The R5020 Lite is Robustel’s new 5G capable router supporting global 5G, 4G and 3G bands. The R5020 Lite leverages our tried and tested high performance CPU platform and RobustOS 5 – an Operating System developed in-house by Robustel that has passed extensive 3rd party penetration testing.
The R5020 Lite is Robustel’s new 5G capable router support 5G, 4G and 3G Network. The R5020 Lite leverages our tried and tested high performance CPU platform and RobustOS 5 – an Operating System developed in-house by Robustel that has passed extensive 3rd party penetration testing.
R5020 Lite is compatible with 3GPP Release 16 and targeted at the following applications:
Broadband Failover – R5020 Lite can be configured to use Ethernet or Wi-Fi as primary internet and failover to 5G/4G in the event of an outage. This can help provide resilience to shops and small offices at a reasonable cost and provide sufficient bandwidth for many users. IPsec, DMVPN, GRE+ many more protocols can be used for connections into core networks.
Primary Broadband – Cellular network operators can now provide unlimited 5G tariffs at very reasonable prices. For many, a chance to cut the cables and use a wireless internet connection can be technically or commercially favorable.
SD-WAN – whilst many appliances have cellular options built-in, the R5020 Lite can offer a very low-cost way to add a 5G backup route & by virtue of being able to located externally to the appliance, is more likely to get a good 5G signal!
RCMS is Robustel’s free router monitoring service that is fully compatible with the R5020 Lite. It is an extremely polished piece of software hosted on MS Azure & available as a privately hosted instance.
