Overview

The InHand Networks VG710 (IVG710-FS39) is an IP64-rated 4G LTE vehicle gateway for commercial fleets, transit and field vehicles. This North America configuration pairs LTE Cat 6 with 512 MB of RAM. It combines four Gigabit Ethernet ports, dual-band Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 4.1, multi-constellation GNSS with inertial dead reckoning and CAN bus vehicle diagnostics. A programmable edge platform supports Python, C/C++ and Docker, so one die-cast aluminum unit can handle connectivity, tracking and telematics.

  • LTE Cat 6 cellular modem in the North America configuration, with dual 2FF SIM slots
  • 4 × 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 Ethernet plus dual-band Wi-Fi 5 (AP/Client) and Bluetooth 4.1
  • CAN bus with OBD-II and J1939 support, RS-232, RS-485, 1-WIRE and 6 DI / 4 DO / 6 AI
  • GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Beidou) with accelerometer and gyroscope dead reckoning, 2.5 m CEP
  • Edge computing with Python, C/C++, Docker and Node-RED on an ARM Cortex A7 with 8 GB eMMC
  • IP64 die-cast aluminum housing, -30 °C to +70 °C operation, 9–36 V DC input with ignition sense
  • Put vehicle connectivity, GPS tracking and CAN diagnostics into one box, which reduces onboard hardware and wiring
  • Connect cameras, MDTs and displays over four Gigabit Ethernet ports and share Wi-Fi 5 with crews and devices

The InHand Networks VG710 is an industrial-grade 4G vehicle gateway for logistics, transport, heavy equipment and public safety fleets. The IVG710-FS39 is the North America configuration with an LTE Cat 6 modem and 512 MB of DDR3 RAM. InHand's spec sheet lists FCC, IC, PTCRB and E-Mark certification, along with Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile certifications for the VG710 family. The die-cast aluminum, IP64-rated housing operates from -30 °C to +70 °C on a 9–36 V DC supply (configurable to 7–36 V DC), with transient protection and ignition-sense power control.

In the vehicle, four 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports connect cameras, displays and onboard computers. Dual-band Wi-Fi 5 runs in AP or client mode, and Bluetooth 4.1 links nearby sensors. For telematics, the VG710 supports CAN bus, OBD-II and J1939 diagnostics, plus RS-232, RS-485, 1-WIRE for driver ID or temperature, and 6 DI, 4 DO and 6 AI. Dual 2FF SIM slots support carrier redundancy. The GNSS receiver tracks GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and Beidou at up to 30 Hz with 2.5 m CEP accuracy. An onboard accelerometer and gyroscope provide dead reckoning in tunnels and urban canyons.

The gateway also runs local applications. An ARM Cortex A7 processor, 8 GB of eMMC and microSD support up to 32 GB host Python, C/C++ and Docker workloads, including Node-RED and Ubuntu images. SDKs cover Python 3, Docker and Azure IoT Edge, and the gateway supports MQTT, AMQP, REST and CoAP for cloud integration. Networking features include IPsec, OpenVPN, L2TP and GRE VPNs, OSPF and BGP routing, VRRP and an SPI firewall. InHand SmartFleet adds route planning, tracking and geofencing. InHand publishes a datasheet and quick start guide for the VG710.

Ideal for

  • Commercial truck and logistics fleets that need LTE connectivity, GPS tracking and J1939/OBD-II diagnostics
  • Transit buses and shuttles that provide onboard Wi-Fi and connect cameras and passenger displays
  • Public safety and utility service vehicles that need a rugged mobile router with VPN back to headquarters
  • Heavy equipment telematics for predictive maintenance using CAN data and edge analytics
  • Custom in-vehicle applications built on Docker, Python or Node-RED

Questions buyers ask

What region and memory configuration is the IVG710-FS39?

InHand lists the FS39 configuration as North America with 512 MB of DDR3 RAM and an LTE Cat 6 modem. InHand's FAQ describes the VG710-FS39 as AT&T-certified for North America.

How does the VG710 power on in a vehicle?

The VG710 requires an ignition (IGT) signal. Wire the IGT pin on the 4-pin power connector (V+, V-, IGT, NC) to the vehicle's ignition-controlled circuit and supply 9–36 V DC. Ignition delay and delayed power-off are set in the web interface under Administration > System.

Do I need to set the APN manually?

Usually not. Insert the SIM with the unit powered off, then apply ignition. The VG710 auto-detects the carrier and applies the matching APN in most cases. If the cellular link does not come up, log in to http://192.168.2.1 and configure it under Network > Cellular.

Can it read vehicle diagnostic data?

Yes. The VG710 supports CAN bus with OBD-II and J1939 for real-time diagnostics, alongside RS-232, RS-485, 1-WIRE for driver ID or temperature, and 6 DI, 4 DO and 6 AI.

Is this the 5G version?

No. The IVG710-FS39 is the 4G LTE Cat 6 model. InHand's 5G model is the VG710-H, which uses the same RJ45 Ethernet and SMA antenna interface.
