RipEX2, 2nd generation, was introduced in 2018. This more powerful radio and cellular modem in one provides significant improvements, especially in terms of data speed, security and number of interfaces. RipEX2e, the essential version, is suitable for less demanding installations.
RipEX2 has an expansion board which radically extends its usage; GPS for location or precision timing and cellular network connectivity as examples. Huge amounts of data can be transferred over the cellular network with the licensed narrowband used for critical data in case of cellular network outage. The expansions would even enable connectivity to 5G networks and IoT applications, collecting and transmitting data from IoT-sensors in remote locations.
