5G & WiFi 6 for Next-Gen Connectivity

The Vigor2927L-5G series routers offer most of the features of the Vigor2927 series, with the addition of an integrated 5G/4G LTE mobile broadband Nano SIM module, supporting speeds up to 10 times faster than 4G. This enhanced LTE capability makes the Vigor2927L-5G series routers ideal for applications such as:

  1. Remote location with no fixed line or NBN/UFB coverage
  2. Quick setup for new branches waiting for xDSL/Ethernet WAN (e.g. NBN deployment)
  3. Load Balancing or Failover backup for an existing primary internet connection such as Cable/NBN/ UFB Ethernet broadband
  4. Temporary installations such as disaster recovery, emergency, exhibitions and sporting events where internet access is required for a short period
  5. Providing internet access on public transport such as coaches, buses, trains and freighters
The Vigor2927L-5G series includes one Gigabit Ethernet WAN port, one Gigabit Ethernet WAN/LAN configurable port, five Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports, and a dual Nano SIM card slot for 5G/4G LTE broadband connectivity, allowing for a second Nano SIM to be installed for failover. The WAN ports support NBN technologies including FTTP, HFC, Satellite and Fixed Wireless. All WAN interfaces, including the 3G/4G USB WAN interfaces, can be configured to Load Balance mode or Failover mode.

5G Router with High Speed Mobile Connectivity lte_backward_to_4g
* Backward compatible to 4G LTE
  • The integrated 5G/LTE modem with Category 19 supports carrier aggregation, providing high-speed mobile broadband connectivity for Internet access and VPN.
  • The dual SIM slot accepts two SIM cards from different mobile network providers. This ensures that the router can seamlessly switch to the secondary SIM and cellular network if the primary mobile connectivity is broken.
  • The four LTE antennas with 1-metre extension cables make it easy to place the router at locations that ensure the best possible signal coverage.

Multi-WAN 5G Gigabit Security Router with Load Balance

WAN Load Balancing

The Vigor2927L-5G Series supports high throughput from Gigabit Internet connectivity via Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) and 5G LTE mobile connections. All active WANs automatically join the WAN Load Balance pool to optimize bandwidth utilisation

Seamless Failover

If an Internet connection is lost, the router automatically switches to surviving WAN connections, seamlessly transferring traffic. This ensures reliable Internet connectivity and avoids the costs associated with network downtime

Policy-Based Routing

Routing policies can be used to designate specific WAN interfaces for traffic from or to certain IP ranges and for applications such as VoIP thus enhancing network efficiency and performance. wan_loadbalance_lte
Ideal VPN Router for SMB

Data Quota Management

Bandwidth management is integrated into the Hotspot features to control the bandwidth and session usage of the Hotspot guests.


Comprehensive Firewall

Object-based Firewall

IPs and services can be grouped into objects before being applied to firewall rules. This feature simplifies the organisation of network activities.


Blocking Apps & DoH servers

APP Enforcement (APPE) allows the blocking of applications (IM, P2P, streaming, tunnelling, etc.) on a LAN network quickly and easily. For example, by blocking DoH servers in browsers, LAN clients can only use standard DNS queries and filtering.


Manage Traffic Beyond LAN to WAN

DrayTek Firewall manages not only traffic between LAN and WAN, but also those between LAN subnets, remote VPN subnets, and from WAN to the Vigor router itself. Internet IPs can be predefined for accessing the Vigor routers’ services, enhancing security and control.


Web Content Filtering with DNS Filter

The Web Content Filtering Service uses cloud-based technology to provide comprehensive and up-to-date protection for LAN clients for online activities, with 82 categories in total, 10 of which are security-focused.

DrayTek

Edge Router for SD-WAN

Edge Router for SD-WAN

Latency, loss, and jitter measure the quality of every WAN/VPN interface. Based on these metrics, the Vigor2927L-5G can dynamically self-adjust to the best-quality interface for VoIP and business-critical applications.

DrayTek

Application Visibility and SD-WAN Policy

Application Visibility enables the network administrator to monitor data usage sorted by client, WAN interface, application, and time.

With data usage details, SD-WAN policies can be created to route business-critical applications through the best-quality interfaces to improve the user experience.


DrayTek
App QoSApplication QoS allows prioritisation of applications and services on DrayTek routers to improve and enhance critical applications such as VoIP, conferencing and video streaming, etc. It also allow flexible bandwidth allocation to suit business requirements.

VoIP First

VoIP is always a top priority! The default VoIP port, UDP 5060 (configurable) has priority out-of-box with QoS.

Improve Experience for Business-Critical Apps

Select your business critical apps, and easily put them into QoS classes.

Flexible Bandwidth Allocation

Bandwidth will be reserved for high-priority classes, and can be used by low-priority classes when available.DrayTek
