data to the internet. As long as port 80 is blocked, the VPVision is not visible from outside the
premises. For remote viewing, port 80 or another (mapped) port can be added to access the web
server from remote.
VPN hardware devices
Various hardware can be used for the VPN service. Please consult your IT department for setting up
a VPN connection. They can offer the right solution with the appropriate safety level.

Cellular internet
A cellular internet connection can be used if it is not possible to create a wired connection. Make
sure that an industrial gateway module (i.e. router) is used. These gateways have a RJ45 connector
that can be connected to the VPVision Ethernet ports.
A SIM with internet subscription can be sourced locally. The amount of data that will be used will
strongly depend on the number of users and the total remote access time. The subscription should
have a static IP address. This is the IP address that you need to enter in your web browser. You
don't want the IP address to change because you will not know what address to use.
Please take below items into account while selecting a router
It is an industrial router
It supports port forwarding
It has a RJ45 port, not an USB port
It preferably supports some firewall/security options
No further detailed specification or description can be given as each 3G or 4G router is different.
Additionally, each hardware device functions differently on each continent. It is highly recommended
to ask locally for advice on the best choice 3G or 4G router.
