• Allocates broadband repsus to specific clients based on their unique application environments

What this product is for The TL-R480T + Broadband Broadband Router is a great choice for small businesses. It brings you a quick return on investment and low operating costs. The device is equipped with three switchable ports that can be set to either LAN or WAN, allowing the router to support up to four WAN ports to accommodate different kinds of Internet access requirements from a single device. The TL-R480T + has integrated load balancing strategies, advanced QoS management and a powerful firewall to ensure consistent network uptime and reliable Ethernet connectivity. In addition, the TL-R480T + is easy to manage with a web-based tool, making building and managing your network more convenient.

Three switchable WAN/LAN ports The TL-R480T + has three switchable ports that can be set up as LAN or WAN, so it can support up to four WAN ports, so you can meet different Internet access requirements with a single device. In addition, the router is equipped with an intelligent load balancing feature that automatically selects the most efficient link for the load and bandwidth requirements, ensuring consistent network usability and reliable Ethernet connectivity.

Rich security features To protect against external threats, the TL-R480T + can automatically detect and block DoS (Denial of Service) attacks, such as TCP/UDP/ICMP congestion, death ping, and other similar threats. In addition, this router has IP/MAC/URL/Web filtering capabilities that effectively prevent intruders and viruses. To further simplify the management of the internal network for administrators, the TL-R480T + can set rules for blocking specific Web sites and IM/P2P applications with a single click and prevent employees from using certain specific services, such as FTP, HTTP and SMTP.

Effective access control When you set up a PPPoE Server so that individual private network users have their PPPoE accounts, the router will only allow Internet access to users with legal accounts that have been authenticated. In conjunction with the ability to assign bandwidth to individual IP addresses, these bandwidths can be earmarked for certain PPPoE accounts. Yes ther feature is the so-called E-Bulletin, which allows you to regularly send a newsletter in the form of a website to certain groups of users, when they are notified of the expiration date of their PPPoE account. Using these features, the router can prioritize different users with regard to using Internet access to make access control more efficient.

The investment promotes corporate security Professional lightning protection technology protects against electrical shocks that could penetrate the equipment and are therefore safely earthed. In well-grounded conditions, this router has lightning protection up to 4 kV. As a result, investing in network infrastructure will remain as secure as possible from at least one kind of mother nature spree.
