Proxicast LAN-Cell 2TM
High Performance Mobile 3G Cellular
Router
FEATURES
The Proxicast LAN‑Cell 2 is a high-performance,
mobile, rugged, upgradeable, commercial-grade 3G cellular router that
allows multiple PC's, laptops, web-cams, PLCs, POS terminals,
ATMs and other Ethernet-based devices to simultaneously utilize
a single cellular data account for primary or backup connectivity.
Building on the success of the original
LAN‑Cell Mobile Gateway, the LAN-Cell 2
adds support for the latest 3G high‑speed wireless cellular technologies
and dramatically expanded routing, security and management
features.
The LAN‑Cell 2 3G router is the most
advanced, secure and flexible cellular router available. The
LAN‑Cell 2 protects your LAN equipment
from Internet threats and gives you control over your cellular
data connection in ways no other modem or wireless router can.

High Performance Mobile 3G Cellular Router
The LAN‑Cell 2 3G router supports today's fastest 3G cellular
standards, such as EV‑DO Rev(A) and HSDPA / HSUPA. With
some 3G wireless services offering bandwidths of over 1,000 Kbps downstream
and 500 Kbps upstream, many applications requiring broadband
performance can now “go cellular”. And with its 3G modem
PC‑Card architecture, the LAN‑Cell 2
is carrier independent and can easily be upgraded as newer and
faster cellular technologies, such as 3.5G, 4G, LTE and WiMAX become available.
Advanced Routing
& Management
The LAN‑Cell 2 3G router has routing and security features
typically found only in wired corporate routers costing thousands
more. The LAN‑Cell 2 provides seamless Internet connectivity
and unmatched security to PCs and laptops as well as devices
that were never designed for connection to the Internet, such
as sensors, data loggers, PLCs, ATMs, and traffic controls.
All without requiring any additional software or configuration
on your remote equipment. And it's easy to manage hundreds
or even thousand of LAN‑Cell 2's using
most standard SNMP software packages.
Enterprise Level
Security & VPN
The LAN‑Cell's NAT and advanced rule-based SPI firewall
provide highly granular security and policy enforcement for
all remote devices and users. The built‑in 3DES and
AES encryption-capable VPN client and server software eliminates
the need to configure individual devices and extends your
secure corporate network to devices that cannot run VPN client
software. Proxicast's optional IPSec VPN Client sofware for Windows can instantly create secure IPSec tunnels from any remote Windows PC.
Modular Chassis
with Card-GuardTM and Card-LockTM
The LAN‑Cell 2's
unique modular chassis allows the device to operate with the
cellular PC-Card exposed or protected inside the unit. By
using the Card-Guard, the PC‑Card modem is completely
protected from harm or tampering. The Card‑Guard includes
a mounting hole for an external SMA bulkhead antenna connector.
Proxicast offers optional PC‑Card to SMA "pigtail"
cables to provide a rugged external antenna connection for
different PC‑Card modems and antennas. The chassis also
features Proxicast's Card-Lock system that prevents
the PC‑Card from coming loose or being unintentionally
removed from the LAN‑Cell.
Cell-SentryTM
Cellular Data Budgeting System
Cellular carrier’s offer a variety
of data service plans scaled to meet your application needs.
However they usually impose steep “overage” charges
for exceeding your allotment. Even “unlimited”
plans have maximum “caps” that can trigger fees
as high as $0.50/MB ($500/GB) or $0.25/minute. The LAN-Cell
2’s Cell-Sentry feature monitors your cellular
usage and can alert you when you reach a predefined threshold
or even block additional cellular usage to avoid overage charges.
