Product Introduction
ABB NE870 3BSE080239R1 is an 11-port industrial router and firewall from the ABB NE800 series, purpose-built for System 800xA distributed control systems. The unit segments client/server networks from control networks, creates RNRP tunnel zones between redundant networks, and enforces security zones aligned with IEC 62443 principles.
The router supports ABB’s Redundant Network Routing Protocol (RNRP), enabling two physically separate network paths to eliminate single points of failure. The built-in firewall filters unwanted traffic between zones. DIN-rail mounting, redundant power input (16–60 VDC), and a wide industrial temperature range make it suitable for panel-level installation in control rooms and field cabinets.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the difference between the NE870 and NE871?
A: The NE870 is an 11-port router (8 × 10/100 + 3 × Gigabit), while the NE871 is a 3-port router. They share the same RNRP and firewall functionality but differ in port count and physical footprint. Verify which model your 800xA network design specifies before ordering.

Q: Is this unit compatible with my existing 800xA system?
A: The NE870 is certified towards 800xA and designed for the NE800 network family. However, you should confirm firmware version compatibility with your 800xA release and check that your RNRP network topology matches the unit’s port configuration.
