Questions
RX54x2 questions and answers
Which RX model do I need?
Decide two things. Network: 4G LTE (RX44, RX44x2) or 5G RedCap with LTE fallback (RX54, RX54x2). Redundancy: one cellular module, or two independent modules in the x2 versions that keep the link up if one network fails.
What is the difference between LTE CAT.4 and CAT.6?
CAT.4 reaches up to 150 Mbps downlink and falls back to 3G (HSPA) and 2G (EDGE, GPRS, GSM). CAT.6 reaches up to 300 Mbps and falls back to 3G only; there is no 2G on CAT.6.
What is 5G RedCap?
RedCap (Reduced Capability) is a lighter 5G NR profile defined in 3GPP Release 17 for industrial IoT. RX54 delivers up to 220 Mbps downlink and 120 Mbps uplink and falls back to LTE where 5G coverage is limited.
Which models have GNSS?
The single-module RX44 and RX54 include a GPS, GLONASS and Galileo receiver. The dual-module RX44x2 and RX54x2 do not.
Can the router be powered over Ethernet?
Yes. Passive PoE-in on Ethernet port 1 accepts 8–30 V, in addition to the 8–30 V DC Microfit4 power input.
Which VPN tunnels are supported?
OpenVPN (one server and several clients), IPsec IKEv1/IKEv2, WireGuard, GRE, EoIP, PPTP, L2TPv2/v3 and DMVPN.
