How to Set Up Industrial Cellular Routers
Industrial router is used for long-distance interactive transmission of big data, and can adapt to various harsh environments such as high temperature. It provides reliable networking and secure communication for unattended system. Around us, industrial routers are used everywhere, including remote video monitoring, WiFi in buses, vending machines, etc.
What Is an Industrial Cellular Router?
An Industrial Cellular Router is essentially built for the purpose of providing internet access and network connectivity through different cellular gateways and channels. Data can be easily regulated and communicated between local networks sans wires and cables. Industrial cellular routers have a rugged build that makes it incredibly appropriate to be used under demanding and challenging circumstances.
Hardware Installation of an Industrial Cellular Router
The steps for installing an industrial cellular router are as follows:
- All the contents, accessories, and supplies that are required to install an industrial cellular router must be verified and checked for damage.
- The environmental requirements such as the required power input, power consumption, the operating temperature, and other such factors must be considered prior to the installation.
- The first set is to install the sim cards in the provided sim card slots on the router.
- Then, the router must be connected to the external antenna, which should be in the required frequency range.
- The router should be grounded to mitigate the possibility of any unnecessary noise.
- Then, it is important to mount the router on a horizontal surface or secure it on a wall.
- Lastly, before supplying power, the router must be connected to a personal computer via an ethernet cable.
Configuration of an Industrial Cellular Router
After connecting the router to the personal computer, a smooth and coherent configuration is essential for the proper functioning of the router.
- The process of configuration can be initiated through any suitable web browser with an easy-to-use interface for configuration such as Firefox or Chrome.
- The IP address of the personal computer must be obtained, which should have the same subnet as the router.
- Before configuring the router, it is important to log into it through the web browser, in order to configure or modify any changes.
- The cellular must be configured according to the required parameters by the user.
- The cellular connection will be up and running once it is able to obtain the correct and required IP.
