Industrial routers can be installed indoors or outdoors, in corners or on desktops, in mountains or underground, and anywhere there is a signal. But to ensure the best performance from your industrial router, it’s best to choose a good location to get the signal and configure a responsive environment.
What are the system environmental requirements for installing an industrial router?
A Windows-based PC/AT compatible computer or Ethernet data device with an RJ-45 interface supporting 10/100Mbps data transfer rates.
Each workstation must have the TCP/IP network protocol installed.
RJ-45 Ethernet twisted pair cable for connecting to Ethernet.
Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher browser is used to test whether the connection is successful and to enter the settings page for settings.
One AC power outlet.
What are the environmental standards for using industrial routers? Or what environment is suitable for using 4g industrial routers?
1. High and low temperature
The working range of civilian routers is usually 10-40 degrees, and this temperature is also the indoor temperature suitable for the human living environment (too low or too high can easily make you sick). The working temperature of industrial routers usually ranges from -25 to -40°C, and the high temperature ranges from 70-85°C, or even higher. This wide temperature range is suitable for various harsh industrial application environments such as underground, mountainous areas, on dams, and water conservancy.
2. Dust environment
The dust environment not only has a negative impact on the human lungs and respiratory tract, but also interferes with signal transmission. When the dust density is too high, the working machine will have inaccurate accuracy, and the main machine will be unable to perform effective operations due to dust jam. During the signal transmission process, intermittent connection status will occur, affecting the entire network transmission process. It has been reported that factories have suffered serious economic losses due to lax dust control in the production environment.
3. Power supply stability
The root causes of power supply instability mainly lie in two aspects: first, the transient alternating current is too large when the device switches at high speed; second, the inductance existing in the current loop. When a weak inductance occurs and the power supply cannot work stably, the entire network transmission work is intermittent, and the transmitted data will be incomplete. Unstable power supply is like an unstable foundation of a building, making it impossible to build a high-rise building.
4. Impact resistance
Impact resistance is the embodiment of industrial router hardware protection. For example, hardware protection such as anti-surge, anti-static, anti-pulse, and anti-lightning can help industrial routers not be affected by external shock environments. At the same time, hardware gatekeeping can promote the stable operation of industrial routers 24/7 without downtime.
5. RS232/485 serial port
In industrial transmission environments, serial port networking is relatively common. Therefore, industrial routers all reserve serial ports. Even if conventional industrial routers do not have RS232/485 serial ports, they can be customized and added according to customer needs. For example, some industrial routers. Most of the conventionally sold industrial routers do not have a serial port, but if the customer needs a serial port, it can be added at any time. Regular products do not have a serial port, which also saves customers networking costs. But if you have serial port networking needs, it can be met at any time.
In addition, if the transmitted data is relatively private, it can also be transmitted through the APV/VPN private network of the industrial router to ensure data security and reliability.
When installing an industrial router, you need to try to place the industrial router horizontally, as high as possible, so that it can easily receive signals and be relatively close to the computer. Also keep the antenna upright to avoid networking in humid environments. In order to obtain better signals, please do not place the 4g industrial router in a hidden environment, and stay away from interference sources such as metal partitions and high-voltage lines.
