Teltonika RUTC50
Teltonika RUTC50 is a state-of-the-art industrial router that raises the standards in communications with support for
5G and
Wi-Fi 6 technologies. Specifically developed for harsh environments,
the RUTC50 offers reliable connectivity and stability in a variety of applications such as transportation, industrial, remote workstations and monitoring.
Key Features of Teltonika RUTC50
- 5G Support: With the latest 5G technology, the Teltonika RUTC50 offers ultra-fast data speeds and minimal latency. This is ideal for applications where fast response is crucial, such as real-time video surveillance and remote management of infrastructure and IoT devices. With 5G, the device can easily support demanding applications, even in data-heavy areas.
- Wi-Fi 6 with MIMO 3x3 Technology: the Teltonika RUTC50 supports the modern Wi-Fi 6 standard, which guarantees a stable connection while connecting multiple devices simultaneously. With MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) 3x3, the router can effectively manage data transmission over longer distances and in busier networks, which is ideal in industries where multiple devices are operating simultaneously.
- Advanced Security Features: The Teltonika RUTC50 provides high security standards with support for IPsec and OpenVPN protocols and a built-in firewall. In an industrial environment, data protection is key, so the RUTC50 guarantees a secure connection for IoT applications and high-risk industrial networks.
- Ease of Management and Monitoring: Equipped with the proprietary RutOS operating system, the Teltonika RUTC50 enables remote monitoring and management via the Teltonika RMS platform. This feature is crucial for industrial operators, allowing full control and monitoring of the network from anywhere, increasing productivity and facilitating quick responses to potential problems.
The RUTC50 sets itself apart from other devices, such as
the RUTX50, thanks to its advanced 5G and Wi-Fi 6 support, which allows for stable and fast connectivity even in highly loaded networks. This makes it ideal for environments with a large number of users and heavy network traffic, offering a reliable solution for critical industrial applications.
Unpacking and Testing the Teltonik RUTC50
When unpacking the Teltonik RUTC50, we were surprised by the robustness and number of accessories included in the package. Included were: 1 x box with the RUTC50 device itself, 1 x GPS antenna, 1 x RJ45 patchcord, 4 x LTE/5G antennas, 3 x Wi-Fi antennas, SIM card replacement tool and SIM card adapters, 1 x power adapter.
Such a rich set of accessories demonstrates the versatility of the RUTC50 and its readiness for a variety of industrial applications.

Teltonika RUTC50: Unpacking, Features and Tests
The unpacking of
the Teltonik RUTC50 is surprising: each part -
LTE/5G antennas, SIM card adapters and other accessories - is packaged separately. While this may add to the cost, it reflects the kit's professionalism and attention to detail.
Key Features and Specifications Teltonika RUTC50
- 5G connectivity: Transfer speeds of up to 3.4 Gbps.
- LTE Cat20: Aggregation of up to 4 carriers allows up to 2,000 Mbps download and 315 Mbps upload.
- Wi-Fi 6 (802.11b/g/n/ac/ax): Speeds up to 3 Gbps with a combination of 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz bands.
- Multi-WAN: Connectivity via RJ45, LTE/5G with auto-failover features and additional switching scenarios.
- Advanced configuration options: VPN, GPS, hotspot, routing and more.
After mounting the antennas and inserting SIM cards from operators Play and Orange, we began testing. Unlike older models,
the Teltonika RUTC50 does not have a standard password - each device has an individual password, engraved on the bottom, which improves security. After logging in, we gained access to the device's advanced capabilities:

We will conduct mobile data speed tests and see how
LTE Cat20 with
band aggregation and
5G work.

As we can see, the speeds are indeed high(up to 635 Mbps), but do not reach the levels declared by the manufacturer. This could be due to several factors: the router is located in an area with suboptimal 5G coverage, and it also operates in 5G NSA mode (we'll outline the differences between 5G NSA and 5G SA below), which also prevents us from getting the full picture during testing.
All of Teltonika's capabilities with the
RUTC50 open up a wide range of application perspectives - from a main router in small and medium-sized businesses to a wireless access point in international transportation and custom solutions limited only by the imagination. Thanks to the universal antenna
Teltonika 5G/GNSS/WiFi Combo RUTC50 can be used in all kinds of vehicles and develop hundreds of creative applications, for example, even in places such as
bunkers.
Summary
Teltonika 's
RUTC50 router is a state-of-the-art network solution that combines the latest technologies with exceptional reliability, making it ideal for industrial and IoT applications. With support for
5G,
Wi-Fi 6 and advanced
security features, the RUTC50 is suitable for building modern networks with high-speed transfer and remote management.
There are virtually no comparable devices on the market at this price. Designed by experienced engineers, it is easy to configure for any user.
Our rating - a solid 10/10.
