Sparwan presentation of Billion M120N
Presentation of the M2M industrial 4G router from the BILLION range.
As soon as you take it out of its box, you understand that this BILLION 4G router is made for professional and industrial applications.
The industrial 4G router - M150 BILLION in brief
The M150 is the compact and versatile 4G LTE router in the range. It adapts to most applications, whether in electrical cabinets, technical rooms or on board.
It has dual WAN connectivity (automatic failover), a 4G LTE CAT4 module, 2 RJ45 Ethernet ports, and an RS232/RS485 port.
The design and finish are neat
On this M150 router - from the BILLION industrial range, we notice at first glance a very resistant metal case (not aluminum), a minimalist design and an importance given to the finishes.
The RJ45 Ethernet ports have a metal spacer, the SMA connectors with locking lock nuts and the power supply on the phoenix terminal block with fixing screws. So many things that you can't find on the "low-cost" versions
Once in hand, the weight of the device confirms the apparent resistance.
Almost everything in the box
With this M150 router, but also with all versions of the BILLION M range ( M120N / M500), all the basic accessories are included.
- 2 elbow antennas
- A 220 VDC power supply
- A quick start guide
- A cable for the DC power supply
- A DIN-RAIL mounting kit
- A wall mounting kit
- Skates for installation on a desk or in a computer bay
Router configuration interface, simple, complete and ergonomic

Conclusion
The ULTIMATE Digital Management Solution for Mine Safety - Billion Electric and 3rdParty System Integrators Develop 'Early Warning' Functionality for South African Mines
Provide reliable and stable connectivity, to ensure the normal operation of connected equipment and applications
To successfully enable digital integration solutions for the mine's wireless network infrastructure. Billion Electric works with system integrators to provide wireless mobile network connectivity between mining vehicles and the mine's central control office. Secure and stable communication is established for connectivity between 100 mining vehicles and various mobile production items including prospecting, mineral separation, mining, conveyor, and security monitoring equipment.
More agile, simple, and flexible connectivity applicable to ever-changing customer demands (including various remote working demands)
The Billion M120N can be integrated with various in-vehicle systems. The high extension capability of 4 x GbE WANs and 1 RS-232/RS-485 allows for the successful integration of numerous types of monitoring equipment, for optimal digital management. It can switch automatically to provide a mobile network hotspot in the quarry for employees to receive the latest status online and stay in touch with the central control office, without interruption. It supports GPS positioning and a smart dispatch system to conduct control and management throughout the loading, carrying, and unloading processes of the mining vehicles.
Real-time image monitoring and transmission
Due to the bulky size of the mining vehicles, safety accidents can easily occur due to the 'blind spot' of the driver. The image system and infrared detecting system is installed on each visual angle of the mining vehicle to prompt the driver via image or warning if there are pedestrians or other equipment around the vehicle. The data and messages related to the monitored video are promptly sent to the central management platform and displayed on the screen of the vehicle. The operator receives the message to activate the smart security monitoring system.
Achieve reliable and consistent connectivity
The Billion M120N integrated with multi-WAN can automatically fail-over to a backup connection. The dual SIMs can deliver mutual backup via LTE communication to provide a highly reliable uninterrupted connection. By installing a durable Billion M120N, a constant connection is maintained with the mining vehicle, allowing for timely image transmission. The monitoring system sends various data detection reports regularly to the control office to achieve digital automation and message integration. In the case of an emergency, it can request real-time assistance, respond quickly or conduct automatic protection to ensure a safe working environment for the field operators and Mine personnel.
Reliable, stable, and secure VPN network
Billion M120N supports various VPN protocols, including IPSec, PPTP, L2TP, GRE, and OpenVPN. By using a Virtual Private Network (VPN), built-in Network Address Translation (NAT) firewall, password protection for system management, and the system's capability to prevent DoS attacks, including Land Attack and Ping of Death, the malicious attack is blocked to secure data transmission security and provide protection for the financial data confidentiality of enterprises.
High stability with low repair cost
The temperature resistance, anti-vibration design of the Billion M120N can withstand the harsh mining environment experienced by the vehicle during operation. The robust design of the router ensures minimal maintenance and vehicle downtime. Its ignition sensing can automatically detect ignition and shutdown to prevent running out of battery power.
Dual network backup VPN to create the ideal digital management solution
The digital management solution for Mine safety.
Billion Electric and system integrators successfully developed a wireless mining solution to assist mining groups in improving the reliability and stability of communication equipment via cameras. The system improved the safety and productivity of the mine by enhancing operating efficiency and helped reduce production costs.
