The DFL-1600 VPN Firewall delivers complete network protection and Virtual Private Network (VPN) services for large businesses. Through robust security features, flexible configuration and maximum network protection, it offers a high return on investment to businesses that demand high performance at competitive prices.

Within an industrial chassis, the DFL-1600 VPN firewall offers an impressive set of hardware features that include a high-speed processor, a large database and a powerful firewall engine that can handle up to 400,000 concurrent sessions. The DFL-1600 includes multiple user-configurable Gigabit ports for flexible, scalable and cost effective network deployments with fail-over and outbound load balancing1. In addition, two DFL-1600 firewalls can be installed in parallel for redundancy: the passive one serving as back-up in case of the failure of the active one (High Availability). 1functionality available in an upcoming firmware update

The DFL-1600 includes a special feature called ZoneDefense - a mechanism that operates seamlessly with D-Link xStack switches to perform proactive network security. ZoneDefense automatically quarantines infected computers on the network and prevents them from flooding the network with malicious traffic.

The DFL-1600 offers two levels of Intrusion Prevention: - Basic: countering well-known threats and periodically updated, this level is included free of charge. - Advanced: using component-based signature technology, designed to detect unknown network attacks (zero-day protection) and updated in real time via the D-Link NetDefend Centre, which is included free of charge for a 3 month period and which is then available after this time as a purchase subscription.

The DFL-1600 provides advanced traffic shaping technology, allowing administrators to prioritise and differentiate network traffic and set bandwidth limits. Furthermore, the DFL-1600 supports Server Load Balancing (SLB), which allows network service demands to be shared among multiple servers, thus improving application performance and scalability.

The DFL-1600 can be remotely managed via a web-based interface or CLI through the RS-232 console port or a Secure Shell (SSH) connection. It includes flexible features to monitor and maintain a healthy and secure network, such as e-mail alerts, system log and real-time statistics. These features, along with the ability for firmware upgrade, ensure that your firewall can provide and maintain maximum performance and security for your network.

The DFL-1600 has passed rigorous testing by ICSA Labs, to achieve both Corporate-Level Firewall Certification and IPSec 1.2 Enhanced Certification. These are recognised worlwide as the benchmark for network security industry excellence. Testing is performed against an industry-approved set of criteria and is periodically reviewed to ensure that the vendor has continued to develop a secure product that meets all the criteria. In addition, the DFL-1600 has passed the Virtual Private Network Consortium (VPNC) AES Interoperability test, ensuring that the firewall is generally interoperable with other IPsec systems when using the AES encryption algorithm.

With an ultra-high approx. 11x zoom range covering everything from wide-angle to super-telephoto, Canon's latest professional series 'white lens' is designed for professional photographers looking to limit lens changes and overall kit weight. With Image Stabilization (IS) and high speed, silent auto focus, this superbly specified lens delivers what others can only imagine.

Canon's renowned IS technology compensates for approximately three stops with no perceptible increase in image blur. This vastly increases the range of circumstances in which hand-held photography is possible, limiting the need to carry a tripod. Major movement in a specific direction is detected as conscious panning and correction is halted in the relevant direction, thereby preventing shake-return.

The ultrasonic motor (USM) converts ultrasonic vibration energy into rotational force to deliver high-speed, high-precision, super efficient and virtually noiseless auto focusing, with good holding torque for rapid response, accurate stopping. The lens has full-time manual override. The 0.7m minimum focusing distance throughout the entire zoom range also makes it ideal for close-up magnifications.

Lens shape and coatings have been optimized to suppress ghosting and flaring, making the lens ideal for use with digital cameras that can be susceptible to reflections off the recording sensor. When fitted to digital cameras with an APS-C size sensor such as the EOS 10D, the lens has an equivalent focal length range of 45-480mm.

Beautiful contrast, low distortion and high corner-to-corner resolution is evident throughout the zoom range. An EMD (electromagnetic diaphragm) controls aperture for fast, quiet, highly precise control. A circular aperture diaphragm affords pleasing background blur, from full aperture to two stops down.

The EF 28-300mm features a rugged dust-proof and drip-proof construction, designed for professionals working under a wide range of harsh conditions.

The drive pattern is tailored to match the latest EOS range, extracting maximum benefit from the lens' speed advantage. Distance information offers higher precision focus-linked E-TTL II flash photography metering.
