Preface
Thank you for your confidence in us!
With its integrated UMTS/HSxPA modem, the ADSL2+ router LANCOM 1751
UMTS sets standards in flexibility and redundancy. Should a standard DSL
connection fail at a site, branch office or subsidiary, automatic compensation
is provided by a broadband UMTS/HSxPA or EDGE backup connection. Alter-
natively the ISDN interface can be used as a further backup line or for remote
access. Along with this unique level of high availability, the LANCOM 1751
UMTS is equipped as standard with 5 VPN channels (optionally 25), an inte-
grated ADSL2+ modem and four separately configurable switch ports, so offe-
ring a huge variety of professional applications.
The SIM-card holder is easily accessible via the back cover and, by connecting
an external UMTS antenna, indoor reception can be greatly improved. A real
highlight: Anti-theft by ISDN self-callback and location determination by GPS!
