Details
The ICR-4401 is a High-Speed Wired Router & Powerful Edge Computing Gateway. This router
is an ideal solution for critical industrial systems and IIoT. It serves well also for connection
of traffic and security camera systems, individual computers, LAN networks and various
self-service terminals.
The new router platform ìv4î provides intelligence at the network edge with an extremely powerful
Cortex A72 CPU at 1200 MHz, 4 GB eMMC memory, 4 MB flash memory, and 1024 MB RAM.
The focus on high security underlines using TPM 2.0, and the Tamper Button that ensures safe
use in industrial systems. The ICR-4401 is powered by the ICR-OS Linux operating system that
provides a wide range of enhanced networking features. A secure Web interface allows users
to configure and manage routers from remote locations.
The router supports multiple configuration profiles, automatic firmware updates, etc. The router
can be used as a powerful edge computing gateway because of the support of many ways of
software customization. Users may insert Linux scripts and add new features by additional
applications called Router Apps (User Modules).
There is an existing free library of Router Apps or the user may create own app using
Advantech SDK. The gateway can easily run applications like Node-RED or Docker that
open the way to a multi-container world.
The ICR-4401 is designed and manufactured for use in tough environmental conditions.
Specifications include a wide operating temperature ranges from -40 to +75 ∞C. It
accepts input voltage range from 9 V DC to 48 V DC and is equipped with sleep mode
for reducing electrical consumption.
As a standard, ICR-4401 is equipped with five Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mbps (1◊
independent and 4◊ switch), SFP cage (independent port), one USB host 2.0, microSD
reader, serial lines RS232 and RS485, CAN Bus, two binary inputs, and two binary
outputs. ICR-4401 has two mPCIe connectors that can be used for two WiFi modules.
The router is supplied in a robust metal casing for a wall mount (DIN mount is optional).
To streamline management and deployment of the ICR-4401 router family can be easily
managed using a comprehensive cloud-based tool WebAccess/DMP. This software
tool enables centralized management, provisioning, and monitoring of multiple routers,
simplifying the process of scaling and maintaining a network infrastructure or centralize
management of VPN connections.
