LN1000 Mobile
Secure Router
Product Overview
Military organizations, first
responders, and transportation
providers are not immune to the
growing global demand for secure
and mobile access to a highperformance network that provides
intelligent voice, video, and data
transport. This demand for highperformance, secure networking
also exists in networks that support
unmanned surveillance aircraft,
exploration (oil, gas, and mining)
equipment, and energy utility
networks for power monitoring.
The Juniper Networks LN1000 is a
secure, high-performance router
delivered in a small form factor
energy efficient package that can
be embedded in a customer chassis
for portable and transportable
router markets, making it the perfect
solution for even the most demanding
mobile network applications.
Product Description
The Juniper Networks® LN1000 Mobile Secure Router is an edge access router that delivers
a high-performance routing firewall and intrusion detection service (IDS). Packaged in
the standard 4 x 6 x .85 inches VPX form factor, it consumes 35 watts of power or less
and weighs less than 1.5 lbs. The Space, Weight, and Power (SWAP) characteristics of
the LN1000 make it ideal for customers who require a secure and rugged network access
router with a small footprint in a transportable package. The LN1000 provides the power
of Juniper’s hardware and Junos OS routing functionality across its 8 x 1GbE interfaces.
The LN1000 addresses the growing demand for a network access presence in military,
first responder and transportation vehicles, mining and exploration equipment, unmanned
aircraft, and power grids. Until now, many of these networks were forced to leverage
traditional routing and security boxes that were designed for equipment rack installations
requiring forced air or fans for cooling. These designs did not consider the SWAP
requirements of mobile secure networks. These mobile, and in some instances remote
network endpoints, have a unique set of requirements that only the LN1000 can provide in
a VPX form factor.
The high-performance routing capability of the LN1000 not only provides industry-leading
routing and forwarding performance, but it also solves communications issues associated
with mobile network access devices. A mesh network of LN1000s is able to determine the
most efficient and effective path for network communications across radio networks. It
constantly monitors bandwidth between network hops to ensure that traffic is managed
appropriately and always gets through—even in networks where available bandwidth from
one point to another can be extremely dynamic due to radio signal interference.
As an edge access device, the LN1000 can be at risk of network attacks. Whether on
the battlefield, on a local public transit bus, or located at a local power substation, the
threat of unwanted network access, network sabotage, and denial-of-service (DoS)
attacks exists. With its integrated firewall and intrusion detection system, the LN1000
ensures that the network is always up and securely running by denying malicious threats
and unauthorized access or control. The LN1000 VPX packaging provides a conduction
cooling system that allows it to run in harsh environmental conditions without the need
for external fans or forced air cooling systems.
