MAX BR2
The Peplink MAX BR2 is a rugged, dual-cellular LTE router built for unbreakable connectivity in remote, industrial, and mobile environments.
The MAX BR2 features two embedded LTE modems with redundant SIM slots, plus external WAN options (Ethernet, USB, Wi-Fi as WAN), delivering reliable high-speed connectivity even in the most challenging locations. It supports Peplink’s SpeedFusion technology (with PrimeCare subscription) for hot failover, smoothing, and bandwidth bonding. The fanless metal enclosure, wide temperature range, ignition sensing, GPS, and remote SIM management (eSIM, FusionSIM, RemoteSIM) make it ideal for zero-truck-roll installations. Priced around $599, it’s cost-effective for large-scale fleets, ATMs, power banks, or remote monitoring.
