Description
The Semtech AirLink XR60 Dual Ethernet is touted as the world’s smallest rugged 5G router, designed for high-performance connectivity in challenging, space-constrained environments such as industrial settings and vehicle applications. This ultra-compact device, measuring just 118 x 39 x 98 mm, packs advanced technology including 5G cellular capabilities for theoretical peak downlink speeds up to 2.8 Gbps and uplink speeds up to 900 Mbps. The “Dual Ethernet” variant is specifically equipped with two Ethernet RJ45 ports (one 1 Gbps and one 5 Gbps), distinguishing it from the Single Serial/Single Ethernet version. Furthermore, the XR60 is built for durability, featuring an IP64-rated sealed aluminum housing and meeting MIL-STD-810H standards for shock, vibration, thermal shock, and humidity, ensuring reliable operation in extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to +70°C. Its robust feature set also includes dual SIM holders, 7 to 36 VDC input voltage, and Ignition Sense with time delay shutdown, making it ideal for mobile and mission-critical applications.
Beyond its core cellular and rugged capabilities, the XR60 is equipped for modern networking demands. It includes optional 2×2 MIMO Wi-Fi 6, supporting dual-band 2.4 and 5.0 GHz frequencies with a theoretical peak throughput of 1200 Mbps, and capacity for up to 32 clients. For enhanced security and integration, it supports a 175 Mbps IPSec VPN TCP throughput with FIPS 140-2 Level 1 compliance, and features an advanced stateful firewall. The router also supports edge computing via Docker containerized applications, utilizing a Quad Core Arm A53 64 bit CPU, 1.2 GB of RAM, and 750 MB of Flash storage. Connectivity is further extended by a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C port offering power delivery and 5 Gbps LAN networking, a GPIO, and Dual-band 40 Channel GNSS. Customers benefit from AirLink Complete, which typically includes 5 years of hardware warranty, technical support, and secure remote management via the AirLink Management Service (ALMS), guaranteeing longevity and optimized network performance for this essential piece of infrastructure. The combination of high-speed 5G, advanced wired/wireless connectivity options, and an exceptionally durable, compact design positions the AirLink XR60 as a versatile and reliable solution for demanding high-bandwidth deployment scenarios across global regions.
