Designed for the 50-500 user environment where multi-gigabit fixed lines, Starlink, and 5G all need to be bonded into a single resilient pipe. Rack or desk mount; -40 to +65°C operating range so it goes in unconditioned cabinets without complaint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe defining feature is the embedded 5G modem with CAT-20 LTE fallback. 3.4 Gbps downlink on 5G, 1.6 Gbps on CAT-20 LTE. Combined with SpeedFusion, this is a router that doesn't drop. Two SIM slots take primary and secondary networks, BYO eSIM is supported, and InControl 2 cloud management drives the whole estate from one dashboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRouter throughput\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5 Gbps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpeedFusion VPN throughput\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e600 Mbps unencrypted, 500 Mbps with 256-bit AES\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecommended users\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50-500\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWired WAN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 x Gigabit Ethernet, 2 x USB 2.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWired LAN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9 x Gigabit Ethernet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCellular\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 x embedded 5G modem with redundant SIM slots\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5G data rate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5G NR: 3.4 Gbps DL \/ 900 Mbps UL; LTE CAT-20: 1.6 Gbps DL \/ 200 Mbps UL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSIM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 x physical SIM, BYO eSIM, FusionSIM, RemoteSIM via SIM Injector\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAntenna connectors\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4 x SMA cellular, 1 x SMA GPS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower input\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12-30V DC; AC adapter included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 W max\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43 x 292 x 177 mm (rack\/desk), 3.3 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-40 to +65°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHumidity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15-95% non-condensing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCertifications\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFCC, CE, RoHS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-year limited (PrimeCare extends to 4 years)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 310X 5G is the right call for sites where downtime cost is measured per minute: regional offices, broadcast facilities, financial trading floors, healthcare clinics with cloud PACS, retail headquarters with cloud-only ERP. Also the right answer for fixed-site sites with rural fibre that drops occasionally and needs 5G as a working backup, not a token gesture. The 50-500 user envelope and 2.5 Gbps router throughput give plenty of headroom for the next 3-5 years even as multi-gig fibre rolls out further.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor sites under 150 users, the B One 5G or B One Plus is a more proportional fit.

We price these directly through our Peplink Gold Partner channel for accurate trade pricing, lead times, and any bundled engineering. Same-day quotes via the contact page or +44 (0)1788 550000.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it actually do 2.5 Gbps router throughput?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, on TCP traffic with hardware acceleration enabled. Real-world deployments routinely measure 2.0-2.4 Gbps end-to-end. Note that this is router throughput, not cellular link rate; 5G CAT-20 modem can deliver up to 3.4 Gbps but you'd need a 2.5G or 10G LAN to consume that fully.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it work with Starlink?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. Plug Starlink into one of the Ethernet WAN ports. With SpeedFusion you can bond Starlink, fibre, and 5G into a single resilient path with hot failover. We've deployed this exact stack across maritime, broadcast, and remote operational sites.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's PrimeCare?\u003c\/strong\u003e A 1-year PrimeCare subscription is bundled. It unlocks SpeedFusion peers (default 2, up to 20), warranty extension, InControl 2 cloud management, and firmware support. Renewals available as 1, 2, or 4-year extensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it support 5G mid-band C-band?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The 310X 5G covers the 3.3-4.2 GHz C-band tier where most UK and EU 5G mid-band sits, in addition to low-band and high-band coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the 50-500 user count work?\u003c\/strong\u003e That's the recommended concurrent user envelope across all WAN paths and all interfaces. Real performance depends on traffic mix; light cloud productivity and email scales further, heavy video conferencing closer to the lower end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePeplink Gold Partner support\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Tech Factory supplies the Balance 310X 5G as a Peplink Gold Partner. \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/request-a-quote?request=quote\u0026amp;product=peplink-balance-310x-5g\"\u003eTalk to our engineering team\u003c\/a\u003e for a quote, deployment plan, or sizing on a multi-site rollout.
