MAX BR1 Pro CAT-20

The Pepwave MAX BR1 Pro CAT-20 is a high-performance, compact mobile LTE router delivering gigabit-class speeds with an embedded LTE-A Pro CAT-20 modem (up to 2 Gbps downlink / 211 Mbps uplink), Wi-Fi 6, and a 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port for future-proof connectivity. It offers unbreakable reliability via SpeedFusion, intelligent failover, and full cloud management — ideal for mobile, branch, remote, and demanding applications.

Key Features & Benefits

• Sonic LTE Performance — CAT-20 modem provides up to 800% faster speeds than the original BR1 Pro, with extensive global LTE bands and 3G fallback.
• Wi-Fi 6 Ready — Simultaneous dual-band (2.4/5 GHz) 2×2 MU-MIMO for faster throughput, reduced congestion, and support for multiple devices with less interference.
• Unbreakable Connectivity — SpeedFusion with Hot Failover, WAN Smoothing, Bandwidth Bonding, and 256-bit AES encryption; supports up to 2–5 peers (PrimeCare required for advanced features).
• Multi-WAN Flexibility — 1x 2.5G/GE WAN (convertible to LAN) + embedded LTE with redundant SIM slots + Wi-Fi-as-WAN.
• Gigabit Wired — 2x Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports for high-speed clients.
• Advanced Networking — Intelligent load balancing (Weighted, Priority, Lowest Latency, etc.), stateful firewall, DoS prevention, IPsec VPN, QoS with application prioritization, VLAN, NAT, port forwarding, captive portal.
• GPS Integration — Built-in GPS for location tracking and fleet management via InControl 2.
• Rugged & Certified — Wide temperature range (-40°C to +65°C), compact low-profile design, certifications including FCC, CE, RoHS, E-Mark, EN61373 (shock/vibration), EN50155 (railway), and carrier approvals (AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon).
• Cloud Management — InControl 2 for remote configuration, monitoring, firmware updates, and fleet oversight.
• PrimeCare Ready — Optional/complimentary subscriptions unlock enhanced support, features, and warranty.
