If we compare RUT200, RUT240, and RUT241, we will see equal measurements, interfaces, and most of the hardware specifications; However, there are some differences under the hood:
*'''RUT200''' - CPU: '''Mediatek''' MIPS 24KEc 580 MHz / RAM: '''128 MB''' / Module: '''QUECTEL''';
*'''RUT200''' - CPU: '''Mediatek''' MIPS 24KEc 580 MHz / RAM: '''128 MB''' / Module: '''QUECTEL''';
*'''RUT240''' - CPU: '''Qualcomm''' Atheros Hornet MIPS 24Kc 400 MHz  / RAM: '''64 MB''' / Module: '''QUECTEL''' or '''MEIG''';
*'''RUT240 (end of life)''' - CPU: '''Qualcomm''' Atheros Hornet MIPS 24Kc 400 MHz  / RAM: '''64 MB''' / Module: '''QUECTEL''' or '''MEIG''';
*'''RUT241''' - CPU: '''MediaTek''' MIPS 24KEc 580MHz  / RAM: '''128 MB''' / Module: '''QUECTEL''' or '''MEIG''';
*'''RUT241 ESIM''' - CPU: '''MediaTek''' MIPS 24KEc 580MHz  / RAM: '''128 MB''' / Module: '''QUECTEL''' or '''MEIG''';
*'''RUT260''' - CPU: '''MediaTek''' MIPS 24KEc 580MHz  / RAM: '''128 MB''' / Module: '''QUECTEL''' or '''MEIG''';
*'''RUT271''' - CPU: '''MediaTek''' MIPS 24KEc 580MHz  / RAM: '''128 MB''' / Module: '''QUECTEL''';


There are also differences in the certifications and standards they support. RUT240 has the most certificates and can be utilized worldwide.
These devices belong to different generations and are certified for various regions and compliance standards. Overall, they are quite similar, with only minor variations in hardware that should not significantly affect performance. The RUT260 has a higher mobile category and carrier aggregation compared to the RUT200, RUT240, and RUT241. One notable device is the RUT271, which incorporates 5G RedCap technology, marking a significant advancement in IoT connectivity by bridging the gap between low-power wide-area networks. Additionally, there is a version of the RUT241 that features eSIM functionality, utilizing SGP.22 technology for eSIM management.<br>
RUT241 and RUT240 go hand in hand; however, if compared, RUT241 currently has fewer certificates than RUT240; Nevertheless, eventually, RUT241 will catch up with RUT240 in the number of certifications and standards. Out of RUT2xx series devices, RUT200 has the least certificates and can only be operated in certain regions.

The RUT9** series of industrial routers offer a combination of cellular, Wi-Fi, and wired connectivity options, along with automatic WAN failover and GNSS capabilities. Serial communication interfaces enable the integration of a broader range of devices into the solution ecosystem, while I/O ports and advanced RutOS software facilitate equipment control, automation, and event notifications. These devices come from different generations and are certified for various regions and compliance standards. They share many similarities, with only minor hardware differences that are unlikely to significantly affect performance. Additionally, the RUT956 and RUT955 have the capability to expand memory using an SD card. A notable exception is the RUT976, which features 5G RedCap technology. This advancement represents a significant leap in IoT connectivity by effectively bridging the gap between low-power wide-area networks and enhanced 5G capabilities. Additionally, there is a version of the RUT951 with Active PoE In/Out capabilities, which allows it to power connected devices via the 802.3at/af standards and also enables the RUT951 itself to be powered through Active PoE.<br>

Currently, RUT950 and RUT955 have more certifications than their alternatives and can be used more globally, however, eventually, RUT951 and RUT956 will catch up certification and approval-wise.

*In contrast, the RUTX14 comes equipped with an LTE CAT 12 mobile module capable of reaching speeds of up to 600 Mbps independently. To optimize its performance, it requires one main and three AUX mobile antennas.

*On the other hand, both the RUTX50 and TRB500 boast new 5G mobile modules. However, their modem architectures necessitate different antenna configurations. The RUTX50 requires four main mobile antennas to attain speeds of 3.3 Gbps, while the TRB500, due to comparatively weaker hardware, requires only one main mobile antenna to achieve speeds of 1 Gbps.

<span style="color: #0054A6;"><font size="5"><u>What is the difference between managed and unmanaged switches?</u></font></span>
*Unmanaged switches are plug-and-play devices without an operating system or configuration options. They cannot be used to control ports, VLANs, security, or traffic policies.
*Managed switches run on our TSWOS operating system, which provides advanced management features like [https://wiki.teltonika-networks.com/view/TSW202_Dynamic_Routes route control], [https://wiki.teltonika-networks.com/view/TSW202_VLAN VLAN] configuration, [https://wiki.teltonika-networks.com/view/TSW202_Ports Power over Ethernet (PoE)] management, [https://wiki.teltonika-networks.com/view/TSW202_QoS Quality of Service (QoS)], L2, and some L3 (excluding firewall, NAT capabilities), layer support, and more. They offer greater flexibility, scalability, and control, making them suitable for complex business or enterprise networks.
*Currently, only 5 switches in our portfolio have management capabilities: [[TSW202]], [[TSW212]], [[SWM280]], [[SWM281]], and [[SWM282]].
