LAN Ethernet Interfaces
Both the Cisco RV180 and Cisco RV180W models provide four full-duplex 10/100
Ethernet LAN interfaces that can connect up to four devices.
Wireless Access Point (Cisco RV180W)
The Cisco RV180W model provides a wireless access point that supports the
802.11n standard with MIMO technology, which multiplies the effective data rate.
This technology provides better throughput and coverage than 802.11g networks.
Firewall and VPN Client Access
The Cisco RV180/RV180W incorporates a Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI)-based
firewall with Denial of Service (DoS) prevention and a Virtual Private Network
(VPN) engine for secure communication between mobile or remote workers and
branch offices.
The Cisco RV180/RV180W supports up to ten gateway-to-gateway IP Security
(IPsec) tunnels to facilitate branch office connectivity through encrypted virtual
links. Users connecting through a VPN tunnel are attached to your company’s
network with secure access to files, e-mail, and your intranet as if they were in the
building.
You can also use the VPN capability to allow users on your small office network to
securely connect out to a corporate network
Wireless Distribution System (Cisco RV180W)
The Cisco RV180W’s wireless access point supports Wireless Distribution
System (WDS), which allows the wireless coverage to be expanded without wires.
Virtual Networks
The access point also supports multiple SSIDs for the use of virtual networks (up
to 4 separate virtual networks), with 802.1Q-based VLAN support for traffic
separation.
