3. Router Description
3G UMTS/HSPA router UR5i v2 is used to wirelessly connect various equipments and
devices via Ethernet interface 10/100 to the internet or intranet. Thanks to high data trans-
fer speed of up to 14,4 Mbit/s (download) and upload speed up to 5,76 Mbit/s it is an ideal
wireless solution for traffic and security camera systems, individual computers, LAN networks,
automatic teller machines (ATM) and other self-service terminals, etc.
As a standard, this exceptionally fast 3G router UR5i v2 is equipped with one Ethernet
10/100, one USB Host port, one binary input/output (I/O) port and one SIM card. To save
and backup communication data a version with two SIM cards is available. The wide range
of interface options of the 3G router further expands expansion Port1 and Port2, which are
selected by the customer. For Port1 are available: Ethernet port 10/100, serial interface ports
RS232, RS485, RS422, MBUS or inputs/outputs (I/O – CNT). Port2 may be equipped with
serial interfaces RS232, RS485, RS422, MBUS, wireless interfaces WIFI or WMBUS, SDH
expansion port or inputs/outputs (I/O – CNT). Both of ports can be fitted with internal switch
(exp. port SWITCH). This 3G wireless router is supplied either in a plastic or metal casing,
based on the requirements of the customer.
Configuration is done via web interface protected by password. The router supports cre-
ation of VPN tunnels using technologies IPsec, OpenVPN and L2TP to ensure safe communi-
cation. Web interface provides detail statistics about the 3G router activities, signal strength,
detailed log, etc. Cellular router supports functions: DHCP, NAT, NAT-T, DynDNS, NTP, VRRP,
control by SMS and many other function.
Other diagnostic functions ensuring continuous communication include automatic inspec-
tion of PPP connection offering an automatic restart feature – in case of connection losses, or
hardware watchdog which monitors the status of the router. With the help of a special window
(start up script window) you may insert Linux scripts for various actions. For some applications
the key option to create several different configurations for one 3G cellular router, the so-called
profiles (maximum of 4), and the option to switch between them (for example via SMS, binary
input status, etc.) is essential. Cellular routers may automatically upgrade configuration and
firmware from server. This allows mass reconfiguration of many routers in one time.
The router also supports additional software like R-SeeNet for permanent traffic monitoring
of routers or communication VPN server Digicluster.
