How to Keep Critical Operations Alive with Rugged Dual 5G — ISA 141 Knows the Answer

Is it a little extra? Absolutely. But that’s exactly how we like it.
Dual 5G, rugged, fanless, compact — totally extra, and one of a kind.
And let's be real, your IT/OT teams have been waiting for a solution just like this.

With all that been said we know you already want one of these ISA 141s—because yeah, it is THAT good. But still wondering how or where it actually fits in? No worries, we’ve got you.

The Train Doesn’t Stop—Neither Does Your Connection

Close your eyes and imagine: You’re on a train, the rhythmic chu-chu-chu-chu of the wheels echoing through the carriages. Whether you’re vibing with your dearest on vacations or on a business trip with a little less enthusiasm, the last thing you want is a network disruption. Public 5G is the go-to connection as the train races ahead, but the moment it hit that tunnel? Boom! Signal drop, your call’s lost, that email's stuck. You’ve been there, right?

Been before but just because ISA 141 was not there. Now. Relax and enjoy 5G failover and hybrid connectivity. As the train glide into the tunnel (chu-chu-chu-chu), system automatically switches to the Private 5G network (chu-chu-chu-chu), keeping you connected like nothing ever happened (chu-chu-chu-chu). Public and Private 5G. Simultaneously. No gaps. No interruptions, seamless connectivity, wherever you are, whenever you need it.

From Chaos to Control—The Power of Dual 5G Redundancy

Close your eyes and imagine: The sun’s beating down, machinery’s roaring, and dust swirls through the air — it’s a construction site alive with motion and noise. Workers with tablets and helmets move across the grounds, cranes swing steel beams into place with precision, and autonomous vehicles haul materials. Everything’s humming... until a sudden network hiccup. Sensors freeze, remote controls lag, drones lose connection mid-flight. It could be straight out of an apocalypse movie, but it’s not, thanks to the smart OT team had already installed a bunch of ISA 141s.

Now, breathe easy. With dual 5G redundancy, this smart construction site doesn’t even flinch. Public 5G handles the heavy lifting across open zones, but when signal strength dips — between towering steel structures, deep pits, or brutal weather — the system instantly flips to a dedicated Private 5G network. Public and Private 5G, working together in real time. Machines stay smart. Workers stay safe. Deadlines stay on track.

Next Stop: Total Network Security

Sure, we can ride our imaginary train wherever we want. But let’s face it—no matter where we land—be it a smart factory, logistics hub, waste management facility, or smart grid—ISA 141 has your OT network locked down. Public or Private 5G? Mix them however you want. While you’re moving forward, ISA 141 ensures your network stays ahead, working overtime so you don’t have to.

ISA 141 Is All About Making Right Connections

Are you an ISV or DevOps chasing the next big thing in critical infrastructure? Spoiler alert: you’ll be evaluating ISA 141 real soon. Blink an eye, and you’ve got a solution that delivers seamless connectivity and next-level security to get your apps up and running without a hitch.

No app of your own? No big deal—we’ve got verified solution partners in the wings ready to jump in. It’s your move. And with ISA 141, it’s game on.

5G Again?

Yeah, we know. If you’re in the industry, you’re probably a little tired of hearing about it (honestly, so are we). But that doesn’t change the fact—it’s transformed how we connect. What started as futuristic hype is now embedded in our daily tech reality. 5G is reshaping how we live, work, and build the future. And the real impact? It’s only just kicking in.

Let’s Talk Public

Public 5G networks—think Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile—have done a solid job delivering faster speeds and greater accessibility for the masses. Great for your phone, your tablet, and your streaming habits. But when it comes to critical operations that demand zero lag and airtight security, public 5G starts to show its cracks. Public networks deliver convenience. Precision and security? Not so much.

Let’s Talk Private

Private 5G is where things get serious. Designed for industries where every millisecond and every packet counts, private 5G gives you full control—over speed, latency, coverage, and most importantly, data. It’s custom-built for environments that can’t afford a single glitch: smart factories, hospitals, airports, ports, campuses. Yes, it costs more. Yes, it’s more complex. But if you’re running mission-critical operations, it’s not just a network—it’s an investment that pays off big-time.

Private networks are often deployed in environments far beyond climate-controlled data centers—think factory floors, outdoor installations, power substations, transportation hubs, or remote industrial sites. These locations demand hardware that can handle extreme conditions without compromising performance. That’s where fanless design and wide temperature support come in.

The Spec as Rugged as the Industries ISA 141 Powers

NEXCOM delivers industrial-grade solutions built to survive and thrive in the real world. We’re not just talking about basic ruggedness—we’re talking fanless, wide-temperature designs engineered to withstand everything from bone-chilling cold to blistering heat. And the connectivity? Not one, but dual 5G modules for high availability, load balancing, and true failover resilience. Whether you’re deploying in a smart factory, smart construction site, or the middle of nowhere, NEXCOM’s ISA 141 ensure your network stays online, secure, and lightning-fast.

Built to thrive where others break, the ISA 141 strong inside out starting from hardware. Powered by Intel’s quad-core Atom^® processor, it delivers secure, high-performance ICS connectivity with three 1GbE ports—including a combo port for extra flexibility. But the real game-changer? Dual Wi-Fi and dual 5G—giving your OT machines, IoT sensors, and AGVs/AMRs wireless coverage, even in the most unforgiving environments (middle of nowhere, still remember? Hah).
