Thanks to its robust security the SC5-4xIP offers you great flexibility in how it
integrates into an existing network structure. The SC5-4xIP is designed to reside
either on an internal network, behind a firewall/router or alternatively with its
own direct Internet connection.

configuration. A common cause of potential problems can be in clashes with
firewall configurations. For this reason the SC5-4xIP is designed to be intelligent,
flexible and secure. With the minimum of effort it can reside either behind the
firewall or alongside with its own separate Internet connection.
