Introduction

The DD500E is a compact, IP-capable Data diode designed specifically for industrial installations. Utilizing internal optical technology to provide a physically enforced one-way data flow, it securely exports data from critical networks, enabling automated data collection without compromising network security and maintaining the air-gap's protective characteristics.

Key features are:

• Physically separated networks - the source and destination networks are physically separated, ensuring robust security.
• Compact design - its small form factor is optimized for tight spaces in industrial environments.
• Native UDP support - uses UDP for efficient data transmission.
• Separate configuration interface - a dedicated interface for easy configuration and management.
• DIN Rail mounting - designed for easy installation on DIN rails, fitting into industrial set-ups.
• PoE (Power over Ethernet) - simplifies power supply needs, reducing wiring complexity.
• Industrial certifications - certified to meet industrial standards for exposed environments.

Security recommendations

Before installing and taking the DD500E into operation, any impact according to organisational security policies should be considered.

note

• The device should only be configured while disconnected from the intended operational environment.
• Make sure the Configuration Application laptop is handled according to organisational security policies applicable for the intended operational environment.
• Firmware should never be updated while the device is connected in an operational environment.
• Further information on security recommendations can be found in Recommended Security Management.
