Powerful Cellular Connectivity
The integrated CAT-7 modem achieves downlink speeds of up to 300 Mbps and uplink speeds of 150 Mbps. The router supports a wide range of LTE bands (B2, B4, B5, B7, B12, B13, B14, B25, B26, B41, B42, B43, B48, B66, B71) as well as 3G fallback on B2, B4, and B5. This makes it certified for all major US carriers – AT&T, FirstNet, T-Mobile, and Verizon – ensuring reliable connectivity across North America. Two SMA antenna connectors ensure optimal reception, while the redundant SIM slots (Nano-SIM, Peplink eSIM, BYO eSIM with two profiles) provide seamless failover.
Security and Reliability
The deliberate omission of Wi-Fi and GPS eliminates potential attack vectors, making the MAX BR1 Mini the top choice for security-critical telemetry and IoT installations. A stateful firewall with DoS prevention and web blocking protects the network, while IPsec and SpeedFusion VPN (256-bit AES) enable encrypted site-to-site networking. The device is built for harsh industrial environments: operating temperatures from -40 °C to 65 °C, humidity from 15% to 95% (non-condensing), and certifications to UL/CUL 62368-1 and UL 121201 (Class I, Division 2) confirm its suitability for demanding environments.
Management and Integration
The router can be managed via the web interface, command line, or the cloud-based InControl platform. Comprehensive network features such as VLAN support, DHCP server with advanced options, static routing, NAT (1:1, Many-to-One, NAT Pool), as well as SIP and H.323 ALG simplify integration into existing infrastructures. Quality of Service (QoS) allows prioritization of applications such as SIP, HTTPS, or VPN, while SNMP v1/v2c/v3 and Syslog enable professional monitoring. The optional PrimeCare license also activates Hot Failover, WAN Smoothing, and bandwidth bonding for maximum reliability.
