Industrial 5G Router Robustel R5030-B
The Robustel R5030-B is a high-performance industrial 5G router designed for deployment in demanding industrial environments. This device combines cutting-edge 5G technology with rugged hardware, delivering stable connectivity where reliability and data transfer speed are critical.
Network Connectivity and Wireless Technologies
The router supports 5G/4G/3G connectivity with global band coverage according to 3GPP V15/16 standards. For maximum connection stability, it features dual SIM slots, enabling automatic failover. The integrated dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) operates in both Access Point and Client modes, ensuring high-speed local networking even in environments with a large number of connected devices. The multi-constellation GNSS module (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and more) makes the router ideal for telemetry tasks and real-time location tracking, while digital inputs and outputs (1× DI, 1× DO) facilitate seamless integration with industrial systems.
Application Examples
The versatile Robustel R5030-B-5G-A30EU, equipped with Wi-Fi 6 and GNSS, is designed for maximum efficiency across a wide range of IoT applications:
- Passenger Wi-Fi: Buses, trains, and vehicle fleets requiring internet access for passengers with captive portal options.
- Branch and Enterprise WAN: 5G as the primary connection or backup for wired broadband, with automatic failover.
- Smart Transportation and Logistics: Real-time vehicle telemetry and tracking using integrated GNSS.
- Public Infrastructure: Kiosks, ticket vending machines, signage, and public Wi-Fi access with secure captive portals.
Network Interface and Power Supply
The router is equipped with five Gigabit Ethernet ports that can be configured as WAN or LAN. The ETH0 port supports PoE-PD, which allows the router to be powered directly via an Ethernet cable without the need for an external power source. The router can be powered from 9-36 V DC or via PoE-PD (42.5-57 V), making it suitable for industrial and transportation applications.
Design and Installation
The device is housed in a compact metal enclosure with flexible mounting options—on a DIN rail or wall—for easy and robust installation in cabinets and vehicles. The IP30-rated metal housing and operating temperature range of –25°C to +70°C ensure durability even in extreme conditions.
E-Mark Certification for Vehicle Use
The Robustel R5030-B has obtained E-Mark certification, a mandatory safety certification for motor vehicles and their components within EU member states. Thanks to 5G and Wi-Fi technologies, it offers a simple and effective solution for high-speed internet in public transport vehicles.
Data Security
Data security is a top priority, which is why the R5030-B supports a wide range of VPN tunnels (WireGuard, IPsec, OpenVPN, GRE).
Cloud Service (RCMS)
Operation and management are simplified using the Robustel Cloud Manager Service (RCMS), which enables centralized monitoring, configuration, data collection, and remote updates for a large number of devices, minimizing operational overhead. A three-month free trial of RCMS is included.
