Key Features

Why the H820t-W?

Designed for demanding M2M and IoT deployments where reliability, range, and connectivity redundancy are non-negotiable.

Dual Cellular MIMO

Two SMA Female cellular antenna ports enable true MIMO antenna diversity for stronger signal, better throughput and improved reliability in fringe coverage areas. Both supplied antennas are SMA Male.

4 LAN + WAN Failover

Four 10/100 LAN ports connect multiple devices simultaneously. The dedicated WAN port adds broadband failover capability - the router automatically switches between fixed and 4G connectivity.

Enterprise-Grade Security

IPSec and PPTP VPN, WPA2 WiFi security, stateful packet inspection (SPI) firewall, NAT, and RADIUS client support. DMZ, BGP and OSPF dynamic routing all included.

Wide Voltage Input

Accepts DC 7V to 30V via the included terminal block connector, making it compatible with 12V and 24V DC systems - perfect for vehicles, solar/wind installations and industrial control cabinets.

SMS & Voice Control

Remotely monitor and control the router via SMS or voice call. Check status, trigger a reboot, or receive alarm notifications - no internet connection required for out-of-band management.

All-Network Compatible

Supports LTE bands 800/900/1800/2100/2600 MHz covering all major UK 4G networks (EE, Vodafone, O2, Three) with fallback to 3G DC-HSPA+ (42Mbps) and EDGE/GPRS for guaranteed connectivity.

Full Specification Sheet

Antenna Ports

Four SMA Female Antenna Ports

All antenna connectors on the H820t-W are SMA Female type. Antennas supplied with the router (and all third-party upgrade antennas) are SMA Male.

H820t-W with supplied mag-mount antennas - all SMA Male connectors fitting the SMA Female ports on the router

CELL 1 - Primary Cellular

SMA Female. Main 4G/3G cellular antenna port. Connect the primary mag-mount or stick antenna here. Covers LTE 800/900/1800/2100/2600 MHz and WCDMA 900/2100 MHz.

CELL 2 - MIMO Diversity

SMA Female. Secondary cellular antenna for MIMO diversity. Essential for maximum throughput and signal quality. Always connect both cellular antennas for full MIMO performance.

WIFI 1 & WIFI 2 - Wireless LAN

Two SMA Female WiFi antenna ports for 802.11b/g/n 2.4GHz operation. Two WiFi antennas are supplied with the router (both SMA Male). If WiFi is not required, these ports can be left unconnected or WiFi disabled in the web interface.

Important - SMA connector orientation: All four antenna ports on the H820t-W are SMA Female (hole centre pin). All supplied antennas and compatible upgrade antennas are SMA Male (pin centre conductor). Never attempt to connect RP-SMA antennas - RP-SMA has the reversed pin arrangement and will not function correctly.

Use Cases

Built for Real-World M2M Deployments

The H820t-W is trusted across a wide range of industries where always-on connectivity, environmental resilience and remote management are essential.

4G CCTV & Video Surveillance

Connect IP cameras at locations without fixed broadband. The H820t-W handles multiple camera streams via its 4 LAN ports with VPN backhaul to a central monitoring station.

Energy Monitoring

Ideal for solar farm, wind turbine and substation telemetry. The wide DC input (7-30V) works directly from 12V or 24V system power, and the extreme temperature range handles outdoor enclosures.

Remote & Site Offices

Deliver broadband-quality internet and VoIP to temporary site offices, construction sites and pop-up locations. The WAN failover port ensures continuity if a fixed line is also present.

Digital Signage & Media

Keep digital display networks online with reliable 4G backhaul. Remote reboot via SMS means display failures can be resolved without a site visit.

Building Management Systems

Connect BMS controllers, HVAC systems, access control, and smart metering over 4G. The IPSec VPN capability provides secure comms back to head office infrastructure.

WAN Failover & Backup

Deploy as a seamless 4G failover alongside an existing broadband connection. When fixed-line drops, the H820t-W automatically takes over - transparent to end users and connected devices.

Also Available

Proroute H685t-W

The compact sibling to the H820. The H685t-W offers the same CAT4 4G connectivity in a smaller form factor - ideal when you only need a single RJ45 LAN port and a more compact enclosure footprint.

Quick Start

Up and Running in Minutes

The H820t-W ships ready to connect. Follow these steps for a first-time setup.

Insert SIM Card

Remove any PIN lock before inserting. Standard SIM (1.8V/3V). Most UK data SIMs auto-configure the APN - no manual entry needed.

Attach Antennas

Connect both cellular antennas (SMA Male) to CELL 1 and CELL 2 (SMA Female). Connect both WiFi antennas to the WIFI ports. For mag-mount antennas, place on a metal ground plane of at least 30x30cm.

Power On

Connect DC power (7-30V via terminal block or supplied mains adapter). Wait 60-90 seconds for full boot. SYS LED will flash green and CELL LED will illuminate orange.

Log in to Web Interface

Connect a PC to a LAN port via Ethernet. Open a browser and navigate to https://192.168.8.1. Username: admin - password is unique and printed on the underside label.

Update Firmware & Configure

The H820t-W has multiple hardware revisions - confirm your revision before downloading firmware. Then check Network > Mobile to verify APN and confirm 4G connectivity.
