How to select the 4G industrial router is correctly?
The 4G industrial router is designed with an industrial-grade design, so mostly it is also used in the industrial industry to ensure stable and reliable data transmission. It is an industrial-grade multi-functional IoT terminal device.
There are more and more IoT manufacturers of industrial routers on the market in recent years. So, various inconsistent 4G industrial routers have been produced, making it difficult for users to select. How to select a right 4G industrial router and brand is better, which will a problem for the users.
Let's discuss how to correctly select an industrial router for your project.
1. From the function
We need to according to the project regulations required to select the function and main parameters of the 4G industrial router. If there are unique requirements, you may need to consider the customization
2. From the application Since it is the model selection of 4G industrial routers, then home-level wireless routing is not considered. The application field of the industrial router According to the regulations of the project, it is enough to select the 4G industrial router whose main parameter index values are matched.
For example, the winter temperature in some areas is about - 20°C-40°C, so outdoor industrial production projects must work normally at that temperature, and 4G industrial routers with a wide temperature range must be choosed.
If the 4G industrial wired router is used in the intelligent public transportation system software, it is necessary to consider the equipment with higher transmission rate for the projects.
3. From the operator's point of view Generally, industrial routers with five-mode and twelve-band are suitable for most projects.
4. From the amount of devices The key to select the amount of devices is based on the specific business scale of the project and the total number of devices on the Internet. Generally, in the natural environment of large shopping malls, there are many connected devices, and a wireless router with a higher capacity must be choosed. If not a must, 24 wireless network intervention machines can be considered for most industrial projects.
5.From the interface aspect The computer interface is generally WLAN port, LAN port, 4G socket, and even the choice of serial communication (RS242485422), depending on if the socket considers the project requirements. For example, some industrial routers do not have serial port communication, so it is not necessary to consider the need for internal serial port communication to connect to the network; some projects do not need too many WAN ports, and can select wireless routing with fewer WAN ports, which is more cost-effective.
