EnGenius launches a new cloud-managed router, the VPN model ESG320.

Designed to meet the growing demands of small and medium-sized businesses, the ESG320 offers enterprise-level performance, robust security, and simplified cloud-based management, making it the ideal choice for companies looking to optimize their network infrastructure, ensure data protection, and increase operational efficiency.

Comprehensive security with stateful firewall

Businesses face the challenge of protecting their networks from external threats while maintaining smooth operations. The ESG320 addresses this issue with its Stateful firewall, which monitors and inspects traffic to protect against cyberattacks. It also only allows authorized traffic, providing real-time protection against intrusions and malware.

Moreover, this router enables secure access and sharing of critical data while offering flexibility in implementing customized security policies. Its TPM security chip enhances encryption, preventing unauthorized access and data breaches.

Auto-VPN technology and simplified network setup

Setting up secure connections for remote sites and users can be complex, especially for companies without an internal IT department. The ESG320 simplifies this with its Auto-VPN technology, which automatically creates secure site-to-site VPN tunnels. This allows easy connection of branch offices, remote workers, and clients.

Key features include VPN healing for automatic disruption recovery and NAT traversal for network compatibility. Additionally, SecuPoint, a VPN client for remote employees, provides seamless access to critical resources from anywhere, whether in the office, at home, or on the go.

Optimized network performance with Dual WAN and 4G/5G redundancy

The ESG320 offers Dual-WAN, providing two separate internet connections that can be used simultaneously to increase bandwidth and optimize network performance. Additionally, the router includes a Gigabit WAN port, an SFP fiber port (WAN1), and a Gigabit LAN port (WAN2) for fast and reliable connectivity.

Its WAN load balancing feature optimizes bandwidth usage by distributing traffic across available WAN interfaces, improving network performance and reducing latency. If one WAN connection fails, the cellular failover feature automatically activates through a USB 3.0 LTE modem, ensuring continuous connectivity and minimizing costly downtime.

Cloud-based management for effortless monitoring and administration

The ESG320 streamlines network management through the EnGenius Cloud management platform, offering a centralized dashboard for remote monitoring and management. Businesses can easily configure and monitor the new router and other EnGenius devices from a single interface. IT teams can also perform real-time diagnostics, track VPN connections, and proactively identify network issues. With automatic updates and remote troubleshooting, businesses can quickly resolve problems, reducing IT workload and costs. Furthermore, the Passthrough mode allows seamless integration into existing networks without disruptions.

The launch of the ESG320 marks a significant step for businesses seeking to enhance their network security and performance. This router combines powerful security features, fast and reliable performance, and seamless cloud-based management in an affordable and easy-to-use device. It is undoubtedly the perfect solution for companies looking to stay secure and connected while minimizing IT complexities, said Roger Liu, Executive Vice President of EnGenius.
