USRobotics, a Platinum Equity company, launched a new product recently to complement its successful range of ADSL2+ modem and router products. The USR819112 ADSL2+ Ethernet/USB Router is the ideal solution for broadband users wanting to pay less for a great ADSL modem and still be able to add extra users in the future. The new product is also available in the Middle East.
The integrated ADSL2+ modem is the latest technology offering speeds up to 24 Mbps. Simply adding one of USRobotics’ Fast Ethernet switches or a wireless access point means that the number of users supported by the router can be increased effortlessly. The security features include an advanced firewall, so that users can be sure their network is protected from hackers.
“In this market, the demand for broadband connections is increasing rapidly and this new product addresses that segment of the market looking for great performance, long-term flexibility, and a great price,” says Sumit Kumar, Regional Manager, Middle East and North Africa, USRobotics.
The USR819112 ADSL2+ Ethernet/USB Router delivers the performance and flexibility to optimize an ADSL connection at home or at the office. Three products in one, the USR819112 includes an integrated ADSL modem, Ethernet router, and a Stateful Packet Inspection firewall. It also provides users with the ability to connect a computer via Ethernet or USB port, for maximum flexibility.
“USRobotics values the feedback we receive from our customers, and the addition of this modem is a direct result of that feedback,” added Kumar. “The flexibility of this new router is something our customers have asked for, and we’re excited about providing them with our solution.”
Parental control features allow users to control PC access to the Internet by time of day and day of week.
