IRG5140+ Cellular LTE Router

The Perle IRG5140+ LTE Router has the most comprehensive set of features, functionality, and performance to provide primary or failover back-up connectivity to remote infrastructure and assets. This DIN Rail mountable, rugged, high-performance Cellular Router, with dual-SIM slots, is easily deployed with no need for training because of the intuitive web GUI. For advanced admin scrips, CLI commands are also available.

The IRG5140+ LTE Router provides fast and reliable network connectivity where wired options are impossible to deploy or require a backup. This is crucial for enabling a wide range of applications while ensuring the highest degree of security to protect the integrity of critical services. Reduce the cost of downtime and service calls, and bringing distributed sites online faster. With support for Data, SMS, Voice, and Video, the IRG5140+ can be integrated into any enterprise cloud, building, industrial, or mobile location network infrastructure.

• Building and process automation controllers, Internet of Things (IoT)
• Smart grid assets (meters, switches, controllers), Telco infrastructure controllers
• SCADA, Distribution management systems, Remote data loggers, flow meters, sensing equipment
• Digital signage, ATMs, POS, Kiosks, Temporary "pop-up” stores
• Video surveillance, Mobile hotspots
• Fleet management, GPS/GNSS Location tracking, Taxis, vehicle area networking (VAN)
• Transit systems, Buses, Metro Subways, Railways

Cellular Band Operation Certified Worldwide over 4G LTE, DC-HSPA+, HSPA+, HSPA, and UMTS (WCDMA)

The Perle IRG5140+ Router is LTE-A PRO CAT12 with 600Mbps downlink and 150Mbps uplink speeds. 24x LTE Bands and 9x UMTS/WCDMA Bands are support for extensive carrier compatibility.

An Edge Router with Enterprise-Grade Routing Capabilities

Perle does not charge any annual subscription or license fees to maintain operation, download software updates, or access features. The IRG5140+ router has all the of the advance routing functionality found in the most advanced enterprise routers. Extensive protocol routing support means it can be easily deployed in hierarchical or large mesh network structures. A fast CPU and lots of memory ensure the router can handle a consistent and heavy workload all day long.

• RIP, RIPv2, RIPng, OSPFv1/2/3, BGP-4, VRRP
• When BGP peering with multiple ISPs, the IRG5140 delivers carrier-grade routing performance that is capable of handling the full internet routing table
• IPv4 & IPv6
• OpenVPN & IPSec VPN
• DHCP & DHCPv6
• IP Passthrough for deployments requiring the router to operate in Gateway or Bridge mode
• Route between any interface (LTE, Ethernet, or USB)
• Reduce unwanted network traffic by creating collision and/or broadcast domains

Integrated Zone-Based Policy Firewall

The IRG5140 built-in firewall offers intuitive policies for multiple-interface routers to protect inside networks from unauthorized access by users on an outside network. The firewall also protects inside networks from each other, for example, by keeping a human resources network separate from a user network. If there are network resources that need to be available to an outside user, such as a web or FTP server, these resources can be placed on a separate network behind the firewall, in a demilitarized zone (DMZ). The firewall will allow limited access to the DMZ, but because the DMZ only includes the public servers, any attacks there will not affect the inside network. The firewall controls when inside users access outside networks (for example, access to the Internet), by allowing only certain addresses out, by requiring authentication or authorization, or by coordinating with an external URL filtering server. A deny-all (blacklist) policy can be used to prohibit traffic between firewall security zones until an explicit policy is applied to allow desirable traffic.  Router ports are assigned to zones and firewall inspection policies are applied to traffic moving between the zones. Firewall inter-zone policies come with considerable flexibility and granularity so that different firewall inspection policies can be applied to the same router port.

High Availability Access and Enhanced Security with 2 Factor Authentication

With multiple concurrent VPN sessions and 2 Factor Authentication, Perle IRG5140 Routers enable secure communications to multiple back-end systems.

• Remote authentication (RADIUS, TACACS+, LDAP) management, integrates with enterprise-grade systems to control access to devices in the field.
• Software image CRC control protects the software upgrade process against unwanted software corruption and malware
• High-speed OpenVPN, IP Security (IPsec), Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES), and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption for data privacy over the Internet.
• Intrusion prevention enforces security policies in a large enterprise or service provider networks.
• Perle's cloud-based centralized management solution puts all your network and IT infrastructure into a single application and provides secure reliable access and visibility during normal operations and critical network failures. Scalable to suit any business requirement, Cloud Centralized Management reduces human error and guarantees repeatability.

GPS / Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Included

GPS and GNSS (Galileo, Glonass, and Beidou) are included by default in the IRG5140+ Router. This enables real-time location tracking of remote assets. Also, you can get real-time network clock updates in the router, or any attached equipment, for accurate time-stamp usage in time-sensitive applications.

Cutting-edge design certified for a wide range of deployment scenarios

High-performance components and features enable customers to take advantage of broadband network speeds while running secure concurrent data, voice, and video services. The IRG5140+ router has high MTBF rates because it is developed with certified high-end components to provide superior reliability and uninterrupted operation.

Dual-SIM LTE Failover for true Business Continuity

The Perle IRG5140+ Router comes with redundant SIM slots to ensure reliable network connectivity and cellular multihoming support in LTE and HSPA-based networks. This is particularly useful:

• When the primary carrier contract data cap has been exceeded, the IRG5140 will automatically switch over to a back-up data plan.
• When the IRG5140 is deployed in a mobile environment long-distance roaming can be enabled and used.
• When there is a lack of coverage, or carrier network failure, the IRG5140 will automatically switch over to a back-up carrier.
