Industrial 5G Router Robustel R5020 Lite with GNSS
The compact industrial router Robustel R5020 Lite makes high-speed 5G connectivity accessible for applications requiring fast data transfer and low latency, such as in the IoT sector. Thanks to full backward compatibility with 4G and 3G networks, it forms a highly stable and flexible foundation for modern digital infrastructure.
Robustel R5020 Lite Use Cases
- In-Vehicle Connectivity: The router provides a secure 5G backbone connection for emergency services and corporate fleets. The R5020-Lite enables reliable connection of onboard computers, camera systems, and GNSS positioning units. Furthermore, the RCMS platform offers centralised management of updates, diagnostics, and overall device operation.
- 5G Backup for SD-WAN: By supplementing an SD-WAN solution with affordable 5G connectivity, you gain a reliable backup for critical systems. External device installation helps maximise signal quality and ensures a more stable connection even in demanding conditions. Centralised monitoring and remote updates effectively reduce operational risks and service callout costs.
- High-Speed Industrial IoT: Deploying a 5G backbone network enables the fast connection of robotics, video surveillance, telemetry, and other data-intensive applications in manufacturing plants. Compared to building optical fibre infrastructure, this solution offers significantly faster implementation while simplifying the mass management of security and updates.
Connectivity and Hardware
The Robustel R5020 Lite features two Gigabit Ethernet ports for fast wired connections and an integrated Wi-Fi network (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac). High operational reliability is ensured by two SIM card slots with backup connection support (failover). The router also includes a GNSS module for precise positioning.
The robust metal housing allows for reliable operation in a temperature range from –25 °C to +70 °C.
Product Video
The product video provides information about the features of the Robustel R5020 Lite 5G router and presents specific use cases.
E-Mark certification for use in vehicles
The Robustel R5020 router has achieved E-Mark certification for in-vehicle use. This is a mandatory safety certification for motor vehicles, systems, components and technical parts of member countries in accordance with European Union directives. With its 5G technology, the router offers a simple and effective solution for increasing the speed of Internet connections using Wi-Fi technology. This makes it ideal for vehicles that carry passengers.
RobustOS Operating System
Like other Robustel models, the R5020 Lite utilises the RobustOS system. Built on Linux, it excels in stability and security. The intuitive interface enables quick configuration, while SDK support opens the door to integrating custom applications and features tailored to your project.
Cloud Management with RCMS
Another advantage is the RCMS cloud platform, designed to work seamlessly with RobustOS, which fully unlocks the potential of Robustel products. It offers advanced tools for remote network monitoring, management, and diagnostics, thereby demonstrably reducing operational costs. For each device, you also get a detailed overview of mobile data consumption, signal quality, and the current connection status.
