Effortlessly Manage All Devices Anytime Anywhere at Any Scale

The 5G NR indoor router has two variants, NR5101 for on-premise solution and Nebula NR5101, which allows it to deliver consistent high-quality network connectivity for business-critical operations by Nebula cloud solution anytime anywhere with ease.

Centrally provisioning and seamlessly monitoring all networking devices, including access points, switches and firewalls, within your organization across distributed locations from the Nebula platform, while keeping your network aware of constantly changing devices. If your deployment requires on-premise solution without the need for cloud monitoring for device status, NR5101 is the device for you. Once you have inserted your 5G SIM card and connected the power, you can easily configure the router for connection to the Internet and configure LAN, WiFi and security settings.

Next-Gen Connectivity

When 5G meets WiFi 6, they can boost larger bandwidth and capacity than legacy solutions. These two cutting edge technologies come together in the NR5101, bringing new heights to performance and capacity for mobile users and IoT devices in commercial buildings. NR5101 deploys AX1800 WiFi 6, which can deliver up to 4x the speed compared to WiFi 5.

Multifunction Router, All Up to You

NR5101 is not only a simple network router, but it also combines WLAN AP, LAN gateway, and USB 2.0 functions all into one box. Its WiFi 6 can share up to 64 wireless devices simultaneously. Operates both in bridge and router mode, making the device easy to deploy and integrate into your existing environment. NR5101 offers more than just 5G, the variety of usages are entirely up to you!

Cutting-edge Connectivity

NR5101 is equipped with the cutting-edge 5G technology, connections for downlink speeds can go up to 5 Gbps with 6 built-in 5G/LTE/3G antennas. Designed for those who need a consistent high-speed connection when traditional wired broadband is slow, spotty, or unavailable. Its WAN failover capability ensures that you'll have internet access even during a network outage, which can make it serve as a primary or backup option for internet access. Its external antenna ports also allow you to improve signal reception.
