IR8140H-K9 Overview
The Cisco Catalyst IR8140H-K9 is a rugged, modular 5G router designed for harsh outdoor environments. With its IP67-rated enclosure, extended temperature range, and flexible radio options, it enables secure connectivity for remote assets across utilities, transportation, cities, mining and other industrial sectors.
The Cisco IR8140H-K9 uses a fully modular architecture so components like the supervisor module, radio modules, power supply and batteries can be swapped out as needed for long chassis life. It runs on Cisco IOS XE software to provide enterprise-class routing, SD-WAN capabilities and multilayer security features.
With dual active radios, the IR8140H-K9 can use multiple 5G, LTE or Wi-SUN links concurrently for redundancy and increased throughput. Location tracking, edge compute options, backup power and network management software provide complete solution capabilities tailored to industrial IoT needs.
