Lancom Systems UF-160 firewall

The Lancom Systems UF-160 is a high-performance desktop hardware firewall designed for small and medium enterprises. It delivers up to 3.55 Gbit/s firewall throughput, 1.2 Gbit/s IPSec VPN throughput and 750 Mbit/s IPS/IDS throughput. Developed in Germany and carrying the “IT Security made in Germany” trust mark, the UF-160 combines next-generation firewall (NGFW) and Unified Threat Management (UTM) functions, supports IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging, BGP routing and standard security protocols such as EAP, HTTPS, IPSec and SSL/TLS. The device is intended for on-premises wired network deployments and integrates with LANCOM management tools for centralized configuration and monitoring.

Advantages

The Lancom UF-160 provides multi-layered protection with NGFW and UTM technologies and is built to meet compliance and usability requirements of small offices and branch networks. It offers strong throughput for VPN and intrusion prevention, native support for common networking standards, and guaranteed freedom from backdoors thanks to German development. Integration with LANCOM Management Cloud, a web-based GUI and the UF Command Center enables flexible, centralized management and automated device administration.
