WR310 Description
Core Purpose
The WR310 is an industrial 5G router built to give remote sites, machinery, and field assets a dependable way to get online. It brings 5G speed, secure networking, and flexible interfaces together in one compact unit designed for long-term operation. Its OpenWrt-based system provides a stable environment for routing, VPN, and management tasks, while the dual-core ARM processor keeps performance consistent even when multiple services are active.
Connectivity and Communication
The router uses 5G NR with LTE and WCDMA fallback so operations can continue smoothly in areas with mixed network availability. Dual SIM with automatic switching ensures continuity if a carrier experiences outages or weak coverage. Four gigabit Ethernet ports allow local devices—controllers, sensors, cameras or laptops—to connect directly without extra hardware.
Wi-Fi 6 adds fast short-range connectivity for staff access or equipment that needs wireless links. VPN options such as IPsec and OpenVPN enable secure remote access, while firewall tools help protect systems connected behind the router. Together, these features give operators a reliable way to link local equipment to cloud services, control rooms, or private networks.
Positioning and Tracking
The built-in GNSS module provides location data with high accuracy, which is valuable for mapping remote installations, verifying asset placement, or supporting mobile equipment deployments. Fast start times allow the device to regain its position quickly after power cycles or downtime. This helps ensure that monitoring platforms always know where each device is installed or deployed.
Monitoring and Remote Management
The WR310 constantly checks the health of its network connection. It can run scheduled link tests and automatically restore connectivity through reboot or SIM change if needed. Diagnostic tools—such as ping, traceroute, and packet capture—give technicians the ability to troubleshoot issues remotely.
SMS commands offer an additional fallback channel for reboots, SIM switching, or status requests when IP communication is unavailable. Queclink RMS provides centralized visibility across fleets, enabling firmware updates, configuration tasks, alerts, and analytics from a single platform. This reduces on-site work and speeds up responses to network issues.
Power and Environmental Design
With a wide 8–32 V DC power input, the WR310 integrates easily into most industrial cabinets and DC supply systems. The low typical power consumption helps when the device is installed in solar-powered or energy-limited sites. Its –30°C to 70°C operating range and aluminium enclosure make it suitable for demanding industrial environments.
DIN-rail mounting allows quick installation beside PLCs, meters, and other automation hardware. The rugged housing also helps manage heat and provides mechanical durability.
I/O and Expansion Options
RS232 and RS485 ports allow the WR310 to interface directly with legacy industrial equipment such as sensors, meters, and controllers. Digital I/O adds simple monitoring or control capabilities for doors, alarms, or relays.
Multiple SMA and RP-SMA antenna ports provide flexibility for 5G, Wi-Fi, and GNSS installations, ensuring stable links in cabinets or shielded environments. LED indicators show power, network, Wi-Fi, GNSS, mobile status and signal strength, making on-site checks quick and intuitive.
