Ethernet cable & modem

I’m looking for ruggedised, high speed IP rated Ethernet cable to connect a digital video recorder to an off-board modem.

Looking for modem recommendations too, should be at least CAT4, 4G, 150Mbps UL, 50Mbps DL and ruggedised.

The environment is automotive so both need to withstand noise to prevent data disruption. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

You can go for Cat5e or Cat6a shielded twisted pair (STP) cables. For modem you can consider Sierra Wireless AirPrime EM7565.

Hi thanks for the suggestions. The Modem looks great, do you know how I can get protective casing for it?

Thanks again.

If you need a ruggedized device intended for transportation you may want to consider Peplink MAX-TST-LTEA-W-T https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/peplink/MAX-TST-LTEA-W-T/13635839

Thank you

Would there be anything at the other end of the price scale?

Between 60 - 120 GBP?

Hello @mscull,
Digi-Key does not have anything in that price range that meets your requirements.
