SD-WAN gateway with fiber, Ethernet, 5G, and Wi-Fi 6
With its wide variety of interfaces, the LANCOM 1800EFW-5G enables scalable SD-WAN site networking for medium-sized enterprises in the highest quality: The connection to modern fiber-optic connections as well as to external modems ensures fast and stable Internet. The additional 5G modem for intelligent backup scenarios in case of wired Internet line failure or for primary operation guarantees high availability and top performance of your business-critical applications. Fast dual-band concurrent Wi-Fi 6 technology integrates mobile devices into the corporate network in parallel in the 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz bands. In addition to a secure VPN connection via LANCOM IPSec VPN, the LANCOM Management Cloud (LMC) ensures location-independent working, which allows you to centrally manage your network components.

LANCOM SD-WAN – Next-level networking
With LANCOM SD-WAN you can manage and monitor your entire corporate network centrally, cost-effectively, quickly, and stress-free! In combination with the LANCOM Management Cloud, the SD-WAN gateway gives you all the options for an automated setup of secure VPN connections (Auto-VPN) between sites, including network virtualization. Highlight features such as High Scalability VPN (HSVPN) and Advanced Mesh VPN offer you a significant plus in scalability and efficiency for a large number of branches and applications. Furthermore, if multiple WAN connections are defined, they are automatically operated in active/active mode (load balancing), thereby increasing the available total bandwidth. With Dynamic Path Selection and Dynamic Traffic Steering, applications are also dynamically routed via the best connection at any given time.

WAN connectivity with Gigabit Ethernet and fiber
The LANCOM 1800EFW+ enables direct connection to a fiber-optic line (FTTH) via its SFP/TP combo port using a separately available SFP module (GPON / AON). In conjunction with an integrated 5G modem and Gigabit Ethernet for connecting external modems, the branch router offers the maximum flexibility in the choice of the Internet connections available at the site.

Professional integration of wireless clients via Wi-Fi 6
The LANCOM 1800EFW-5G offers wireless LAN in the Wi-Fi 6 standard (IEEE 802.11ax) and can simultaneously integrate clients in the 2.4 GHz frequency band as well as modern end devices in the 5 GHz band into the network and supply them with fast Wi-Fi. The dual-band concurrent Wi-Fi 6 technology enables transmission rates of up to 1,200 Mbps in 5 GHz and up to 575 Mbps in 2.4 GHz in parallel.

Modern housing with focus on sustainability
Innovative technology meets forward-looking optics: the combination of matte black plastic and mirror-like acrylic glass front panel for interface information conveys a tangible feeling of security, reliability, and high quality. The housing of the SD-WAN branch router offers high installation flexibility thanks to possible table, rack, and wall mounting. Local production ensures short procurement routes with low CO2 emissions and thus scores particularly well in terms of sustainability.

Security with ARF, VLAN, and inspection firewall
Equipped with a stateful inspection firewall, the LANCOM SD-WAN gateway protects the entire network with functions such as intrusion prevention and denial of service protection. Logical network segmentation allows you to define individual security settings and access rights according to the requirements of the user groups, and to divide your infrastructures and applications into different areas. This network segmentation using ARF (Advanced Routing and Forwarding) and VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) ensures that your enterprise network as a whole remains protected, even if a network segment is compromised.

Secure communication via VPN
With virtual private networks (VPN), you use the public medium of the Internet as a communication path and secure the connection in such a way that the communication still remains completely inaccessible to external parties. This SD-WAN gateway offers you five integrated IPSec VPN channels for secure encryption, so that the protection of internal company data is always guaranteed when connecting mobile employees, home offices, or branch offices. With the LANCOM VPN Option, you can also upgrade the device to up to 25 VPN channels, so that the infrastructure can easily grow with your needs without additional hardware.

Maximum future-proofing and digital sovereignty
As an established German manufacturer of IT network solutions, LANCOM stands for reliability and know-how. Software and hardware development as well as production take place primarily in Germany, as does the hosting of the network management. Special attention is given to providing trusted solutions with outstanding security features. Another important security characteristic of the products is that they are free from backdoors, as awarded by the German Federal Ministry of Economy with the quality seal “IT Security made in Germany”. All devices are always equipped with with hardware that is dimensioned for the future. Even across product generations, updates to the LANCOM operating system family are available several times a year, free of charge. his guarantees a long service life while staying technically up to date, which represents a true protection of your investment. In addition, LANCOM infrastructures are easily scalable thanks to maximum compatibility.
