Maximum Connectivity in the Smallest Space
The Teltonika RUT241 is the answer to the question of how to pack maximum connectivity and industrial reliability into a housing barely larger than a matchbox. This compact cellular router was specifically developed for professional M2M and IoT applications where space and stability are crucial. Despite its small size, it offers a stable 4G 4G Cat 4 connection, WiFi for local devices, and two flexible Ethernet ports. It is the perfect choice for networking remote systems, POS systems, digital signs, or surveillance cameras.
eSIM & Dual-SIM: Your Guarantee for Fail-safe Internet
Forget the hassle of swapping SIM cards in hard-to-reach locations. The RUT241 is a robust 4G Router with eSIM that opens up a new dimension of flexibility. Load up to 7 cellular profiles directly onto the router and switch providers with a click of a mouse – ideal for international deployments or to always use the best tariff. In combination with the external SIM card holder, you can use a second, physical SIM card as a backup. The automatic failover function ensures that the router immediately switches to the alternative SIM in case of a Network outage, maintaining your connection without interruption.
Built for Extremes: Robustness for Industry and IoT
Where consumer routers have long given up, the RUT241 truly begins. Its durable aluminum housing with IP30 protection class, reverse polarity and overvoltage protection, and the impressive operating temperature range of -40 °C to +75 °C make it the ideal partner for demanding environments. Whether in the production hall, in unheated outdoor areas, or in a vehicle – this router is certified for continuous operation under the harshest conditions (e.g., E-Mark for vehicles) and guarantees consistently high performance. Matching M2M / IoT Antennas - 4G, 5G, WiFi can also be found in our shop.
RutOS: The Power of OpenWrt for Your Network
The heart of the RUT241 is RutOS, an OpenWrt-based operating system that gives you full control over your Network. Set up secure VPN connections with OpenVPN, IPsec, GRE, PPTP, or L2TP to ensure secure remote access. Define precise firewall rules, use VLAN tagging, and benefit from seamless integration into the Teltonika Remote Management System (RMS). With RMS, you can remotely monitor, configure, and supply an entire fleet of routers with the latest firmware updates – an invaluable advantage for any administrator looking for an Industrial 4G Router for Remote Access.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can the Teltonika RUT241 be used as a regular WiFi Router for home?
Although technically possible, the RUT241 is designed for industrial purposes. Its strengths lie in robustness and advanced Network functions, not in maximum WiFi speed or range for home use. For pure home applications, there are more cost-effective and powerful alternatives.
What is the main advantage of the eSIM function in the RUT241?
The eSIM function allows remote switching of mobile provider profiles without having to replace the physical SIM card. This is ideal for devices in hard-to-reach locations or for international logistics, where the router can automatically switch to a local provider's network to avoid roaming costs.
Do I need special Antennas for the RUT241?
No, the router comes with suitable 4G and WiFi Antennas. However, for locations with very weak mobile signals, connecting an external, directional Antenna can significantly improve reception quality and thus the stability and speed of the connection.
Does the RUT241 support WAN failover?
Yes, the RUT241 offers an automatic WAN failover function. It can be configured to automatically switch to the 4G-LTE mobile connection as a backup in case of a primary internet connection failure, to ensure uninterrupted connectivity.
What is the Teltonika Remote Management System (RMS)?
RMS is a cloud platform that allows a fleet of Teltonika Routers to be centrally monitored, configured, and managed. This is particularly useful for companies with many decentralized devices, as firmware updates and configuration changes can be performed remotely.
How is the RUT241 powered?
The router has a flexible input voltage range of 9-30 VDC via a 4-pin socket. It can be operated with the included Power Supply, a vehicle battery, or via Passive Power over Ethernet (PoE) on the LAN1 port.
