Solar Energy Management & Edge Connectivity
Overview
A solar plant runs inverters, string monitors, and battery controllers that need a live link to the energy-management platform. An edge router at the site processes local data and backhauls it over cellular, so generation and storage are monitored and controlled remotely without laying fibre to the array.
Challenges
- Solar arrays sit on remote land with no fixed connection
- Inverters and controllers speak industrial protocols, not plain IP
- Generation and battery data must reach the management platform continuously
- A dropped link hides faults that cut yield
Benefits
- Edge processing and cellular backhaul at the array
- Continuous inverter, string, and battery telemetry
- Remote monitoring and control without civil works
- Fast fault visibility to protect generation yield
Recommended Products
RUTC50
The RUTC50 pairs 5G at up to 3.4 Gbps with Wi-Fi 6 and five Gigabit Ethernet ports. 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of flash leave room for edge workloads on the router itself, and it serves up to 512 wireless clients across dual SIM and eSIM.
- 5G - Ultra-high cellular speeds of up to 3.4 Gbps
- ENHANCED PROCESSING - 1GB RAM and 8GB flash for edge computing applications

RUTX50
The RUTX50 is a 5G industrial router reaching speeds up to 3.3 Gbps, with dual-SIM failover and five Ethernet ports. Where 5G isn't available it falls back to LTE Cat 6, and OpenVPN, IPsec, and DMVPN secure site-to-site links.
- 5G - Ultra-high cellular speeds of up to 3.3 Gbps
- DUAL SIM - With auto failover, backup WAN and other switching scenarios
- SA & NSA - Supports both architectures to leverage the 5G infrastructure

RUT956
The RUT956 is a 4G LTE Cat 4 industrial router with dual SIM for automatic failover and four Ethernet ports. OpenVPN, IPsec, and DMVPN secure remote sites, and dual SIM keeps fixed installations and machine-to-machine links online when one network drops.
- CONNECTIVITY - 4G LTE (Cat 4), 3G, 2G
- DUAL SIM - With auto failover, backup WAN and other switching scenarios
- MULTIPLE INTERFACES - Ethernet, Serial (RS232, RS485) and multiple Inputs/Outputs
