CTEK Announces Series 4300 SkyRouter to Provide First Module-Based Router with IP Security and Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol
Ctek announces a new cellular data router, the first module-based router to provide built-in IP security (IPSec) and Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) for financial and lottery applications. Built-In over-the-air network management tools and advanced security address remote financial transaction, lottery terminal, and other secure network applications.
SAN PEDRO, Calif. (PRWEB) November 2, 2006 -- Ctek, a leading manufacturer of specialized communications solutions for industrial and commercial applications, announces the Series 4300 SkyRouter, a new cellular data router, the first module-based router to provide built-in IP security (IPSec) and Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) for sensitive enterprise applications. The Series 4300 was designed with over-the-air network management tools to decrease total cost of operations and network downtime. The solution is approved for use with the largest CDMA carriers in North America as well as multiple regional carriers across the United States.
Ctek's 4300 provides iron-clad security on wireless networks and is ideal for applications in the vast financial transaction arena, which in addition to ATMs and point-of-sale terminals, includes rapidly expanding applications for lottery ticket vending machines. Ease of installation and quick provisioning are key to this market. "Ctek's Series 4300 offers wireless IP network capabilities and real-time data communications from virtually anywhere at anytime," said Bill Buchan, president of Ctek, Inc. "Now more than ever, wireless machine-to-machine communication technology offers enterprises a way to keep a competitive edge in today's fast-paced business environment."
The Ctek Series 4300 SkyRouter provides cost-effective data communication at a fraction of the cost of wired networks and can be installed virtually anywhere - from supermarkets and banks to airports, remote water tanks and oil derricks. In addition to being the first module-based wireless router available with IPSec and L2TP, a key component of the product's value proposition is a suite of "TCO Plus" over-the-air network management tools. These critical features are designed to reduce on-going operational costs and increase efficiency via remote Web-based administration, online firmware updating, online network logging and monitoring, and SMS control and management commands. With the Series 4300 in place, IT managers can immediately respond when wireless carriers make changes or upgrades to their networks by remotely reconfiguring system end-points, rather than sending a service person to manually reconfigure each terminal.
"With the implementation of IPSec and L2TP, the financial transaction marketplace finally has a secure cellular router for wireless IP networks that is easy to deploy, cost effective and proven in the marketplace," added Buchan. "Pent-up demand for secure wireless mobile networks is helping drive adoption of the SkyRouter 4300 and expand the Ctek footprint in the financial and banking industries."
The Series 4300 is the latest in a family of SkyRouter products that share a common platform and have been successfully deployed since 2004 in the United States, Canada, Latin America, Australia and New Zealand, among other countries. An always-on 1xRTT CDMA connection is provided via both serial and Ethernet connections.
Ctek will be exhibiting the complete SkyRouter line at Remote Monitoring and Networking 2006 in Long Beach CA on November 9th and 10th. Stop by booth 24 to learn more about Ctek's wireless product line.
