Sierra Wireless AirLink RV55 Compact Industrial LTE Router (No Wi-Fi)

Compact Industrial LTE Router for Remote Assets and SCADA Connectivity

Built for fixed and mobile industrial applications, the rugged LTE router provides reliable cellular connectivity for utilities, oil and gas, agriculture, environmental monitoring, critical infrastructure, SCADA and metering systems. The no-Wi-Fi LTE configuration supports LTE Cat 4 with theoretical download speeds up to 150 Mbps and upload speeds up to 50 Mbps, alongside Gigabit Ethernet, RS-232 serial, USB 2.0 and dedicated GNSS. Ultra-low power operation, a 7–36 VDC input range and configurable standby mode support battery and solar-powered installations, while an IP64-rated enclosure and -40°C to +70°C operating range provide protection for demanding environments. Integrated serial protocols, routing, VPN security and remote management through AirLink Management Service support deployment with industrial equipment and remote assets.

Key Features

• LTE Cat 4 Connectivity: Supports LTE Cat 4 with theoretical download speeds up to 150 Mbps and upload speeds up to 50 Mbps.
• Industrial Connectivity: Provides 10/100/1000 Ethernet, RS-232 serial and USB 2.0 Micro-B interfaces for connecting industrial and networking equipment.
• Dedicated GNSS: Incorporates a 48-channel dedicated GNSS receiver with tracking sensitivity of -162 dBm and support for active GPS antennas.
• Low-Power Operation: LTE idle power consumption is rated at 900 mW, or 75 mA at 12 VDC, with standby consumption of 53 mW, or 4.4 mA at 12 VDC.
• Flexible DC Power: Operates from a 7–36 VDC input for integration with industrial, vehicle, battery and solar-powered electrical systems.
• Battery Protection: Low-voltage disconnect helps prevent battery drain, while ignition sense provides configurable delayed shutdown.
• Transient Protection: Built-in electrical protection supports conditions including 5 VDC engine cranking and +200 VDC load dump.
• Configurable I/O: The power connector supports digital input, configurable dry-contact pull-up, digital open-collector output and analogue input functionality.
• Industrial Serial Protocols: Supports TCP/UDP PAD mode, Modbus ASCII, Modbus RTU, Modbus Variable, PPP and DNP3 interoperability.
• Network Routing: Supports NAT, static routing, port forwarding, Dynamic DNS, policy routing, IPv6 gateway functionality and VRRP.
• Secure VPN Connectivity: Supports IPsec, GRE and OpenVPN Client with up to five concurrent tunnels, split tunnelling, Dead Peer Detection and FIPS 140-2 compatibility.
• Network Security: Includes remote authentication, inbound and outbound port filtering, trusted IP controls, MAC address filtering and secure firmware updates.
• Rugged Environmental Protection: Operates from -40°C to +70°C, supports 95% RH at 60°C and carries an IP64 ingress protection rating.
• MIL-STD-810G Conformance: Designed for conformance to MIL-STD-810G requirements covering shock, vibration, thermal shock and humidity.
• Hazardous Environment Support: Class 1 Division 2 certification supports operation in applicable hazardous environments from -30°C to +60°C.
• Remote Management: Supports AirLink Management Service, local web user interface, AT command line interface, SMS commands and SNMP.
• Event Monitoring: Configurable event triggers can monitor digital inputs, network parameters, data usage, timers, power, device temperature and voltage without requiring programming.
• Compact Installation: The main body measures 119 × 33 × 85 mm and weighs 320 g, supporting installation where equipment space is limited.
• No Wi-Fi Configuration: The LTE variant provides cellular and wired communications without integrated Wi-Fi for industrial applications where wireless LAN connectivity is not required.

Compact dimensions, low power consumption and industrial interfaces make the router suitable for connecting remote equipment where conventional network infrastructure is unavailable. Its environmental protection, serial integration and remote management capabilities support continuous communications across fixed infrastructure, field equipment and mobile industrial assets.
