Mobile 3G/EDGE router
Munich, Germany
The compact and intelligent router ensures efficient and secure video transfer. Included with the BWA video solution is the free NVB-Lite software that can simultaneously monitor connection quality of several DVRs and adapt the video frame rate to current available bandwidth.
DiREX-Pro compressed video and audio streams, as well as e-mails are forwarded over integrated NAT (Network Address Translation) via Fast Ethernet to public IP networks. In combination with a RS-232 interface it is also possible to control video recordings via SMS or receive a motion detection alert on a cellular/mobile phone. Even when using older GSM networks or in the event of a lost connection the mobile duo (MR / DiREX-Pro) always keeps the user up-to-date. A special feature is a second SIM-card that can provide an alternate connection in case of difficulties with the primary provider or if the maximum download volume has been reached or timer-controlled. Additionally, a second card avoids expensive roaming rates in transnational traffic.
The MR-36 is very versatile automatically choosing the fastest connection type available - whether GPRS, EDGE, 3G/UMTS or HSDPA. Providing 3.6 Mbit/s in download and up to 384 Kbit/s in uplink with an LED indicating active connection type. Each device has a unique IP address and can be preconfigured via an integrated web interface. The MR-36 supports DHCP and DynDNS services as well as L2TP. External FTP access is also forwarded to DiREX-Pro. The router can create its own IPSec encrypted VPN channel to an organization's head office and makes it possible to use the device in conventional mobile networks with dynamic non-public IP addresses and external NAT. Once connected to the closed intranet all data is available, always ensuring a secure connection.
Combined with the rugged DiREX-Pro.A40 DVR, this compact and lightweight router can be used in a temperature range of -20° to +55°C - ideal for permanent outdoor use. Power for the MR-36 is supplied from a D-Sub plug of the recorder. With this convenient one-cable solution there is no need for an external power supply. Furthermore, the extremely low standby power consumption of only 0.3 Watts and a wide range for the input voltage (10-30V) offer great flexibility of usage. For example, with a dedicated power supply or in a sealed weatherproof case. An integrated USB-A port supports standard GPS mouse devices so the USB port of DiREX-Pro is kept free for an extended memory capacity up to 2 TByte. The router is equipped with an FME plug for an external antenna that provides a high reception level even at long distances.
