This package combines the R2155 exterior-mounted 5G router without Wi-Fi and a 5-year NetCloud Mobile Performance Essentials subscription. The router incorporates cellular antennas and passive GNSS. SIM cards and an AC power supply are not included; power is accepted through DC input or compatible PoE.
No. This R2155 configuration has no Wi-Fi capability. It connects onboard equipment through one 2.5 GbE LAN interface and provides cellular connectivity through its embedded 5G and LTE modem. Networks requiring wireless client access need a separate Wi-Fi access point or router.
The router accepts 9–36 VDC through its attached DC cable or power from an 802.3at Type 2 PoE source. Ignition sensing supports automatic startup and delayed shutdown. Use a 3 A fuse for 9–24 VDC installations or a 2.5 A fuse above 24 VDC.
This package includes NetCloud Mobile Performance Essentials, with centralized management, software updates, support and hardware warranty coverage tied to an active subscription. Advanced coverage mapping, intrusion prevention and detection, and web filtering belong to the Advanced service tier, which requires an additional license.
