Can industrial routers be used at home?
Industrial router is a very powerful router equipment, generally used in large enterprises, factories and other places, so the industrial router can be used at home, the answer is very obvious, then let's explain some specific content.
1.Can industrial routers be used at home
The average industrial router can be used at home, is overqualified.
The differences between an industrial router and a home router are:
1. The industrial router is a durable device for connecting two or more networks. It can transmit signals only to the required ports, providing stable and powerful functions. Home routers are relatively inexpensive. The advantages are that it is suitable for large-scale enterprise network connections, and can adopt complex network topologies, load sharing and optimal routing.
2. General industrial routers are mostly used for data transmission and other functions, and there are hundreds of them. If the wireless Internet access needs of so many people are to be met at the same time, the forwarding performance and the number of routers have high requirements. However, household routers have low density, low signal strength, small coverage, limited forwarding performance and band capacity.
3. Industrial routers generally have multiple security services and more abundant routing protocols, such as SNMP, static router, policy router, unified management protocol, etc. Through these protocols, industrial routers can ensure the safe operation of the network and protect user data from being stolen.
4, industrial grade product design, more suitable for long-term use.
In general, the average router will not be used for too long, so the router will have a lot of time to "rest". However, industrial routers are different in the use of routers. Due to the needs of work, most of the time, the router even needs to run 24 hours, which puts forward higher requirements for the industrial design of routers.
