Why Choose a Perle 5G / LTE Router

The quality of LTE Router that you choose will affect the uptime of your network.

Robust And Reliable

Perle LTE Routers have high MTBF rates, Class 1 Div 2, shock, and vibration resistant certification. They are made from trusted components that can withstand the harshest environments and operating temperatures of -40°F to 158°F (-40°C to 70°C). We back-up this reliability with a best-in-class Warranty.

Enterprise-Class Routers

With extensive routing protocol support, Perle IRG Routers can be easily deployed in hierarchical or large mesh network structures. RIP, RIPv2, RIPng, OSPFv1/2/3, BGP-4, VRRP, IPv4, IPv6, OpenVPN, IPSec VPN, DHCP, DHCPv6 and more. Operational as a Router, Gateway or Bridge.

Integrated GPS / GNSS

GPS and GNSS (Galileo and Glonass) are included by default in all IRG Routers and Gateways. This enables real-time location tracking of remote assets. Also, you can get real-time network clock updates in the router, or any attached equipment, for accurate time-stamp usage in time-sensitive applications.

Testimonials

…we tested cellular routers from Perle, Cradlepoint, and Sierra Wireless. Perle’s power consumption was half of the competitive products. That, along with the fact the Perle did not have the SIM card recognition issues…, made our decision to choose the IRG Routers easy.

Christoph Tieben - Team Leader Robot-Control at DFKI

We decided to try Perle IRG LTE Routers when the Verizon rep confirmed compatibility, which guaranteed there would be no problems when activating new sim cards. We have been impressed with the throughput of the IRG Router and its ability to handle multiple HD streams.

Will Litrell - Owner of Eli Controls

For us to coordinate our resources most effectively, we continue to rely on the IRG5500 as our connectivity point in international crisis areas. We appreciate the support Perle has provided.

Roland Beuge - First Responder at MTF

The IRG LTE Routers allowed us to implement a reliable and manageable cellular-based setup that we are very happy with. The system is flexible and entirely independent.

Philip Leonelli - CEO at Greenville Electric

The Perle Routers fit the bill. Other manufacturers offered either WiFi or cellular routing, but not both, which was critical in this redundant solution design.

5G & LTE Router Applications

Enterprise Networking

Distributed enterprises rely on a complex network of hundreds or thousands of regional locations. Each location is connected to headquarters via a critical Internet connection to support all sales and payment transactions. Downtime costs for a small office, restaurant, retail store, kiosk, or temporary location, even with 99.5% landline availability, can be in excess of $1M per year. A Perle IRG Router can provide primary or failover capability that is quick to deploy and simple to manage.

Industrial Networking

Remaining operational 24/7/365 is imperative in the industrial world. One minute of downtime can adversely impact customers, operations, and revenue. In unmanned remote areas undetected problems can be catastrophic. Therefore, deploying a high performance IIoT solution is vital. A Perle IRG Router can provide reliable and secure connectivity designed for harsh and hazardous environments, giving operations and IT real-time awareness with remote monitoring, control, and management to enhance operational efficiency and effectiveness.

Vehicle Networking

Mobile workers in vehicles, or on the move at remote or temporary work sites, need anytime, anywhere access to the tools available in the office. At the same time, organizations operate more efficiently by knowing the location and status of their mobile assets. IRG5500 Routers have been developed specifically for mobile mission critical applications in public safety (including support for FirstNet Band 14), transit, field services, and in-vehicle applications.
