High‑Speed 5G Internet

The biggest advantage of the Teltonika RUTX50 is its 5G connectivity.

It supports 5G Sub‑6 GHz in both Standalone (SA) and Non‑Standalone (NSA) modes. Under network conditions, Teltonika specifies download speeds of up to 3.3 Gbps.

This makes the Teltonika RUTX50 suitable for applications that need cellular connectivity, including video transmission, industrial data, remote offices and other high‑bandwidth applications.

What is 5G SA and NSA?

In terms:

• 5G NSA uses existing 4G infrastructure together with 5G.
• 5G SA operates using a 5G standalone network.
• The Teltonika RUTX50 supports both, helping it work with 5G network deployments.

4G LTE Cat 20 Backup

The Teltonika RUTX50 is not limited to 5G.

When 5G is unavailable, the router can use 4G LTE Cat 20 with speeds of up to 2 Gbps download under supported network conditions. It also supports 3G.

This backward compatibility makes the Teltonika RUTX50 useful in locations where 5G coverage’s not yet available or where network conditions change.

Dual SIM for Reliable Connectivity

The Teltonika RUTX50 has two Mini SIM slots.

You can use two SIM cards. Configure the router to automatically switch connections when the primary connection fails or when configured network conditions require a change.

This is particularly useful for:

• – Remote offices
• – Industrial sites
• – Transportation
• – CCTV systems
• – Remote monitoring
• – Business continuity
• – Temporary installations

Teltonika lists SIM switching, automatic failover, data/SMS limits, operator selection, and band management among the Teltonika RUTX50’s mobile networking functions.

Five Gigabit Ethernet Ports

The Teltonika RUTX50 includes five RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet ports.

The configuration is:

• 1 × WAN, configurable as LAN
• 4 × LAN
• 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet

The Teltonika RUTX50 provides plenty of wired connectivity for computers, switches, industrial equipment, CCTV cameras, access points and other network devices.

Dual-Band Wi‑Fi 5

It supports Wi‑Fi 5 (802.11ac Wave 2) on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.

It supports wireless transmission rates of up to 867 Mbps along with MU‑MIMO technology and up to 150 simultaneous Wi‑Fi connections according to Teltonika documentation.

It allows businesses to connect laptops, tablets, smartphones, industrial terminals, sensors and other compatible wireless devices.

GNSS / GPS Connectivity

The Teltonika RUTX50 includes GNSS support for positioning applications.

Supported satellite systems include:

• GPS
• GLONASS
