Pepwave MAX mobile router

Pepwave MAX mobile router


The Pepwave MAX mobile router gives you the ultimate in mobile connectivity. With the ability to combine a variety of wireless services, the MAX gives you maximum reliability through automatic link failover and scalability with multi-WAN load balancing and SpeedFusion™ bandwidth bonding. The Pepwave MAX brings wireline reliability to environments where no other solution can.

SpeedFusionTM Bonding Technology
Packet Level Bandwidth Bonding

SpeedFusion bandwidth bonding automatically distributes traffic across wireless links, increasing connection stability and making maximum use of all available bandwidth. And you can scale your bandwidth as you go simply by adding extra 4G LTE, 3G, or other wireless connections at any time. The MAX automatically switches to lower priority connections when primary connections fail due to signal or coverage issues. Your connection stays fast, and you stay seamlessly connected and productive.

Seamless Failover
Don't Let Stalled Connections Slow You Down.

The MAX automatically switches to lower priority connections when primary connections fail due to signal or coverage issues. And thanks to persistent session roaming powered by SpeedFusion technology, failover between fixed and mobile links is completely seamless. With other technologies, failover terminates existing connections, creating costly downtime. With SpeedFusion persistent session roaming, you won't miss a beat when your MAX switches between connections.

 


Certified Industrial Durability
Go Where Your Work Takes You. Without Worrying about Your Networking Equipment.

Built to withstand temperatures from -40 to 65°C and featuring ESD/surge protection for all ports, the Pepwave MAX is designed for worry-free performance everywhere you roam. Add industrial-grade shock/vibration resistance (EN 61373:1999 IEC 61373:1999), a terminal block for reliable power sourcing, and a rugged 10V-32V DC power supply, and you've got a mobile router that can take anything the road can dish out.

Embedded 4G LTE or World-Mode 3G Modems
GSM HSPA and CDMA EVDO. Standard.

Leave your external GSM and CDMA modems behind. The Pepwave MAX BR1 and HD2 features integrated 4G LTE or world-mode 3G modems for instant connectivity anywhere you go. Need more flexibility? The MAX 700 features USB interface supporting 150+ USB modems from carriers worldwide. And because the MAX is easy to configure and shock/vibration resistant, you can give your mechanic a break.

 

Military-Grade VPN Encryption 
256-bit AES Encrypted VPN Bonding. High Security for the Open Road.

The MAX is ideal for public safety and sensitive private communications. Our revolutionary SpeedFusion technology allows you to use all available Internet links to load balance and failover your traffic through 256-bit AES encrypted VPN tunnels. Since our SpeedFusion technology is designed from the ground up for multiple Internet connections, you can be assured of a secure connection wherever you are.
