EtherWAN's C4G Series is a high performance ruggedized Dual-SIM 4G router, developed for the world's most demanding mission critical applications, connecting network assets and infrastructures in fixed and mobile (vehicle/ train/subway/health) deployments for public, transit (i.e. stop lights), industrial equipment (i.e. video surveillance), field (i.e. oil pipes) and health (i.e. hospitals) deployments.

The C4G Series offers extensible multi-network connectivity from 1 to 4 Ethernet ports: Dual-SIM Cellular (up to CAT12 / 600Mbps), Wi-Fi AC (up to 866Mbps) & Ethernet (1Gbps ports), USB, RS232, RS485 & I/O ports supporting vehicle power connectivity and GNSS (GPS, Galileo, Glonass, Beidou). The C4G Series comes in two enclosure types: a) die cast aluminum enclosure with optional DIN Rail bracket and b) native DIN Rail industrial-grade enclosure. The router supports best-in-class link protection to ensure secure connectivity for all field applications and mobile assets through Dual-SIM and multiple diversity protocols.
