RV50X Router, China
Overview
The AirLink® RV50 is the industry’s lowest power and most rugged LTE gateway. Simple to install and easy to manage, the RV50 industrial gateway is designed to connect critical assets and infrastructure. Ideal for industrial-Grade applications in energy, utilities, and smart-city infrastructure, the RV50 provides real-time remote connectivity for SCADA, distribution management systems and metering. With the lowest power consumption available on the market, the RV50 dramatically reduces infrastructure costs when running on battery or solar power, and provides programmability to enable edge computing applications, using the ALEOS Application Framework (AAF).
The AirLink® RV50X adds LTE Advanced capabilities, supporting an extensive range of LTE bands worldwide, including Band 28 and Band 12, and delivering up to 300 Mbps downlink speeds.
- LTE-Advanced performance at 2G power consumption – uses less than 1 watt
- Ideal for solar-powered applications
- Ruggedized, industrial Grade form factor
- Enables edge computing applications with ALEOS Application Framework (AAF)
- Remote, secure network management in the Cloud or in the Enterprise
- Includes the first Year of network management and support with AirLink Complete
- Dual SIM allows you to switch carriers if you are experiencing an outage with one carrier.
Rugged Design for Demanding Environments
Designed to withstand harsh industrial conditions, is the RV50 is capable of surviving 5 V brownouts and spikes from -600 VDC to 200 VDC. Certified as Class I Div 2, it is ideal for hazardous environments. The die-cast aluminum housing is sealed to meet IP64 for resistance to dust and water ingress.
The RV50 is tested to meet and exceed the MIL-STD-810G specification for shock, vibration, temperature, and humidity. The built-in power Supply protection makes it suitable for harsh electrical environments such as compressors, generators, and excavators.
Ultra-Low Power Consumption
The RV50 offers best-in-class power consumption combined with LTE performance and is optimized for battery and solar applications. It is the industry’s only LTE gateway with 2G power consumption, operating at 900 mW in idle mode. For 2G and 3G deployments migrating to LTE, the RV50 will work with existing power infrastructure, eliminating the need to invest in replacement solar panels or batteries. Standby Mode provides additional protection for batteries by dropping power consumption to 53 mW and can be triggered by timers, low voltage detection or I/O.
Simplified Deployment
Ideal for global deployments, the RV50X provides worldwide LTE coverage with just two product variants; one for North America and EMEA, and one for Asia-Pacific.
With support for network operator switching—automatic configuration of the radio, based on the SIM—the RV50 provides versatility and simplicity when changing between network operators at any time.
