Robustel R5020-Lite
Industrial Dual-SIM 5G Router with 2x LAN, Serial & GNSS
The Robustel R5020-Lite is an industrial 5G router built to bring high-speed connectivity to branches and edge sites without the cost or delay of new fixed lines.
It supports global 5G/4G/3G bands and 3GPP Release 16, runs on RobustOS, and is managed at scale with RCMS for monitoring, configuration, and updates. Use Ethernet or Wi-Fi as the primary link with automatic failover to 5G/4G, or run 5G as primary; its ability to be mounted externally helps achieve stronger signal.
Security and interoperability are covered with IPsec, DMVPN, GRE, L2TP and more.
A software-configurable RS-232/RS-485 port connects legacy industrial devices to IP networks alongside LAN equipment. A compact metal enclosure with DIN-rail or wall mounting simplifies installation.
The result: fast, resilient 5G you can deploy quickly and manage centrally, at a cost that fits nationwide or even global rollouts.

Example R5020-Lite Use Cases
In-Vehicle Connectivity
Provide secure 5G backhaul for emergency services and fleets with in-vehicle computers, cameras, and location reporting via GNSS; manage updates and diagnostics centrally with RCMS.
SD-WAN 5G Backup
Add a cost-effective 5G backup path to SD-WAN appliances; external mounting improves signal; central monitoring and updates reduce the risk and cost of truck rolls.
High-Speed Industrial IoT
Add high-bandwidth 5G backhaul for robotics, video, telemetry, and data-heavy workflows at plants and yards. Reduce rollout time versus fibre; manage security and updates at scale.
