Fully modular industrial router for optimal coupling of your networks.

The MRX series enables you to make targeted use of the latest technology, ideal for your specific application. Thanks to the fully modular design, you can flexibly equip your MRX for your requirements and adapt it to new challenges at any time. In addition to the perfectly optimized computing power, you thus also benefit from the best possible price/performance ratio and an above-average service life. 

Wide range of applications

Based on its modular concept, you can equip your MRX with exactly the functions you need for your infrastructure. Two housing widths, various basic versions and a range of additional modules, so-called MRXcards, are available for this purpose. Thanks to these diverse options, you are highly flexible both in terms of acquisition and in terms of any adaptations that may be required at a later date.
The integrated firewall and VPN functionality also allow secure remote maintenance of your end devices.

The two housing widths

Two housing widths are available for the MRX series

  • MRX3: Here you have 3 slots at your disposal, two of which are defined by the selected base variant. In the third slot you can insert any other module (MRXcard)
  • MRX5: Here you have 5 slots at your disposal, two of which are defined by the respective selected basic variant. Any other modules (MRXcard) can be inserted into the other three slots.

The four basic variants

The MRX series is available in four basic variants, each with different basic equipment.

  • The basic variant MRX LAN consists of an Ethernet module with five LAN ports, as well as a power module for power supply and with 2 digital inputs. The five LAN ports can be divided into up to five IP networks.
  • The basic variant MRX LTE consists of an Ethernet module with five LAN ports, as well as a LTE module with integrated power supply and 2 digital inputs. The five LAN ports can be divided into up to five IP networks. The world variant supports a greater variety of cellular frequencies.
  • The basic variant MRX Fiber consists of an Ethernet module with five LAN ports, as well as a SFP/Fiber module with integrated power supply and 2 digital inputs. The five LAN ports can be divided into up to five IP networks.
  • The basic variant MRX DSL consists of an Ethernet module with five LAN ports, as well as a DSL module with integrated power supply and 2 digital inputs. The five LAN ports can be divided into up to five IP networks. MRX-DSL is available for DSL-Annex A and for DSL-Annex B.

Note: ADSL connections in Germany are usually operated in the Annex B variant. You can obtain precise information on the Vairante used (Annex A or Annex B) from your provider of the connection. This applies especially to connections outside Germany.

Various expansion options

If the possibilities of the respective basic modules are not sufficient for you, you can extend your MRX at any time by different further modules, so-called MRXcards. More detailed information about the available modules can be found in the category Apps & Acessories.

Convincing and versatile

To ensure that a secure VPN connection can be used effectively, we offer you a convenient VPN portal. With the DELTA LOGIC Connectivity Service, you can create VPNs of any complexity and access the end devices via direct routing.
You don't want to set up your router for our DELTA LOGIC Connectivity Service yourself? No problem. We will be happy to pre-configure your new router for you. Simply send us the completed router configuration form with your order.

I cannot connect to my Siemens HMI panel (KTP1500 Comfort, KTP600 Basic,... ) via VPN in the TIA Portal. Why?

1. With HMI panels only "Advanced online loading" can be used in the TIA Portal, "Advanced online connect" is basically not possible.
2. "PG/PC interface" TAP-Windows Adapter..." must be selected as interface.
3. With some HMI panels (KTP600 Basic) the "PN/IE interface" cannot be used, in these cases the "Ethernet interface" has to be used.
4. For some HMI panels (e.g. TP700 Comfort), the "Display all compatible stations" option must not be active.
