Cellular routers

Overview

Lantronix cellular routers are ruggedized industrial routers that provide 4G LTE or 5G WAN connectivity with Ethernet LAN ports, and on some models serial, Wi-Fi and I/O. Most models run a Linux-based OS and offer an SDK so integrators can build and install custom applications. They can be managed locally through a web UI and CLI, or remotely through Percepxion and standard protocols such as SNMP, TR-069 and LwM2M.

Built for

Cellular primary or backup WAN for remote sites
Utility and energy telemetry
Serial equipment over cellular
Vending, kiosks and digital signage

Key features

LTE and 5G models

The range covers LTE Cat 1 bis (NTC-201), Cat 1 (NTC-220), LTE-M to Cat 4 (E210) and 5G NR (NTC-500).

Linux and SDK

NTC-201 and NTC-220 run a Linux-based OS with an SDK for applications in ANSI C, shell script and Lua.

Serial and I/O

NTC-220 and E210 include RS-232 (with RS-485 options) and configurable I/O for industrial equipment.

Dual SIM

E210 supports dual SIM in single standby, and NTC models accept an optional soldered-down MFF2 SIM.

Remote management

Routers support HTTPS web UI, SSH CLI, SNMP v3, TR-069, LwM2M and MQTT, depending on model.
