High-Speed 5G & LTE Connectivity
The Digi EX50 supports 5G NR alongside LTE-Advanced Pro Cat 20, ensuring fast data speeds and low latency for modern applications. Dual SIM slots combined with Digi’s SureLink® technology automatically switch carriers when connectivity degrades.
If 5G coverage becomes unstable, the device seamlessly falls back to 4G or even 3G without interrupting active sessions a critical feature for business continuity.
Wi-Fi 6 Performance with Dual 2.5 GbE
Wi-Fi 6 radios operate simultaneously to deliver higher throughput, better device density, and improved efficiency in busy networks.
The dual 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ports remove traditional gigabit limitations, making the EX50 ideal for:
4K/8K video streaming
Cloud-based workloads
AR/VR applications
SD-WAN deployments
High-speed WAN failover
Enterprise Security & Rugged Design
Running on Digi Accelerated Linux (DAL OS), the EX50 is protected by the Digi TrustFence® security framework. This includes secure boot, firewall protection, VPN support, and FIPS 140-2 validated encryption meeting government and enterprise compliance standards.
Its rugged design supports extended temperature operation, making it suitable for warehouses, smart factories, construction environments, and industrial cabinets.
Flexible Power & Centralised Management
The EX50 supports PoE+ and DC input, allowing flexible power setups and redundancy. Multiple mounting options simplify installation across varied environments.
Using Digi Remote Manager® (Digi RM), included with the Digi 360 solution, IT teams can:
Deploy and configure devices remotely
Monitor performance and connectivity
Push firmware and security updates
Manage large-scale deployments from one dashboard
No on-site IT required.
