B+B SmartWorx/Advantech ICR-4434W CELLULAR ROUTER CAT12 5X ETH WIFI

The ICR-4434 is a High-Speed 4G Router & Powerful Edge Computing Gateway focused on the global market. The LTE-A Cat.12 worldwide connectivity with 3G fallback is an ideal choice for high demand data transfer in IoT/M2M applications. Due to the high-speed data transfer of up to 600 Mbps (download) and up to 150 Mbps (upload) this router is an ideal solution for specialized M2M devices and IIoT. It serves well also for the wireless connection of traffic and security camera systems, individual computers, LAN networks, Industrial systems, and various self-service terminals

The new router platform "v4" provides intelligence at the network edge with an extremely powerful Cortex A72 CPU at 1200 MHz, 4 GB eMMC memory, 4 MB flash memory, and 1024 MB RAM. The focus on high security underlines using TPM 2.0, and the Tamper Button that ensures safe use in industrial systems.

The ICR-4434 is powered by the ICR-OS Linux operating system that provides a wide range of enhanced networking features. A secure Web interface allows users to configure and manage routers from remote locations. The router supports multiple configuration profiles, automatic firmware updates, etc. The router can be used as a powerful edge computing gateway because of the support of many ways of software customization. Users may insert Linux scripts and add new features by additional applications called Router Apps (User Modules).

There is an existing free library of Router Apps or the user may create own app using Advantech SDK. The gateway can easily run applications like Node-RED or Docker that open the way to a multi-container world.

The ICR-4434 is designed and manufactured for use in tough environmental conditions. Specifications include a wide operating temperature ranges from -40 to +75 °C. It accepts input voltage range from 9 V DC to 48 V DC and is equipped with sleep mode for reducing electrical consumption.

As a standard, ICR-4434 is equipped with five Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mbps (1× independent and 4× switch), SFP cage (independent port), one USB host 2.0, microSD reader, serial lines RS232 and RS485, CAN Bus, two binary inputs, and two binary outputs. This router contains two SIMs readers, which are placed on the rear side of the device. ICR-4400 has two mPCIe connectors that can be used for two WiFi modules. The router is supplied in a robust metal casing for a wall mount (DIN mount is optional).

To streamline management and deployment of the ICR-4434 router family can be easily managed using a comprehensive cloud-based tool WebAccess/DMP. This software tool enables centralized management, provisioning, and monitoring of multiple routers, simplifying the process of scaling and maintaining a network infrastructure or centralize management of VPN connections.
