It also supports TCP/IP, DHCP, ICMP, NAT, PPPoE, SNTP, HTTP, and DDNS protocols. The device features one fixed Ethernet WAN port, one fixed Ethernet LAN port, and three changeable Ethernet WAN/LAN ports, providing flexible connectivity options. It supports network media such as 10BASE-T UTP category 3, 4, or 5 cable (max 100m) for reliable data transmission. The TL-R480T includes a reset button for easy configuration and troubleshooting. It is powered by an internal universal power supply with an input voltage of AC100-240V~50/60Hz, ensuring stable operation. The device measures 11.6 x 7.1 x 1.7 inches (294 x 180 x 44 mm) and has a standard rack-mount width of 13 inches, making it easy to integrate into existing network setups. It also has a 64MB LED display for clear visual feedback. **Performance** The TL-R480T supports concurrent sessions of up to 30,000, ensuring efficient network performance even in high-traffic environments. It provides basic functions such as DHCP server/client, DHCP address reservation, port mirror, rate control, port configuration, and port VLAN. The device supports various WAN connection types, including static/dynamic IP, PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP, dual access, and Bigpond Cable. It also offers MAC clone functionality, allowing administrators to modify WAN/LAN MAC addresses for enhanced network management. **Advanced Features** The TL-R480T includes advanced features for enhanced network security and performance. It supports ACL (Access Control List) for IP/MAC/URL/WEB filtering, IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) for proxy and snooping, and forwarding for virtual servers, port triggering, DMZ, load balancing, policy routing, link backup, NAT (Network Address Translation) for one-to-one and multi-nets, static routing, FTP/SIP/PPTP/IPsec/H.323 ALG (Application Layer Gateway), DoS defense, ping of death, traffic control for bandwidth control and session limit, and session limit. The device also offers management features such as PPPoE server, E-Bulletin, dynamic DNS, UPnP (Universal Plug and Play), and app control. It provides maintenance options for time setting, daylight saving time, SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for remote monitoring, diagnostics, firmware upgrade, factory defaults/reboot, backup/restore, system log, and statistics. **Certifications** The TL-R480T is certified by CE, FCC, and RoHS, ensuring compliance with international safety and environmental standards. **Package Contents** The package includes the TL-R480T device, power cord, RJ-45 Ethernet cable, installation guide, and resource CD.
