MAX BR1 ENT
Pure LTE Performance for Enterprise Failover
The Pepwave MAX BR1 ENT is an enterprise-grade LTE router delivering 300 Mbps throughput with automatic failover to embedded LTE — designed without Wi-Fi for maximum security and compliance in sensitive environments.
This compact, rugged device ensures unbreakable connectivity by seamlessly switching between primary wired broadband and high-speed LTE backup, making it ideal for mission-critical deployments where reliability and strict no-wireless policies are essential.
Redundant SIM Slots for Multiple Carriers
Redundant SIM slots with automatic switching for reliable network. You can also set the MAX BR1 to automatically switch SIM cards when you’re in danger of exceeding a data cap. It also allows you to travel across borders without changing SIM cards manually.
FirstNet Ready
FirstNet (band 14) provides first responders with a specialized LTE network with more priority and network capacity. The HD4 MBX supports band 14, providing additional coverage as the situation demands.
Meet Strict Security Compliance
Got a strict no-Wi-Fi security policy? Built without Wi-Fi, the BR1 ENT is a great choice for deployments with compliance requirements.
Terminal Block for Secure Power Supply
The MAX BR1 ENT is equipped with a terminal block for secure power installation.
HighSpeed Primary Line with LTE Backup
In case of a WAN failure, SpeedFusion Hot Failover technology powers the MAX BR1 ENT for instant failover between wired and cellular links as needed to keep your connection stable and fast.
PoE Output Option Available
Cut down on cabling and simplify deployments. With an optional PoE activation kit, the BR1 ENT supports 802.3af PoE Output, so one cable is all you need for both connectivity and power.
