DrayTek Vigor 2927Lax 5G Router with Wi-Fi 6 AX3000 Wireless
DrayTek Vigor 2927Lax 5G Router with Wi-Fi 6 AX3000 Wireless
DrayTek Vigor 2927Lax-5G Simultaneous Dual-WAN WiFi 6 4G LTE/5G Router with Load Balancing, VPN and 2 x Embedded SIM Slots (2.9Gbps AX)
DrayTek's inaugural 5G/LTE router, the 2927LAX-5G, boasts a dual SIM slot and prioritizes seamless failover in the event of broadband connection issues. Beyond its 5G/LTE compatibility (backwards compatible with 4G/LTE), it harnesses WiFi 6 AX3000 technology, delivering gigabit over-the-air WiFi and ensuring reliable NAT throughput of up to 12Gbps.
Apart from its robust throughput and failover capabilities, this router is equipped with essential internal protocols including Multi-WAN Load Balancing Firewall and integrated VPN server/client support for OpenVPN, WireGuard, and IPSec. It accommodates 8 LAN subnets with VLANs (port based / 802.1q) and offers 5+1 Gigabit LAN ports for connecting various devices, servers, and Network Attached Storage units, while also facilitating VLANs for provisioning Broadband and VPN connectivity to up to 8 distinct networks.
Security is a priority with the 2927LAX-5G, featuring an inclusive Firewall, Content Filtering, and QoS (Quality of Service), along with support for 50 LAN-to-LAN & Remote Worker VPN tunnels. Additionally, remote management is streamlined through VigorACS, DrayTek's remote Central Management System, enabling seamless deployment, provisioning, and monitoring of the router from any location.
