Highly Secure, Reliable Connectivity for the Small
Business Network
The Cisco®
RV042G Dual Gigabit WAN VPN Router delivers highly secure,
high-performance, reliable connectivity-to the Internet, other
offices, and employees working remotely-from the heart of your
small business network. This proven router provides the
performance and security you need to help keep your employees,
and your business, productive.
The Cisco RV042G
enables two connections, either to a single service provider,
with load balancing to improve performance, or to different
providers to support business continuity. High-capacity virtual
private network (VPN) capabilities let multiple offices and
dozens of employees access the information they need from
anywhere, just as securely as if they were working at your main
office.
To further safeguard
your network and data, the Cisco RV042G includes business-class
security features and optional cloud-based web filtering.
Configuration is a snap, using an intuitive, browser-based
device manager and setup wizards.
Features
• Dual Gigabit Ethernet
WAN ports for load balancing and/or business continuity
