All the time we hear from resellers that they need a real solid router/firewall solution but are not comfortable using lower end “consumer devices” and most business-class products are very expensive. The Cisco SA520 and SA520w (wireless) units offer Cisco quality, Enterprise features, but at a price that doesn’t break the budget. With a network throughput of 200 Mbps and a VPN throughput of 65Mbps, these units can handle almost any situation you can put them into. To top it off, the four LAN ports on the back support Gigabit Ethernet.
