Description
The SPECTRE Cellular industrial router is used to wirelessly connect Ethernet equipment
and other devices to the Internet or intranet. Thanks to the high data transfer speed of up to
100 Mbit/s download (LTE models) and 50 Mbit/s upload (LTE models), 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.
The standard configuration includes one 10/100 Ethernet port, one USB Host port, one
binary Input/output (I/O) port and dual SIM card holders. Network redundancy is provided by
the second SIM card holder. It also contains 2 auxiliary ports for connecting to other types of
networks such as RS-232, RS-485/422, Digital/Analog I/O, or they can be configured to
provide additional switched Ethernet ports. The function of each port is dependent upon the
specific router model.
Configuration of the router may be done via a password-protected Web interface. The router
supports the creation of VPN tunnels using IPsec, OpenVPN and L2TP to ensure safe
communication. The Web interface provides detailed statistics about the router's activities,
signal strength, etc. The router supports DHCP, NAT, NAT-T, DynDNS, NTP, VRRP, control
by SMS, and many other functions.
The router provides diagnostic functions which include automatically monitoring the PPP
connection, automatic restart in case of connection losses, and a hardware watchdog that
monitors the router status. The user may insert Linux scripts to control various router
functions and create up to four different configurations for the same router. These
configuration files can include different SMS functionality and binary input configurations.
You may switch between different configurations whenever necessary. The router can
automatically upgrade its configuration and firmware from your central server. This allows for
mass reconfiguration of numerous routers at the same time. Additional software like
SmartCluster VPN Server and R-SeeNet for router monitoring are also supported.
