5G Industrial Router Pro (Dedicated 5G Router for Video Surveillance)

Hello everyone, today I’d like to introduce you to a powerful 5G industrial-grade router—the SR510 5G Industrial Router. This router integrates 4G/5G networks, virtual private networks, and other technologies to provide a stable industrial-grade network solution, making it an ideal choice for deployment in video surveillance scenarios that require high-speed transmission and low latency.

The most significant highlight of this router is its support for 5G NR high-speed networks. Compared to 4G networks, 5G networks offer higher bandwidth and lower latency, which is crucial for surveillance applications that need to transmit high-definition video streams. It also supports various VPN technologies, enabling secure connections between company headquarters and branch offices for safe video stream data transmission.

The product features a fully industrial-grade design, allowing it to work stably in harsh environments such as outdoors, high temperatures, and strong magnetic fields, making it well-suited for use in factories, steel mills, chemical plants, and other similar settings. In terms of hardware, it is equipped with high-speed memory and large-capacity Flash, supports hot-swappable SIM cards, and features dual WAN ports. On the software side, it runs on a Linux system and supports a wide range of industrial communication protocols, enabling seamless integration with various industrial devices.

Moreover, the product boasts advanced security protection and intelligent maintenance functions. It supports traffic statistics, online link monitoring, and more, enabling real-time monitoring of network status and timely alerts when network anomalies occur. When used in conjunction with StarEasyLink’s Nebula management platform, it can achieve unified monitoring and maintenance of hundreds or even thousands of devices, significantly reducing management complexity.

Case Study Analysis

To enhance production safety, a power company decided to set up a high-definition video surveillance system between two power transmission stations. However, these two stations were located far apart in remote mountainous areas, making it difficult to deploy traditional wired networks. To address this, the company decided to use the StarRouter 510 5G industrial router to establish a wireless video transmission network.

The company installed StarRouter 510 routers at each of the two transmission stations and connected them to 5G antennas. The routers established IPsec VPN tunnels via the 5G network to connect with each other. High-definition network cameras at both ends were connected to the local area network through the router’s LAN ports, enabling real-time video stream transmission.

The routers feature a dual WAN port design, allowing simultaneous use of 4G and 5G networks for network redundancy and backup. If one network disconnects, the other can immediately take over, ensuring uninterrupted video streaming. The routers also have built-in traffic statistics functionality, enabling monitoring of network traffic status and setting traffic threshold alerts to promptly notify maintenance personnel when network congestion occurs.

This solution boasts a simple architecture and low investment costs, significantly shortening project implementation cycles. Since the system’s deployment, video quality has been stable and smooth with no latency. The 5G network has achieved long-distance wireless video transmission between high mountains, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the power transmission system. This fully validates the outstanding performance of the StarRouter 510 router in industrial wireless video surveillance applications.
