Peplink MAX BR1 Pro 5G
The Peplink MAX BR1 Pro 5G is a 4G/5G router for use in homes, offices, industrial spaces, and even on the go. The BR1 Pro 5G (5GK) is Peplink's latest iteration of their incredibly popular BR1 range, now featuring the Qualcomm X65 modem and a new multi-core CPU delivering gigabit speeds, 800% faster than the original BR1 Classic.
It works as a standalone 5G WAN adapter for any existing router or firewall, or as the primary router for your entire network, with wired WAN, Wi-Fi as WAN, and 5G cellular all active simultaneously. It integrates seamlessly with Starlink for bonding, load balancing, and Hot Failover across all active connections.
Features
- Certified Nationwide 5G Connectivity: An embedded Qualcomm X65 5G/CAT-20 LTE modem delivers Sub-6 5G with automatic LTE fallback, carrier-certified on Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and U.S. Cellular, so you're ready to connect on whichever network is strongest.
- Breakthrough Routing Performance: With 1 Gbps of routing throughput, a staggering 800% faster than the original BR1 Classic, the BR1 Pro moves data as fast as your carrier can deliver, with headroom for the most demanding applications.
- Flexible, High-Speed Networking: A 2.5 GbE WAN port and built-in Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) 2x2 MU-MIMO dual-band keep every connected device running at full speed, wired or wireless.
- Unbreakable, Always-On Connections: Combine multiple WAN paths, including embedded 5G/LTE, wired, Wi-Fi as WAN, and USB, with dual SIM slots and patented SpeedFusion bonding, hot failover, and WAN Smoothing to keep traffic flowing seamlessly. FusionSIM adds remote SIM management, so carrier swaps never require a truck roll.
- Enterprise-Grade Security & Edge Computing: PepVPN site-to-site tunnels with 256-bit AES encryption protect traffic across every site, while native Docker support runs applications right at the edge.
- Built for the Fleet: Integrated GPS delivers real-time vehicle location and fleet tracking, and flexible 802.3at PoE or 12V DC power makes installation easy in vehicles, cabinets, and remote sites.
- Fully Managed, Everything Included: Monitor and configure your entire deployment from anywhere with InControl 2 cloud management, backed by a 1-year PrimeCare subscription that bundles warranty, FusionHub license, and SpeedFusion, so every feature is unlocked out of the box.
Unmatched Carrier Support
The BR1 Pro 5G is certified for use on Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular, and FirstNet. Uses a 4FF Nano SIM card.
The BR1 Pro 5G supports the following bands:
- 5G (NSA & SA) Sub-6 GHz: n1, n2, n3, n5, n7, n8, n12, n13, n14, n18, n20, n25, n26, n28, n29, n30, n38, n40, n41, n48, n66, n71, n75, n76, n77, n78, n79
- 4G LTE: B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B7, B8, B12, B13, B14, B17, B18, B19, B20, B25, B26, B28, B29, B30, B32, B34, B38, B39, B40, B41, B42, B43, B46, B48, B66, B71
Kit Contents
- 1x Peplink MAX BR1 Pro 5G
- 1x 12V 2A 4-pin power supply (ACW-632)
- 4x LTE/5G wideband antennas (ACW-235)
- 2x dual band Wi-Fi antennas (ACW-341)
- 1x GPS active antenna (ACW-232)
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use it as a 5G adapter with my existing firewall?
Yes. Connect the BR1 Pro 5G to your existing router or firewall's WAN port and configure it in IP Passthrough or Drop-in Mode. Your existing network setup stays intact and you gain a 5G WAN uplink without any reconfiguration.
Does the 2.5 GbE WAN port actually matter?
Yes, if your 5G connection can deliver gigabit-plus speeds. Mid-band 5G on T-Mobile or Verizon C-Band can exceed 1 Gbps in good coverage. The 2.5 GbE WAN port ensures the Ethernet connection to your network is not the bottleneck. On LTE or sub-1 Gbps 5G, a standard GbE port would suffice, but the 2.5 GbE is future-proof.
What Docker applications can I run on it?
Any containerized application: custom scripts, data processing pipelines, third-party IoT software, caching for offline deployments, or monitoring agents. The BR1 Pro 5G runs Docker natively without additional hardware, which makes it a complete edge deployment platform in a compact rugged enclosure.
What's the difference between the 5GK and 5GN models?
The 5GK is the US and FCC variant, certified on AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, U.S. Cellular, and FirstNet, and it's the model Waveform carries. The 5GN is the global variant with a slightly different band set, and we don't list it because it duplicates US carrier coverage at the same price.
