Winsonic NE22005-103111 Industrial 5G VPN Router
Overview
The Winsonic NE22005-103111 is an industrial-grade 5G VPN router engineered for mission-critical cellular connectivity in the harshest operating environments. It provides high-speed 5G/4G/3G wireless mobile broadband with dual SIM failover, ensuring uninterrupted communication for SCADA, remote monitoring, and distributed control applications.
Designed for industrial networks, the NE22005-103111 combines a 1× WAN plus 3× LAN Gigabit Ethernet switch, dual-band 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi access, RS232/RS485 serial ports, and 2 digital inputs plus 2 digital outputs in a rugged aluminium enclosure with DIN-rail mounting and a wide 9–48VDC power input range.
Engineering & Design
The router is built on a fanless aluminium housing with IP30 ingress protection, a built-in hardware watchdog, and an operating temperature range from -30°C to +70°C, with an extended range to -40°C to +85°C for extreme installations. Every serial and I/O interface is protected against transients, with ±15KV ESD protection on the serial ports and 3KVDC isolation on the digital I/O.
Connectivity is managed by an intelligent connection manager that detects link failures through ping detection, ICMP probing, and timer reboot, automatically switching between the two SIM slots when data limits are reached, the network is denied, or the data connection fails. This ensures resilient uplinks for always-on industrial applications.

Compatibility & Integration
The NE22005-103111 integrates directly with existing Ethernet, serial, and wireless infrastructure and supports Modbus protocol conversion through its App Center, allowing legacy serial field devices to be bridged onto modern IP networks without hardware changes.
For projects that must run for years without intervention, our engineers pre-configure each router to your network requirements and ship it with complete documentation.
The Winsonic NE22005-103111 industrial 5G VPN router provides the 5G uplink for the remote connection, and the Winsonic NE22005-103111 industrial 5G VPN router supports the cellular failover for the critical links.
The Winsonic NE22005-103111 industrial 5G VPN router is used for the remote stations, and the router is mounted in the telemetry cabinet.
Why Seven Star LLC
As the official authorized representative of Winsonic in Oman, Seven Star LLC supplies Winsonic networking equipment with manufacturer documentation, and provides technical support from Muscat for projects across the Sultanate and the wider GCC.
Every unit is verified for configuration and firmware, and our engineers assist with deployment planning, VPN setup, and ongoing technical support for the lifetime of the project.
Deployment Planning for the NE22005
Cellular links succeed or fail on site conditions, so survey before you install. Check 5G and 4G coverage at the actual cabinet location with a test handset or a trial unit, ideally from both mobile operators if dual SIM failover is part of the design. Remote wellsites, pumping stations and pipeline valve stations in the interior of Oman often have good 4G but patchy 5G, and the router falls back automatically, so size the application for the slower network.
Before configuration
- Obtain data SIMs with a suitable data plan; for VPN access to the site, ask the operator whether a private APN or public IP is available.
- Decide the VPN topology: which end initiates the tunnel, and whether OpenVPN, IPsec or GRE matches the head-end firewall.
- Allocate the LAN subnet so that it does not overlap with the control room network on the other end of the tunnel.
- List the serial devices to be bridged, with their baud rate, parity and Modbus addresses.
Installation and Antenna Practice
Antenna placement matters more than any configuration setting. Inside a metal cabinet the signal can drop sharply, so use external antennas mounted on the cabinet roof or a short mast, with low-loss cable kept as short as practical. Use all the cellular antenna connectors provided, because the multiple-antenna design relies on them for throughput. Seal the cable entries, and because the housing is rated IP30, always install the router inside a suitable enclosure outdoors, shaded from direct sun.
Security and Maintenance
- Change the default passwords at first login and disable any management service that is not needed on the WAN side.
- Use the firewall to allow only the VPN and required services; avoid exposing Modbus or the web interface directly to the internet.
- Keep firmware current and keep an exported configuration file for each site so a replacement unit can be restored quickly.
- Use the digital inputs for cabinet door or power-fail alarms, and SMS notifications for alerts at unmanned sites.
Troubleshooting
If a link keeps dropping, check signal strength and quality first, then the SIM data allowance, then the link-detection settings; an over-aggressive ping check can cause unnecessary SIM switches. Where serial devices stop responding through the gateway, confirm the RS485 wiring polarity and termination before changing software settings.
Seven Star LLC can supply the router with pre-loaded configuration and suitable antennas for telemetry projects across Oman and the GCC. Share your site list and network design, and we will confirm the lead time and documentation.
