R2120-5G

Industrial Dual-SIM 5G NR Cellular PoE-PSE Router with RS-485

The Robustel R2120 5G is an industrial cellular PoE router designed for field deployments where connected cameras, controllers, sensors, access devices, and legacy equipment need reliable high-capacity backhaul from a single compact router.

Built around the same practical PoE-PSE architecture as the R2120 platform, the 5G variant adds 5G NR SA/NSA connectivity with broad global band support, while retaining five Gigabit Ethernet ports, four 802.3af/at PoE-PSE ports, dual SIM, Wi-Fi, RS-485, digital I/O, and remote management through RCMS.

For systems integrators and operators, this makes the R2120 5G especially useful in distributed sites where several IP devices must be powered, connected, monitored, and remotely maintained without adding separate PoE switches, cellular gateways, or site visits for basic recovery tasks.
