Teltonika RUT200 4G LTE Industrial Cellular Router
The Teltonika RUT200 is a compact industrial 4G LTE cellular router designed to provide reliable internet connectivity for automation, transportation, manufacturing, remote monitoring, and other professional networking applications. It combines 4G LTE Cat 4, Wi-Fi 4, two Ethernet ports, industrial I/O, and remote management capabilities in a compact DIN-rail-mountable enclosure.
The RUT200 can be used as a primary cellular gateway or as a backup connectivity solution. Teltonika also provides WAN failover functionality, allowing the router to automatically switch to an available backup connection when the primary connection becomes unavailable.
4G LTE Cat 4 Connectivity
The RUT200 supports 4G LTE Cat 4 connectivity with theoretical cellular speeds of up to 150 Mbps download and 50 Mbps upload. It also supports 3G and 2G connectivity, allowing the router to maintain cellular access where supported by the network operator.
The router provides cellular monitoring information such as signal strength, SINR, RSRP, RSRQ, connected band, IMSI, ICCID, and transmitted or received data, helping administrators diagnose and manage cellular connectivity.
Dual Ethernet Connectivity
The RUT200 includes two 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports. One port is designed as WAN and the other as LAN, while the WAN port can also be configured for LAN operation depending on the network design. Both interfaces support auto MDI/MDIX.
This configuration allows the router to connect a wired network, industrial controller, computer, surveillance device, or other Ethernet equipment to a cellular WAN connection.
Wi-Fi 4 Wireless Connectivity
The RUT200 provides IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi and can operate as a wireless access point or station. Teltonika specifies support for up to 50 simultaneous Wi-Fi connections, making the router suitable for local wireless connectivity in industrial and remote environments.
Wireless functions include SSID management, MAC-based access control, client separation, WPA/WPA2 security options, hotspot functionality, and other wireless management features.
Industrial Design
The RUT200 uses an aluminium housing with plastic panels and provides DIN-rail mounting options. Its operating temperature range extends from -40°C to 75°C, making it suitable for demanding environments where standard consumer routers may not be appropriate. The device has an IP30 enclosure rating.

Hardware and modem specifications can vary by RUT200 order code and hardware revision. Teltonika has announced a modem transition for standard RUT200 order codes, while the physical design remains unchanged. Therefore, the exact order code should be checked when cellular band or modem compatibility is critical.
WAN Failover and Backup Connectivity
The RUT200 supports automatic WAN failover, allowing available connectivity sources to be used as backup connections. Mobile, wired Ethernet, and Wi-Fi WAN options can participate in network backup configurations depending on the firmware and network setup.
This makes the router useful for businesses and industrial installations where maintaining network availability is important. A cellular connection can serve as a backup when a wired internet connection becomes unavailable.
Routing and Network Management
RUT200 provides static and dynamic routing functionality, DHCP, NAT, VLAN support, policy-based traffic management, DDNS, IPv4/IPv6 networking, and multiple network protocols. It also supports connection monitoring features such as Ping Reboot and periodic reboot functions.
Traffic management and QoS features can be used to prioritize network traffic according to source, destination, service, protocol, or port.
Security Features
The router provides firewall functionality with configurable traffic rules, port forwarding, NAT, NAT-T, DMZ, access controls, and attack-prevention mechanisms. Teltonika also documents protection against several common network attacks, including SYN flood, SSH, HTTP/HTTPS, and port-scan attacks.
VLAN separation, MAC filtering, web filtering, authentication options, and certificate-based security provide additional tools for controlling network access.
VPN and Remote Management
The RUT200 is designed for remote networking applications and supports Teltonika's Remote Management System (RMS). RMS can be used for remote device management, access, configuration, and VPN-related services.
This is particularly useful when routers are installed at remote locations where physical access for troubleshooting or configuration is difficult.
Industrial I/O
The RUT200 includes one digital input and one digital output. The digital input can detect specified voltage states, while the digital output uses an open-collector interface. These interfaces can be integrated into suitable industrial monitoring or automation applications.
SMS and Cellular Management
The RUT200 supports SMS functionality, including sending and receiving SMS messages, scheduled SMS, SMS autoreply, and SMS-related integration options. Cellular management features also include APN configuration, band management, operator lists, SIM PIN management, and cellular signal monitoring.
Power Options
The router accepts a 9–30 VDC power input and includes reverse-polarity and surge protection. Certain RUT200 hardware revisions also support passive PoE over spare Ethernet pairs. Teltonika specifies that this passive PoE implementation is not compatible with IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, or 802.3bt active PoE standards.

Installation and Compatibility Considerations
The RUT200 uses a Mini SIM (2FF) and external SMA cellular antenna connections. A separate RP-SMA connection is provided for Wi-Fi. Before deployment, verify that the SIM plan and supported cellular bands are compatible with the intended mobile network.
For industrial installations, use an appropriate 9–30 VDC power source and install the router where its specified temperature, humidity, and enclosure requirements can be maintained. DIN-rail mounting can simplify installation inside industrial control cabinets and network enclosures.
For cellular-critical applications, verify the exact RUT200 order code because Teltonika has introduced hardware modem changes that affect certain 3G bands while retaining the same physical design.
