Intelligent cellular routers for industrial IoT and enhanced networking

Advantech offers a wide range of smart cellular routers and gateways for Industrial IoT and Enhanced Networking, including 5G, LTE, 3G HSPA+, UMTS, EDGE and GPRS. Constructed and optimised for critical infrastructure applications in the most challenging and remote locations and environments, their simplified plug-and-play designs, with extensive remote management, allow users to quickly configure, deploy and customise any installation from anywhere over an IP network.

The versatility of industrial 5G and 4G applications requires hardware fit for purpose. The company offers a comprehensive selection of routers and gateways designed and built in the European Union with the right data speeds, interfaces, and the needed rugged specifications.

The line between a router and an embedded computer is blurring in many of the latest applications, and depending on the processing power required, an intelligent router is significantly more cost-effective than an embedded computer. New data demands for IIoT or operations optimisation initiatives also open further questions about where data is compiled, enriched, and processed.

The company's range of cellular routers and gateways for IIoT and enhanced, flexible, effective and secure networking include ICR-2000, ICR-2400, and ICR-2500 4G entry-level routers LTE Cat.4 with 3G/2G fallback industrial popular port options up to 4× Ethernet 10/100.
