Overview

The Lantronix E214 (E214F00CS) is the China and India LTE Cat-1 model of the E210 Series industrial router. It covers LTE bands B1, B3, B5 and B8 plus TDD bands B40 and B41, with 3G and 2G fallback. The router combines dual SIM failover with two 10/100 Ethernet ports, Wi-Fi 4, RS-232 and two digital I/Os, and adds VPN, fieldbus protocol conversion and Percepxion management. It is a regional variant for China and India, not for North American networks.

  • 4G LTE Cat-1 on FDD bands B1, B3, B5, B8 and TDD bands B40, B41 with 3G and 2G fallback, for China and India
  • Dual SIM (single standby) with failover or load balancing across cellular, Ethernet and Wi-Fi
  • Two 10/100 Ethernet ports, 1T1R Wi-Fi 4 client/AP, full RS-232 port and two configurable digital I/Os
  • Modbus, DNP3 and IEC 60870-5-101/104 conversion, plus Modbus to MQTT, Azure and Cumulocity
  • OpenVPN, IPsec (up to 4 channels), WireGuard, L2TP, GRE and zone-based firewall
  • Percepxion, TR-069 and MQTT/s with TLS 1.3 for centralized management
  • Band set built for China and India, including TDD B40 and B41, with 3G and 2G fallback
  • Keep sites connected with two SIMs and automatic switching between cellular, wired WAN and Wi-Fi

The Lantronix E214F00CS is the China and India version of the E210 Series LTE Cat-1 router. It is a compact industrial unit for IoT and enterprise projects in those markets. The radio supports LTE Cat-1 on FDD bands B1, B3, B5 and B8 and TDD bands B40 and B41, with 3G and 2G fallback. It is not the right model for US networks. Lantronix offers the E214G000S (AT&T, T-Mobile) and E214G001S (Verizon) for North America.

The router supports dual SIM in single standby, using two mini-SIM trays. Failover or load balancing can be configured across cellular, Ethernet WAN and Wi-Fi, and SIM switching can be based on quality of service or on scripts you write. Interfaces include two 10/100 Ethernet ports (one WAN, reconfigurable as a second LAN), 1T1R Wi-Fi 4 as client or access point, a full RS-232 port on a 9-pin sub-D, and two configurable digital I/Os. RS-485 is available through the optional SC485 Snap Cap.

The Linux-based ePack software adds OpenVPN, IPsec (up to 4 channels), WireGuard, L2TP and GRE, plus a zone-based firewall, VLAN and DMZ. Protocol converters bridge Modbus, DNP3 and IEC 60870-5-101/104, and forward data to MQTT, Azure or Cumulocity. Developers can extend the router with the G520 SDK in Python or C/C++ and log data to microSD. The router can be managed centrally through Percepxion, TR-069 or SMS/OTA configuration.

The housing is brushed aluminum, measures 92.5 x 57.2 x 22.5 mm and weighs about 150 g. The router runs on 8–32 V DC and operates from -20 °C to +70 °C. Lantronix publishes a product brief, a quick start guide and user guides for the series.

Ideal for

  • Industrial automation and factory telemetry projects in China and India
  • Payment terminal, ATM and kiosk connectivity with dual SIM backup
  • Utility and infrastructure monitoring with Modbus, DNP3 or IEC 104 devices
  • Smart building and smart city controllers needing Ethernet, serial and Wi-Fi
  • Edge data logging deployments that send only processed data to the cloud
