The Features and Selection Guide of Cellular Router

Cellular Router plays a vital role in industrial application scenarios and is an important network foundation for the normal operation and work of the industrial Internet of Things. Compared with other common routers, Cellular Router is required to have a high-end application material and performance due to the particularity of its application scenarios and the complexity of its application environment. Cellular Router has its own advantages that cannot be duplicated in terms of application functions and use environment. Let's take a look at the features of Cellular Router today. How should a business choose a high-quality, powerful Cellular Router?

Main Features of Cellular Router

• Reliable networking and communication

It uses high-performance industrial-grade wireless modules and industrial-grade components with high stability and high precision. The -35~+75ºC extremely wide temperature design can withstand low and high temperatures. It can work even in high and cold environments with very good stability.

• That data process and transmission speed are high.

The processing speed of an Industrial Router CPU is 3 times faster than that of an ordinary Cellular Router, the transmission speed of WIFI is increased to 150Mbps, and the capacity of built-in FLASH and RAM is increased by two times, which can meet the wireless transmission of large amounts of data and make pictures and videos clearer and smoother.

• Powerful WIFI

WIFI supports 802.11b/G/n, also supports WIFI AP, AP Client, repeater, relay bridging, and WDS, and supports WEP, WPA, and other encryption methods, which greatly meet the needs of WIFI communication. WIFI is designed with built-in integration, so the stability of the product will be very strong.

• Provide supporting equipment management platform

It supports centralized management, batch configuration, and upgrade of a large number of devices, making the implementation and management of large projects more efficient.

• Real-time display of signal strength

It can display the network signal strength at any time, so it will be more convenient to manage.

• Powerful VPN tunnel technology

It fully supports IPsec, L2TP, PPTP, 0penVPN, GRE, APN, VPDN, and other mainstream VPN technologies, and uses high-intensity and multi-level data encryption to ensure safer data transmission.

How to choose a high-quality Cellular Router?

Choose a suitable Cellular Router from many aspects, such as product scalability, product stability, price, technical support, and so on.

1. Extensibility

Some 4G Cellular Routers have only two network ports, and some do not support serial ports, so the compatibility of subsequent projects should be taken into account when purchasing.

2. Stability

The stability of the device is very important, which is related to the stability of the entire network data. The equipment needs to support software restart and hardware watchdog to ensure that it runs for a long time without any problems when no one is on duty.

3. Price

Because of cost considerations, price is an important factor for many users to consider.

4. Technical support

Unlike ordinary routers, many 4G Cellular routers use VPN, port mapping, and other network technologies. If you are not familiar with the network, you may encounter problems in the process of using it. Therefore, it is very important for a company to provide timely technical support and respond quickly to customers.

5. Product chip

Cellular Router supports -20℃ to 75℃ usage environments, so the project implementation environment needs to be considered.

6. 4G frequency band

4G Cellular Router supports 4G/3G/2G of China Telecom, China Mobile, and China Unicom, eliminating the trouble of changing cards.
