There is no point paying more for something that you won’t be using. InHand offer their routers with either the bare minimum, such as 5 x Ethernet ports and an antenna connector: or with 5 x Ethernet ports, WiFi, RS232/RS485 on a terminal connection and 4 x digital input / outputs. This gives the user full flexibility for their application.
