branch offices. This significantly accelerates rollouts, configurations, and updates.
Encrypted Auto VPNs, High Scalability and Advanced Mesh VPNs, Dynamic Path Selection, and active/active WAN with intelligent load balancing ensure that business-critical applications always use the optimal transmission path. In addition, the LANCOM Security Essentials option further enhances security through centralized content filtering and URL blocking – for resilient and future-proof site networking.
High-bandwidth WAN connectivity via fiber
With fiber-optic connectivity, you benefit from high bandwidth, low latency, and reliable transmission quality – the ideal basis for powerful and time-critical communication services. An integrated SFP port enables connection to FTTH fiber-optic lines via a separately available transceiver module (GPON/AON). Gigabit Ethernet WAN is available for connecting external provider modems.
High network reliability with 5G cellular communications
Ensure reliable operation of your enterprise networks – even under changing network conditions, outages, or capacity constraints of other access technologies. The 5G-enabled gateway is suitable for primary operation, intelligent backup scenarios, as well as hybrid active/active architectures. Thanks to low latency and stable bandwidth, a secure 5G mobile network effortlessly supports time-critical and data-intensive cloud, edge, and real-time applications.
Multi-layered security – automatically integrated
Security mechanisms in LANCOM routers are not an add-on, but are firmly integrated from the very beginning (“Built-in Security”). The stateful inspection firewall embedded in the LCOS operating system, along with the…
Application scenario 1: 5G and fiber
A client is connected to the Internet via the LANCOM 1800EF-5G in active/active mode (load balancing). Load balancing is used to distribute network data traffic evenly between Internet connections that are operated in parallel. In this way, data connections are divided evenly between (at least) two lines, and the individual bandwidths of the lines are combined. In this scenario, the load balancer integrated in the SD-WAN gateway decides for Internet line 1 (5G) or Internet line 2 (fiber), depending on the load. Even if one line fails, the connection is always secured via the other line.
Application scenario 2: primary access via 5G
The 5G modem integrated in the LANCOM 1800EF-5G is not only suitable for intelligent backup scenarios or parallel operation, but can also be used for 4G/5G primary operation. 5G offers fast and flexible Internet with data rates in the Gigabit range without the complex installation of wired Internet lines. This means that real-time applications such as video streaming or augmented reality (AR) can also be used with 5G mobile communications in combination with lowest latencies.
Application scenario 3: VPN load balancing
The integrated load balancer makes it easy to bundle multiple IKEv2 VPN connections into a load-balancing cluster. Be it in combination with a LANCOM SD-WAN gateway, a LANCOM SD-WAN central site gateway (e.g. LANCOM ISG-5000 in this case), or the LANCOM vRouter – the load of data traffic is more evenly balanced and the data traffic will be distributed if one connection fails. This significantly increases the VPN bandwidth available for multiple clients.
