Teltonika Networks RUTM20 compact 5G cellular router

Bring cellular connectivity to compact POS installations, surveillance equipment and transport systems with the Teltonika RUTM20100500 RUTM20. Its Telit FN990A28 modem supports North America, EMEA and APAC, with 5G Sub-6 GHz standalone and non-standalone operation plus LTE and 3G connectivity. Two physical 2FF SIM slots and an integrated consumer eSIM provide carrier options, with storage for up to 7 eSIM profiles. Automatic SIM switching can respond to weak signal, usage limits, roaming, network rejection or a failed data connection. Data plans are separate. Connect wired equipment through one Gigabit Ethernet WAN port and one Gigabit Ethernet LAN port. The WAN port accepts IEEE 802.3af/at PoE, and the LAN port provides active PoE output up to 30 W when the input power conditions support it. This arrangement lets the router receive power over Ethernet and power a downstream device. Dual-band Wi-Fi 5 supports rates up to 867 Mbps, MU-MIMO and up to 150 simultaneous connections. Access point and station modes, wireless mesh and fast roaming support different local network layouts. Run secure remote connections through WireGuard, OpenVPN, IPsec, Tailscale or ZeroTier, with firewall rules and VLAN separation controlling access between devices. RutOS supports wired, mobile and Wi-Fi WAN failover, load balancing and dynamic routing. Modbus TCP, OPC UA, BACnet/IP, DNP3 and MQTT functions connect industrial equipment to monitoring applications. A dual-core 880 MHz processor, 256 MB DDR3 memory and separate NOR and NAND flash support the platform. Teltonika RMS, SNMP, TR-069 and the Web API provide remote administration paths.
