Digi routers, cellular extenders and console servers provide
reliable connectivity that is securely tunneled for at-home workers
and out-of-band management capabilities for stretched, corporate
data centers.
HOPKINS, Minn., April 9, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- With
organizations moving in-office operations to remote environments
due to COVID-19 quarantine mandates, creating a secure
work-from-home network is a top priority. Digi International®,
(NASDAQ: DGII, www.digi.com), a leading global provider of
Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity products and services, today
announced a hardware and software package, including the Digi EX15,
Digi 6310-DX, Digi Connect® IT and Digi Remote Manager® that enable
enterprises to simply provide remote workers with high-speed
connectivity backed by corporate security tools and policies.
"As remote work increases, cybersecurity threats are also rising
due to vulnerable connections and networks. Our remote worker
connectivity package is designed to be easily deployed and
configured to protect against those threats, regardless of where
employees are working," says Brian
Kirkendall, Vice President, Product at Digi International.
"Arming employees with optimal tools to work efficiently and
securely from home not only enables disruption-free productivity,
it also creates peace of mind across the organization and ensures
digital safety."
For primary wired WAN, a home office worker can connect the
computer to the LAN port on the Digi device and the WAN port to the
home Internet router. Corporate IT staff can configure the Digi
device remotely via Digi Remote Manager to create a VPN tunnel
between the home office and the corporate data center, encrypting
all IP traffic in the tunnel. If there is service outage at the
home, the Digi device with its cellular module will take over and
keep communications running and all data secure.
Digi's work from home connectivity options include:
- Digi EX15: an LTE cellular extender that offers gigabit
Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity, the Digi EX15 offers Ethernet
ports for wired WAN and LAN connectivity, along with a serial
RS-232 port for out-of-band management. Employees can easily
connect through a wired connection or the LTE certified CORE
plug-in cellular modem.
- Digi 6310-DX: a cellular extender powered by the 4G
LTE-certified Digi CORE plug-in module. The Digi 6310-DX delivers
primary or backup cellular failover for business continuity.
- Digi Connect IT:
-
- Connect IT Mini: Single serial ports with wired WAN and
LAN for issue remediation and OOB management, and LTE Cat-M
for maximum coverage
- Connect IT 4: Four serial port solution with wired WAN and
LAN using the Digi CORE® LTE modem with support for CaT 1, CaT
4, or CaT 6 for always-on cellular out of band access to branch
offices and retail locations
- Connect IT 16/48: Solutions offering 16 or 48 serial ports
with wired WAN and LAN for higher density locations that may be
deployed with Digi CORE LTE modems to support resilient access
to key infrastructure and remote data centers
- Digi Remote Manager: Digi's comprehensive IoT device
monitoring application allows enterprises to simply provision and
monitor its network of cellular routers and extenders as they are
deployed to a workforce. As such, businesses are able to establish
master configuration profiles to allow the system to monitor
remediate device configurations back to approved settings in the
event they are out of compliance. The Digi Remote Manager is also
PCI, HIPPA and NIST approved and allows customers to reduce the
amount of hardware required to build solutions.
- Digi TrustFence®: a comprehensive security
framework integrated into Digi's cellular routers, cellular
extenders, and console management products.
