Downers Grove, Illinois (July 2020) - We are now shipping the EIGR-C3 VPN Router  which allows for cellular, secure VPN connection to remote sites where a wired connection is not an option. The Contemporary Controls EIGR Series gigabit IP routers allow you to separate your IT and OT infrastructure, with VPN models allowing secure remote access to devices at a job site.

The popular EIGR line has been expanded with the introduction of the EIGR-C3, a 4G LTE cellular router that has been certified and approved for use on Verizon networks. It is a high-speed router that links cellular to 10/100/1000 Mbps Internet Protocol (IPv4) networks — passing appropriate traffic while blocking all other traffic. One network is the local-area-network (LAN); the cellular is the wide-area-network (WAN). It also has an Ethernet port that can act as the WAN if cellular access is not required. The built-in stateful firewall passes communication initiated on the LAN-side while blocking WAN-side initiated communication. With Port Address Translation (PAT), LAN-side clients can access the Internet. The EIGR-C3 incorporates a built-in CAT1 cellular modem, a real-time clock, and OpenVPN client functionality compatible with the Cloud-VPN service from Contemporary Controls. The EIGR-C3 operates over a 0 to 60°C temperature range and the EIGR-C3X operates over the −40 to +75°C range.
