An Industrial Router is a device with a ruggedized enclosure and internal components, built to handle harsh conditions, that provide secure connectivity and communications over a cellular network. Industrial routers provide the communications backbone for all applications that run in outdoor environments, including true industrial applications like mining, oil and gas and agriculture, as well as digital signage and smart cities applications like street lighting, metering and wastewater management.
While industrial-grade switches and routers provide many security features, you need industrial firewalls to control communication between devices and secure communication across the entire network.
