Maximum Connectivity: Your Outdoor 5G Anchor Point
The Teltonika OTD500 is more than just a router – it's your guarantee for stable internet, even under the most demanding conditions. Designed as a weatherproof 5G Dual SIM Router, it provides a reliable connection where wired internet is not an option. Its true strength lies in its redundancy: two physical SIM slots and an integrated eSIM with space for up to seven profiles can be controlled via intelligent rules. If a Network fails, the data limit is reached, or the signal is too weak, the OTD500 automatically and seamlessly switches to the best available alternative. This ensures your connection for critical applications, such as monitoring via IP Cameras or operating POS systems, remains online at all times.
Power Supply Made Easy: PoE-In and PoE-Out for Flexible Installations
Forget complicated Cabling and separate power connections outdoors. The Teltonika OTD500 is elegantly powered with electricity and data via a single Ethernet Cable (PoE-In 802.3af/at). This not only reduces installation effort but also potential sources of error. But that's not all: The second Ethernet port is a PoE-Out port (802.3af) that provides up to 15 watts of power. This allows you to power another device, such as an external WiFi Access Point or a surveillance camera, directly via the router. You only need a suitable PoE Injectors / Power Supplies to power the system.
Built for Any Weather: Robust IP55 Industrial Router
The OTD500 was designed for continuous outdoor use. Its housing with IP55 protection is protected against the ingress of dust and against jet water from any angle. Whether rain, snow, or intense sunlight – this router withstands it all. The extreme operating temperature range of -40 °C to +55 °C ensures reliable operation throughout the year. This makes it the first choice for industrial applications, agriculture, event management, or connecting holiday homes and remote buildings.
Professional Control with RutOS and Remote Maintenance
Under the robust hood, RutOS, an OpenWrt-based operating system, provides you with a wealth of professional Network and security functions. Configure complex firewall rules, set up secure VPN tunnels with protocols such as WireGuard or OpenVPN, and use advanced routing. For companies with multiple locations, compatibility with the Teltonika Remote Management System (RMS) is a decisive advantage. This allows you to centrally monitor, configure, and maintain an entire fleet of routers remotely – an enormous plus in efficiency and security for any professional 4G / 5G Router.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can the Teltonika OTD500 use two 5G connections simultaneously?
No, the OTD500 has one 5G modem and can only use one active cellular connection at any given time. The dual-SIM functionality is exclusively for redundancy and automatic failover, not for bandwidth aggregation.
Do I need a separate Power Supply for the OTD500?
Yes, you need a power source that complies with the PoE standard 802.3af or 802.3at to operate the router. This can be a PoE Switch or a separate PoE Injector that provides a voltage between 42.5 and 57 VDC.
Is the OTD500 suitable for use in a moving vehicle?
The OTD500 is primarily designed as a stationary outdoor router. For mobile applications in vehicles, Teltonika offers specialized routers from the 'RUT' series, which often have additional features such as vibration resistance and GNSS (GPS).
Does the router support WLAN (Wi-Fi)?
No, the Teltonika OTD500 does not have a built-in WLAN module. To create a Wi-Fi network, you must connect an external WiFi Access Point to one of the two Gigabit Ethernet ports. A compatible Access Point can even be directly powered via the PoE-Out port.
How is the OTD500 configured and managed?
Configuration is done via a web interface (WebUI), which is accessed through a browser. Additionally, the router is fully compatible with the Teltonika Remote Management System (RMS), a cloud platform for centralized remote maintenance.
What exactly does protection class IP55 mean?
IP55 means protection against dust in harmful quantities (first digit '5') and protection against jet water from any angle (second digit '5'). It can withstand rain but is not suitable for submersion in water.
