5G router for industrial, M2M, and edge applications
The Teltonika RUTM55 is an industrial 5G router designed for applications that need high connectivity, versatile interfaces, and robust system integration in one device. It supports 5G Sub-6 GHz in both SA and NSA operation and extends this with 4G LTE and 3G. This makes the router suitable for deployments that combine modern cellular access with broader network availability.
Dual SIM, eSIM, and flexible carrier handling
With dual SIM and integrated eSIM, the RUTM55 supports different carrier and backup strategies. Automatic SIM switching reacts to defined conditions such as weak signal, data limits, roaming, or connection failure. This is especially relevant for distributed installations where uptime and flexible cellular provisioning are key requirements.
Network platform with Wi-Fi, Gigabit Ethernet, and RutOS
For local networking, the router provides three Gigabit LAN ports, one Gigabit WAN port, and dual-band Wi-Fi 5. On the software side, RutOS delivers a broad feature set for routing, firewalling, VLAN, load balancing, failover, VPN, and remote management. This allows the router to fit into both conventional network infrastructures and industrial communication environments.
Serial interfaces, GNSS, and I/O for integration projects
The RUTM55 goes beyond standard router functionality by integrating RS232, RS485, GNSS, USB, and multiple I/O interfaces. These include a digital dry input, a galvanically isolated digital input, an analog input, an isolated open collector output, and a relay output. This feature set supports applications that need communication, positioning, and basic signal processing combined in a single device.
Built for demanding technical environments
The anodized aluminium housing, IP30 rating, and extended operating temperature range support use in industrial and technically demanding environments. DIN rail, wall, and flat-surface mounting are available with the required additional kit.
