Winsonic NE24005-101111 Industrial 4G Energy Consumption Gateway
Overview
Winsonic NE24005-101111 is a compact industrial 4G gateway purpose-built for energy metering and consumption-monitoring networks, with standby power and power-failure alarm functions to keep reporting alive during outages. Built on Winsonic’s industrial networking platform, the NE24005-101111 pairs a cellular or wired WAN uplink with 1x 10/100Mbps Ethernet port plus 1 additional RJ-45 Ethernet interface and 1 drawer-type SIM/UIM slot (1.8V/3V), giving system integrators a single rugged box that keeps critical field networks online even when a primary link fails.
As the official authorized partner and exclusive regional representative for Winsonic, Seven Star LLC proudly supplies the Winsonic NE24005-101111 to system integrators, utilities and industrial operators throughout Oman, Muscat and the wider GCC, with local technical support for every unit supplied.
Operating Principle
The Winsonic NE24005-101111 establishes its wide-area connection over 1 WAN port (configurable as LAN), negotiating with the mobile network or upstream fixed line and then routing, NATing and firewalling traffic between the WAN interface and its local 1x 10/100Mbps Ethernet port plus 1 additional RJ-45 Ethernet interface. 1 drawer-type SIM/UIM slot (1.8V/3V) lets the gateway automatically fail over to a backup operator or SIM the moment the connection manager detects a data-limited, denied or lost network condition, so field devices behind the router keep reporting without manual intervention.
All routing, VPN tunnelling and protocol handling run on the router’s embedded Linux platform (Linux OpenWrt), which supports IPsec, OpenVPN, L2TP, PPTP, GRE, GRETAP and VxLAN tunnels to carry field traffic securely back to a central SCADA host, cloud platform or VPN concentrator. The practical result for the operator is a single device that combines cellular WAN redundancy, industrial-grade protocol handling and centralised remote management through Winsonic’s StarCloud platform, with no moving parts and no field maintenance beyond periodic firmware review.
Engineering Design of the Winsonic NE24005-101111
The Winsonic NE24005-101111 is built around 128MB RAM, 32MB Flash and an industrial-grade cellular module, housed in a 150 x 105 x 30mm full-metal chassis, desktop, rail and wall mountable enclosure with IP30 ingress protection. Power is supplied via 9 to 48VDC input with optional standby power and power-failure alarm, with built-in reverse-polarity, overvoltage and overcurrent protection, and every Ethernet, serial and SIM interface carries dedicated isolation or ESD protection (1.5KV electromagnetic isolation on Ethernet, up to 15KV ESD on serial and SIM interfaces) to survive the electrical transients typical of industrial and outdoor installations.
Interface-wise the Winsonic NE24005-101111 provides 1 WAN port (configurable as LAN) and 1x 10/100Mbps Ethernet port plus 1 additional RJ-45 Ethernet interface, 4 independent isolated RS485/RS232-switchable serial ports for connecting multiple energy meters or field instruments directly, and 4 independent isolated RS485 interfaces (reusable as RS232), plus 1 RS232 console port, giving installers the flexibility to connect field controllers, cameras, meters or vehicle buses directly to the gateway. 4G full Netcom cellular uplink (Wi-Fi not fitted) extends connectivity to local wireless clients where fitted, and the unit is rated for ≥100,000 hours MTBF with a net weight of 0.82kg net / 1.02kg gross, reflecting Winsonic’s fully industrial, fanless design philosophy.
Key Features
The Winsonic NE24005-101111 bundles cellular redundancy, industrial protocol support and remote manageability into a single DIN-rail-ready device. Key characteristics include:
- 1 WAN port (configurable as LAN) combined with 1x 10/100Mbps Ethernet port plus 1 additional RJ-45 Ethernet interface for flexible WAN/LAN network architecture.
- 1 drawer-type SIM/UIM slot (1.8V/3V), ensuring continuity of service if a primary carrier fails.
- Comprehensive VPN suite: IPsec, OpenVPN, L2TP, PPTP, GRE, GRETAP and VxLAN.
- 4 independent isolated RS485 interfaces (reusable as RS232), plus 1 RS232 console port for direct connection of legacy and modern field instruments.
- 9 to 48VDC input with optional standby power and power-failure alarm with reverse-polarity, overvoltage and overcurrent protection.
- IP30 rated enclosure built for 150 x 105 x 30mm full-metal chassis, desktop, rail and wall mountable.
- Centralised remote management and firmware updates via Winsonic’s StarCloud / Star Device Manager platform.
- SNMP v1/v2/v3 support with traps, traffic statistics and alert thresholds for proactive network monitoring.
Industrial Applications
The Winsonic NE24005-101111 is specified wherever a site needs cellular WAN redundancy alongside 1x 10/100mbps ethernet port plus 1 additional rj-45 ethernet interface, particularly smart electricity, water and gas metering networks, substation energy monitoring, and any application requiring several independent RS485 meter buses reporting over a single cellular uplink with battery backup. Its combination of industrial protocol support, wide power input and extended operating temperature range makes it equally suited to unmanned outdoor cabinets and indoor control rooms across district cooling plants, RO desalination sites, and oilfield and utility telemetry networks.
As the officially authorized partner for Winsonic, Seven Star LLC distributes the NE24005-101111 to system integrators and utilities delivering resilient industrial networks throughout Oman and the GCC, including projects in the Sohar and Salalah economic zones and Muscat-area municipal and utility infrastructure that depend on continuous cellular backhaul.
