PLANET ICG-2510W-LTE is a reliable, secure and high-bandwidth industrial-grade cellular gateway for demanding mobile communications applications, machine-to-machine (M2M), and IoT deployments. It features 4G LTE, 2.4G/5G Wi-Fi, five Ethernet ports (four LAN and one WAN), a serial console port, DI and DO interfaces, and VPN technology. These are all bundled in a compact yet rugged metal case. It establishes a fast cellular connection between Ethernet and serial port equipped devices.
The ICG-2510W-LTE supports LTE 2x1 DL MIMO technology, which can reach a download (DL) speed of up to 150 Mbps and an upload (UL) speed of 50 Mbps. The cellular gateway also supports multi-band connectivity, including LTE FDD/TDD, WCDMA and GSM, for a wide range of applications.
To enhance reliability, the ICG-2510W-LTE is equipped with dual SIM slots that support failover and roaming over to ensure uninterrupted connectivity for mission-critical cellular communications. The ICG-2510W-LTE also supports load balance function to improve network efficiency. It provides a more flexible and easy way for users in public places to create an instant network sharing service via 4G LTE. The ICG-2510W-LTE industrial-grade cellular gateway now has ICASA certification and is legal to operate in South Africa.
