The FL mGuard series of industrial-rated security devices provide stateful firewall, router and VPN functionalities in a single, rugged device.
The line is available in two hardware styles for industrial Ethernet:
the FL mGuard RS DIN rail-mount devices and PCI card versions for
integration into industrial PCs. The FL mGuard solution has dedicated
hardware providing security functions, which allows higher data
throughput rates than software-based solutions. There are no
limitations to the operating system or the type of devices connected to
the FL mGuard. It can protect PCs running all versions of Windows, as
well as PLCs, I/O units, bus couplers and other industrial Ethernet
devices. The PCI version of the FL mGuard is currently the only PCI
form factor security device that combines firewall, routing and VPN in
a single device, according to the vendor. Phoenix Contact Inc.www.phoenixcontact.com/mGuard800.586.5525
