Section 1 - Introduction
Introduction
D-Link Services Routers oer a secure, high performance networking solution to address the growing needs
of small and medium businesses. Integrated high-speed IEEE 802.11n/ac and 3G wireless technologies oer
comparable performance to traditional wired networks, but with fewer limitations. Optimal network security is
provided via features such as virtual private network (VPN) tunnels, IP Security (IPsec), Point-to-Point Tunneling
Protocol (PPTP), Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP), and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). Empower your road warriors
with clientless remote access anywhere and anytime using SSL VPN tunnels.
With the D-Link Services Router you are able to experience a diverse set of benets:
• Comprehensive Management Capabilities
The DSR-500, DSR-500N, DSR-1000, DSR-1000N, DSR-500AC, and DSR-1000AC include dual-
WAN Gigabit Ethernet which provides policy-based service management ensuring maximum
productivity for your business operations. The failover feature maintains data trac without
disconnecting when a landline connection is lost. The Outbound Load Balancing feature
adjusts outgoing trac across two WAN interfaces and optimizes the system performance
resulting in high availability. The solution supports conguring a port as a dedicated DMZ port
allowing you to isolate servers from your LAN.
Note: DSR-150/150N/250/250N product have a single WAN interface, and thus it does not support
Auto Failover and Load Balancing scenarios.
• Superior Wireless Performance
Designed to deliver superior wireless performance, the DSR-500N and DSR-1000N include
802.11 a/b/g/n support, allowing for operation on either the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz radio bands.
Multiple In Multiple Out (MIMO) technology allows the DSR-500N and DSR-1000N to provide
high data rates with minimal “dead spots” throughout the wireless coverage area.
Next generation wireless performance is available on the DSR-500AC and DSR-1000AC, which
introduce 802.11AC support to the family. Available on the 5 GHz band, the combination of
wider RF bandwidths and up to 8 MIMO streams take data rates available to supporting AC
clients to the next level.
Note: DSR-150N, DSR-250N and DSR-500N support the 2.4GHz radio band only.
• Flexible Deployment Options
The DSR series supports Third Generation (3G) Networks via an extendable USB 3G dongle. This
3G network capability oers an additional secure data connection for networks that provide
critical services. The product can be congured to automatically switch to a 3G network
whenever a physical link is lost.
• Robust VPN features
A fully featured virtual private network (VPN) provides your mobile workers and branch oces
with a secure link to your network. The DSR products are capable of simultaneously managing
5, 5, 10, 20 Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) VPN tunnels respectively, empowering your mobile
users by providing remote access to a central corporate database. Site-to-site VPN tunnels
use IP Security (IPsec) Protocol, Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), or Layer 2 Tunneling
