Overview
Overview
The Peplink EPX is a rapidly deployable, powerful, and versatile SD-WAN router that connects a wide range of WAN options — from LTE-A and satellite modems to fixed line networks. In a 19″ 2U rack-mountable form factor, it can combine up to 18x LTE-A connections for absolute connection reliability, supporting 36 SIM cards across cellular expansion modules.
This is the EPX Base Model — a barebone chassis with LCD module, supporting up to 7 expansion modules (cellular, GE Ethernet/PoE+, or 10G SFP+) so the platform can be configured for exactly the connectivity mix a deployment needs, and upgraded as new technologies like 5G or FirstNet become available. This model is quote-only — pricing depends on configuration, licensing, and deployment scale, so get in touch with a specialist for a tailored quote.
Key highlights
- EPX Barebone Chassis with LCD Module
- Supports up to 7 expansion modules
- 30 Gbps stateful firewall throughput
- Up to 18 cellular connections (36 SIM cards) in full cellular configuration
- Rack mounting kit with brackets and slide included
- Dual power inputs with two hot-swappable power supplies
- SpeedFusion VPN bonding across all connected WAN sources
- FirstNet (Band 14) ready for first responder networks
Recommended for
- Mission-critical & rapidly deployable sites — rail, maritime, and mobile command deployments needing absolute connection reliability
- High-bandwidth multi-site enterprises — 30 Gbps throughput and up to 56 WAN/LAN ports when fully populated
- Future-proof infrastructure — expansion module architecture means new technologies (5G, FirstNet) can be added without replacing the chassis
- High-availability deployments — dual hot-swappable PSUs remove power as a single point of failure
