Description
The Semtech Airlink XR60 is recognized as the world’s smallest rugged 5G router, designed specifically to deliver high-performance, durable, and reliable connectivity in demanding industrial settings and space-constrained vehicle applications. This ultra-compact device, measuring just 118 X 39 X 98 mm (4.6 x 1.5 x 3.9 inches), integrates cutting-edge technologies to ensure robust network capabilities where traditional hardware might fail. Key features include 5G cellular technology, offering impressive theoretical peak downlink speeds of up to 2800 Mbps and uplink speeds of 900 Mbps. Additionally, it supports optional 2×2 MIMO Wi-Fi 6 with a peak theoretical throughput of 1200 Mbps, accommodating up to 32 clients. For wired connectivity, the XR60 offers variants with either a Single Serial/Single Ethernet (1 Gbps) or Dual Ethernet (1×1 Gbps + 1×5 Gbps), along with dual RS-232/485 serial ports and a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C port that supports power delivery and 5 Gbps LAN networking. The router is also equipped with Dual-band 40 Channel GNSS for positioning.
Designed for high reliability and longevity, the XR60 features a sealed aluminum housing with an IP64 rating, protecting it against dust and splashing water. Its ruggedness is further validated by MIL-STD-810H compliance, covering resistance to shock, vibration, thermal shock, and humidity. The environmental specifications highlight its broad operating range, supporting temperatures from -40°C to +70°C, and up to +75°C for non-Wi-Fi variants, or -30°C to +70°C for Wi-Fi variants, ensuring performance in extreme conditions. The device is managed through the AirLink Management Service (ALMS) and runs on AirLink OS, providing secure remote management capabilities. For security, it includes a stateful firewall and supports WPA2/3 encryption, alongside VPN capabilities offering up to 175 Mbps IPSec VPN TCP throughput with FIPS 140-2 Level 1 compliance for secure data transmission. With the AirLink Complete service, the XR60 includes five years of hardware warranty, technical support, and secure remote management, positioning it as an ideal solution for critical infrastructure and mobile connectivity needs requiring both speed and durability. The combination of 5G, Wi-Fi 6, high-speed Ethernet, and a military-spec ruggedized design makes the Airlink XR60 a champion for demanding, limited-space environments.
