01 / WHY iR800B

Speed alone is not enough for critical infrastructure

iR800B is engineered not only for 5G performance, but also for resilient paths, device recovery and demanding field environments.

5G MULTI-RAT

5G readiness is about more than speed.

iR800B supports both 5G and LTE, allowing both network generations to be used while DSS and spectrum refarming progress in parallel.

MEASURED PERFORMANCE / iR800B

Carry measured 2.45Gbps into the network beyond.

iR800B measured 2.45Gbps DL. Its 10GbE RJ-45 and 10GbE SFP+ interfaces are designed to carry 5G performance beyond the 1GbE ceiling into the wired network.

2.45GbpsMEASURED DL

* Measured values are from specific test conditions and do not guarantee throughput on commercial networks. The asynchronous UL result is a device/interface performance test and does not represent an operational scheduling condition. Maximum CA configuration depends on model and network conditions.

03 / NON-STOP CONNECTIVITY

Not all redundancy is the same

Dual SIM only describes how many SIMs are installed. What matters for continuity is how many networks remain registered and how many links can carry traffic at the same time.

iR800B-107 + iS201B

Keep two 5G links Active with a third already Registered

Connect iS201B to iR800B-107 over USB to add a second, independent 5G communications device. The system can provide 3 SIM / 3 Concurrent Registration / 2 Active Links.

MODEL + iS201B COMPARISON

Choose the redundancy architecture for the mission

Both configurations provide 3 SIM and 2 Active links, but the registration state of the internal SIMs is different. SIM A / B / C are logical link labels; the physical SIM interfaces are nanoSIM Slot 1 / Slot 2.

iS201B connects to one of the three USB 3.2 ports on the front of iR800B. Its Active 5G data link is handled as an additional WAN path and routed through the wired interfaces on the rear.

05 / MISSION CRITICAL USE CASES

Build non-stop connectivity
from challenges found in the field.

Deploying mobile and 5G connectivity in demanding field environments reveals challenges that specifications alone cannot show. iR800B turns that experience into the next communications infrastructure.

NETWORK TRANSITIONLOCAL 5G → CARRIER 5G
01 / RAILWAY & MOBILITY

From station to station.Stay connected as networks change.

For mobility environments where connectivity changes between local 5G at stations and carrier 5G between them. Multi-network architecture is designed to reduce interruption during transitions.

03 / INDUSTRIAL & ROBOTICS

Do more thanjust connect 5G.

Approximately 9.5 ms End-to-End RTT was measured with iR800B in a local 5G test environment. 10GbE and edge computing support low-latency architectures for robotics and remote control applications.
