PRODUCT DATASHEET

R1520
Industrial Dual SIM Cellular VPN Router
Suitable for 2G, 3G, 4G networks

INTRODUCTION KEY FEATURES

The R1520 router from Robustel is a versatile 4G router with 5 x Ethernet ports,
GPS and E-mark certification for in-vehicle use. Cost-effective & high performance
Other hardware features include optically isolated digital inputs and outputs as 3G/4G router
well as a 10-bit analogue input capable of interfacing directly with sensors in the
range of 0 to 24Vdc or 0 to 20mA. Rugged design with 9 to 36Vdc power
R1520 also has a 2-wire RS485 interface for connection to legacy instruments with “Global” 4G version available
full support for Modbus. The RS232 port features RTS/CTS lines so the product can E-mark certification for in vehicle use
accommodate applications that require hardware handshaking.
Optically isolated digital IO
Despite being cost-effective, the R1520 is a powerful router with high packet-
forwarding capability – way beyond the typical requirements of LTE CAT4 networks. 10-bit Analogue interface for direct
The Linux based Operating System, RobustOS, has been developed entirely in-
house which leads to a very high standard of technical support and infrequent sensor connections
firmware updates due to modular nature of the OS. Many unique software Supports Dual SIMs & Wifi/Ethernet as
innovations are built on top of RobustOS, these include:
RobustVPN – highly flexible hosted VPN service so customers can easily enjoy a WAN
“fixed IP router”
Data-Guard – invaluable failsafe in case of a system failure and runaway data usage Cellular keep-alive and fast failover
Smart Reboot – SMS tool to push roaming SIMs from a non-working to working
state Extensive range of software “apps” for
Sniffer – run a Wireshark trace directly on the router for invaluable diagnostic enhanced functionality
information. Customers can also easily write their own applications using the
extensive SDK supplied free of charge. RobustVPN – hosted service providing
RCMS is Robustel’s free router monitoring service that is fully compatible with the a “fixed IP” router
R1520.It allows customers to see a location overview of their routers quickly and
simply on a map.Features such as data usage, signal strength, current network and IPsec/OpenVPN/GRE/L2TP/PPTP/DMV
much more can then be viewed on a per router. Over-the-air updates are PN supported
supported for Firmware, router configuration and Apps serving as essential
‘insurance’ if anything was not quite right during deployment. Extensive global certifications
